Configuring The NVIDIA Jetson TX2 - LoCO-AUV/loco_config GitHub Wiki

See page 18 of http://connecttech.com/pdf/CTIM-ASG003_Manual.pdf for switch setting instructions so that the Jetson leaves the fan on at all times and boots on power connected.

If you add a new user to the Jetson, it MUST be in the video group so that the user can log in.
