Upgrade Yaw 3 to Wifi 6E#
The Image below has a more recent version of RaspberryPi OS than the image supplied with your chair, and I had to redevelop portions of the Yaw software to work with changes in the OS, I also added some performance improvements!
Prior to doing this you should execute the following on the chair:
SSH into the device, substitute with the IP of your simulator on your network:
ssh pi@192.168.0.120 The password is pi
Then execute the following command and store the output:
sed -n 's/^License=//p' /usr/local/etc/virtualhere/config.ini
The output is your VirtualHere license, save this! you will need this if your SD ever gets corrupted and you need to reflash the SD, without it you will probably need to re-purchase VirtualHere, as long as you have this you can relicense VH on the same physical Raspberry Pi.
Whats required#
- RPI PCIE Adapter board (MPW7N)
- AX210NGW Nic (AX210 10dbi Kit)
