Seems that a PHD or or higher is required to download the SD-Card image. I successfully registered, got authorized to download export restricted software but this doesn't seem to include export to countries next go Germany,..

I get the following:

Why is this here? Not helping yourselves by making it non-user-friendly to download the software needed to make this thing work...

Apparently you can get everything you need here to compile your own image: https://github.com/siemens/meta-iot2000

I may compile the minimal and example images tonight, and put them up on Dropbox for others.

Today i got my IOT2020 and i can't wait to start developing. But i'm not authorized to download the SD Card Image even i registered myself 3 days ago.

Pretty disappointing and i can not understand this problem.

Who at Siemens can tell me how long i still have to wait until i get the necessary permission ?

Sorry for this long process in order to download the example image. 

But this is necessary due to export restrictions. 

Best regards!

If I compile the image source located here: https://github.com/siemens/meta-iot2000/tree/master/meta-iot2000-example and post a link to the resulting wic image, would that be acceptable?

 Hello mobilefirst,

the authorization process can take up to seven days. You will be informed by Email if the process is finished.

I'm still waiting for my authorization to go through. In the meantime, I've successfully - or so it seems - built the minimal image but I'm struggling to understand if the board is correctly booting from the SD card or not as I don't have a UART cable at the moment and the board doesn't seem to be connecting to my local network. 

 Hi, did you see the note in the manual/elsewhere that by default it connects with a static IP of 192.168.200.1? You have to change the configs if you want it to use DHCP or something else.

Hello,

I will download the latest image and see if the Telit Wireless HE910 module is recognized or not. It is on the sample Galileo Gen 2 board.

On the meantime I will try and build a bootable image. I followed most of the instructions on setting up the yocto repositories, etc. etc. One of the urls:

https://github.com/siemens/meta-iot2000/blob/master/meta-iot2000-example/README.md

Indicate that the "Then download meta-iot2000 (if not done already) and enter the build environment.", how is it downloaded ? Where does it go?

BTW, I work for Telit ...

Thanks

David

I have finally received the link to download the full image after a manual clearance, but the download keeps failing. I have made multiple attempts and invariable it fails. 

Has anyone else faced this issue ? Any known issues with the server ?

Hi bergmanu,

I don't get any error code. The chrome download just ends abruptly and the file is incomplete. The maximum size I have managed to download is 1.9gb

Hi all,

new image version V2.1.2 is now available!

Best regards!

Is there a changelog somewhere? I am especially interested whether the I2C/SPI problem is fixed in this version so that I don't have to issue the modprobe command anymore.

Not a real chengelog but close enough I think...

Hello,

I got the same problem due to export restriction authorization. Is there a way to obtain the SD Sample Image without waiting a week?

I think this is a bit embarrassing, because I received the IOT 2040 but actually I cannot use it because software needed to make it working is not included inside the hardware box. So I have to register to download manuals and so on, but it is very curious that I have to wait a manual check to download the software NEEDED for correct setup and working.

Well, this is not a good beginning, even if you are an individual or an enterprise.

Hallo,

ich habe das Example _Image_2_1_2 erfolgreich installiert und alles funktioniert. Jetzt wollte ich das ipt_log Kernel Modul nachinstallieren, finde es aber nicht im Opensource_Software.zip . Wo finde ich den die YOCTA Pakete und damit hoffentlich das ipt_log Kernel Modul Paket?

Gruss

Hi community,

the Image Version V2.1.3 is now available!

Best regards!

 Thanks!

ModbusRead / ModbusServer is working with node v6.9.2. Great!

Question. After installing several node-red contribs I would like to copy the image. It works via Win32DiskImager but this software copies the complete SD-card. For example I have a 32Gb card the image is also 32Gb. Is it possible to copy only the relevant data/sectors to an image. I think it will be a lot smaller in size than the 32Gb.

Hi Bergmanu,

Could we please get an NTP client in the next image? e.g.: timedatectl, ntpd, ntpdate, etc. Being that the IoT2020 does not have a battery backup, time must be set on every power up.

Hello,

I played a lot with the IOT2040 and image 2.1.2.

With the new image 2.1.3, I cannot find the good old "Expand File System" in the "iot2000setup".

With version 2.1.3:

I looked in all the elements, but can't find anything to expand to my full SD card size.

At the first look I thought "Oh... there must be a new manual "Seting up the SIMATIC IOT..." ", but it is still 2.0.

Any advice please?

Best regards,

Hugo

Oh!...

jancumps

If you are into rolling your own linux image, here are the instructions to add NTP.

@Jan. Your post may give me the courage to attempt a clean build. I've never done that. Windows and some Mac is where I spend all my time. 

@Bergmanu: Request for NTP remains should you beat me to building a new image (likely!)

Hi guys,

Does this image have MySQL, MariaSQL, SQLite or something like this?

If not, there is some link of how to install it?

Thanks you all!

JDarius

Perhaps this can help you, though I'm not sure...

 ""  For this purpose the database “sqlite3” "" That's what i wanted, thanks!

i want to know the latest image i download from forum whether can apply to IOT2040 or not ? because i find the yocto system  can not start up in this sd card image which i download in this forum.

thank you so much~

Have you read this thread on how to set up your IOT?

Normally, there shouldn't be any difficulties with using the example image and SIMATIC IOT2040.

New Image v2.4.0 --> see here

Possible can be added from the author at the first post at the first page... or just delete this topic to make it more clear what is newest version.

Regards,

Lars

Hi Bergmanu,

I've noticed that version 2.6.1 is available. Please could you update the first post with the features or non features of the image?

Regards,
