Plug the adapter into the "DC Power" plug (Refer to the above image). There is no power button on the Orin board and it will boot up as soon as you plug it in.

Connecting to the Vision Computer

There are two methods of connecting to the board: ssh, and direct connection in Desktop mode.

Note that the credentials for the Jetson are:

Username: spot-vision

Password: srcl2023

Connecting via SSH:

To connect via remote ssh, you will need:

  1. Laptop with networking enabled
  2. Micro-B USB to USB-A cable

Connection via remote ssh can be established using the USB-Ethernet interface on the Jetson or over WiFi. If using the cable, plug in the Micro-B cable into the Jetson's USB-C port. Either way, open the terminal on your computer and try pinging the Jetson at its default IP address, which is 192.168.1.115 for the main Orin board. If the ping response is successful, you can now ssh into the device using the ssh command:

You will be prompted for the password, type the password, srcl2023 and press enter. You will now be logged in to the Jetson remotely.

Connect to the Jetson in Desktop mode.

If the remote ssh is not working, you may use the Jetson in Desktop mode to sign in. You will need:

  1. An external monitor with power
  2. HDMI cable
  3. A wireless USB-A keyboard+mouse set

Connect the monitor to the Jetson by using the HDMI cable provided. Plug the keyboard and mouse USB receiver into the Jetson. You should see a login screen on the monitor. The username spot-vision should be selected by default. Enter the password srcl2023 and press the login button to complete the login process. You can continue using the Jetson as a regular desktop computer and proceed with development.
