Expert installation on stratux device - TomBric/stratux-radar-display GitHub Wiki

Installation for stratux versions eu027 or newer

stratux-radar-display can run also directly on your stratux device. You can find an example of a case with everything installed in the wiki. Connect the displays to the GPIO pins of the Stratux. Installation is only for expert users! To install the software perform the following steps:

  1. Connect your stratux to a network, e.g. by integrating into your WLAN: go to "Settings" and add your local wifi network. This will connect your stratux to your local wlan. Alternatively connect Stratux via network cable.
  2. Enable a writeable persistent filesystem in the settings tab by setting "Persistent Logging".
  3. Reboot and log on to your Stratux as user pi, directory /home/pi
sudo systemctl start systemd-timesyncd; sleep 2; sudo systemctl stop systemd-timesyncd
sudo apt update -y
sudo apt install git -y
git clone https://github.com/TomBric/stratux-radar-display.git
sudo /bin/bash stratux-radar-display/image/configure_radar_on_stratux.sh
sudo reboot

This will take some time to finish.

  1. After stratux has rebooted, connect your device (PC, tablet or mobile) to the "stratux" network.

  2. Check that you can connect to your stratux web interface by opening http://192.168.10.1 in your browser

  3. Open the radar configuration web interface opening http://192.168.10.1:81 in your browser. Do not forget the ":81", the configuration server is listening on port 81. As default the configuration web server is active for 10 minutes after reboot.
