Hi,

Please see the following page for all the possible credentials needed for SSH connection to the MPU.

You do not need any initial setup for connecting for the first time.
Also please make sure that the Ethernet pins on your harness match the datasheet on the website.

Thanks,
Amir

Hello Shweta,

Thank you for your follow-up questions.

FlexCase-E Data Workflow
• GPS/GNSS Data: Accessing the Quectel module and GPS data is handled (to begin with) through a modem manager script that is pre-included with the FlexCase-E device. This script allows you to manage the modem and access the GPS information as needed.
• Sending Telemetry Data to the Cloud: For the workflow on sending data to the cloud, please refer to our developer introductory page: https://www.audesseinc.com/resources/flexconnect-developer-intro/
We provide guidance on connecting to FlexConnect, as developers are permitted to use a number of different methods.

Regarding your question about the “expected bring-up flow” or sequence, could you please clarify what specifically you are looking for? If you have any additional questions after reviewing the developer introductory page, please feel free to reach out.

Hello Shweta,

Thanks for the information and noted on you establishing ethernet connection. I’ll assume the ethernet connection is done correctly.

Our devices have been shipped with SSH enabled, one you are on the same network (wired/wireless) you should be able to SSH into the device using the same approach. https://www.audesseinc.com/resources/sshconnection/

For WiFi AP mode, I recommend you look up the resources for that particular module. The model number should be on the MPU itself. For our recommended approach, please read the guide in the link above.

SSH is the recommended approach for working with the MPU.If there is anything unclear about the guide link posted, please let me know as that should provide you with all the information you need.

Best,

Hello Shweta,

The Eth+ and Eth- are “MCU” Ethernet, not MPU Ethernet. You will not be able to connect to the MPU through that interface.

The FlexCase E typically uses the USB or Wifi interfaces to establish an SSH connection, as explained in the SSH guide.

Hello Shweta,

Please see my answers below:

I tried connecting with the usb port as well but my pc is not detecting any connection (the usb I have is data cable) and the usb wifi interface is not visible in the ipconfigs and network connections as well.
-Our SSH guide (https://www.audesseinc.com/resources/sshconnection/) in combination with the datasheet for pinout should explain how to initiate an SSH connection to the device.

Also, if wifi is enabled by default then how can I connect to the wifi module ? we don’t know any credentials for connecting to wifi yet and when I power on the rockchip module the the rockchip wifi SSID should be visible but it is not visible in the network vicinity.
-Again, the SSH guide provides guidance on how to do this and includes the default credential details.

The SSH connection page talks about the wifi and usb options being available but exactly what steps need to be followed in order to get the rockchip module and my laptop on the same network is not mentioned.

Also, I have read about the involvement of Bonjour for scanning the network and finding the devices nearby,but I am not very sure about how can I use it to my benefit. Is it really necessary?
-We don’t typically use Bonjour for the FlexCase E, but you may find it helpful in your case.

If you are still having issues, you may want to consider an RMA (https://www.audesseinc.com/resources/forum/) as we can inspect the unit to ensure there is nothing wrong with it. Alternatively, you may purchase engineering support hours for someone to help you work through this issue.

Best,
