Thanks for the clarification Rhyse!
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. 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 .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? It would be very helpful if you provide some assistance on how can I get my laptop and the rockchip on same network either through wifi or usb. Looking forward to your response!

Can you throw some light on hoe can I connect the Flex case E with my laptop over ethernet for initial SSH setup. The datasheet section it mentions that it has 2 pin ethernet interface Eth+ and Eth-. But I am not sure how can i connect it to my laptop. Is there some sort of a specific ethernet I should use?

Hi, Thank you for the clarification on GPS data .I’m working with the Audesse FlexCase-E, which uses a Rockchip compute module with an onboard WiFi interface.

On the SmartCase, we were able to get SSH access to the Rockchip Linux system by exposing the raw Ethernet pins, wiring them to an RJ45 connector, and connecting that to a laptop. This brought the device and my laptop onto the same network, allowing SSH.

For the FlexCase-E, the Rockchip module has an onboard WiFi chip. I want to know:

How can I enable or access SSH on the Rockchip module over WiFi?

Specifically, I’d like to understand:

Does the FlexCase-E ship with WiFi AP mode enabled by default?
(i.e., should I see any Rockchip/FlexCase WiFi SSID after powering the unit?)

If WiFi AP mode is disabled, what is the recommended method to enable WiFi (AP or STA mode) on the Rockchip so that I can SSH into it?

If WiFi cannot be used directly for SSH,
what is the supported way to reach the Rockchip Linux console (USB-OTG, UART debug port, etc.) on the FlexCase-E?

My goal is simply to get the Rockchip module on the same network as my laptop so I can SSH into it, similar to how we did via the raw Ethernet pins on the SmartCase.

Any guidance or documentation on enabling SSH/WiFi access on FlexCase-E would be really helpful. Thanks!

Hi
I would like some clarification on how can I connect raspberry pi to the internet .I am going for using USB dongle but i wanna know what type of dongle it supports.I have somehow figured out the rpi has pre installed drivers for RTL8192cu.Is there any other option i can connect rpi to the internet

Thank you for the prompt response Amir,

I would also like to understand the correct workflow for accessing GPS/GNSS data from the Quectel module and sending telemetry data (GPS + any sensor/CAN data) to the cloud.
Any initial configuration needed on the device or FlexConnect dashboard before data begins uploading

If there is a recommended sequence after the SSH connection has been set up, it would really help to know the expected bring-up flow for FlexCase-E.

Thank you,
Shweta

Hi Rhyse,

Thanks for your earlier clarification. I’m continuing to work with the FlexCase-S and had a few follow-up questions regarding the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 3+ (headless variant) inside the unit.

CM3+ Power-On Behavior
After powering the SmartCase, I’m not seeing any clear indication that the CM3+ has actually booted.
Could you share what the expected signs of a successful CM3+ startup are on this variant?
For example, are there any status LEDs on the board, or does the module take a certain amount of time before it becomes active?

Accessing the CM3+ Interface
Since this is a headless rpi setup, I want to understand the proper way to access the CM3+ interface for debugging and development.
We also need this access because part of our workflow involves verifying internal communication between the NXP S32K3 and the Raspberry Pi CM3+.
Could you guide us on the correct way to reach the CM3+ (e.g., SSH details, default hostname, or any other supported access method) so that we can confirm the connectivity and interaction between these two components?

I would also like some clarification regarding the OTA capabilities available for the FlexCase S variant.
Specifically, I want to confirm:
Whether this SmartCase variant supports OTA updates.
If supported, what level of OTA is provided—application-level, firmware-level, or configuration-only.
The recommended procedure or workflow to follow for performing OTA updates on this platform.

A brief overview of the expected OTA pipeline (device → telematics module → backend → update deployment) would also be very helpful for our integration.

Thank you, and looking forward to your guidance.

Best regards,
Shweta
