When you want to set up a device like the Raspberry Pi without using a display or a keyboard, you do a "headless" setup. I've been wanting to use Node-RED for some of my DIY electronics projects for quite some time now, and I figured I'd put off setting up the RPi long enough! I knew it was possible to do a headless setup, but I never got around to it. I was also disappointed that it came with a mini HDMI port, because I didn't have mini-to-regular HDMI adapter or cable to connect a monitor. When I first received it, I was surprised that there were two separate micro USB ports for power and USB input. I purchased a Raspberry Pi Zero W in December 2017, and aside from plugging in the power adapter to check if the green light comes on, I haven't touched it since. Note : for Pi 3.This is my very first post on dev.to, and I hope you find it helpful. Then you can ssh to your PI and even better update the software. Re log in to the pi and type ifconfig to fins the wifi IP address. After connecting via RS232 edit the file /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_nf using sudo nano If you have a wifi adapter and micro USB to USB lead, you can connect to WIFI. You can change the console getty port/speed/parity settings look at RPi serial connection above. The auto detection won’t pick up changes in bits/stop bits/ or parity. The baud rate is auto detected, the native speed is 115200 (amended above) The auto detection only happens at the login prompt. Either auto baud rate detect at work, or it changes from distro to distro)Įlement 14 no display using the raspberry pi serial console (although I found the baud rate setting wrong everywhere I looked. Just be very careful that you attach it to the correct pins, otherwise your PI will be damaged. If you are brave (or idle) you can connect the +5v line from your serial adapter to power your PI too so you don’t need another usb power lead. You will need some network to get your updates, but apart from that you have a working PI. When the gobbledegook has finished, press return a couple of times, and you should get a login prompt.įor some reason the console and boot up output at different baud rates (Caused by auto baud rate detect, settings above amended so this shouldn’t happen now)Ĭonfigure your PI the usual way. If you get a screen of gobbledegook then good, otherwise swap your TX and RX around. Setup your PC ( I use Tera Term) serial adapter for 115200, 7 bits, even parity, 1 stop bit. Be careful some adapters are only 5V and will damage your PI’s UART pins. With a 3.3v RS232 adapter connect earth and RX/TX to your PI. Install into a sd card and make sure it runs (green light at least) (Requires some prior knowledge of RS232 adapters and serial port setup)įirst start by getting a PI SD image I used Raspian Jesse Light The PIZero Simple setup without network or monitor.
