Hello Community,

After setting the IP Address of Verdin AM62 Using Putty how can I see the Torizon OS Screen because whenever I have connect the display using HDMI it is not showing anything.
So I am trying with Tight VNC but in that case the board’s IP that i have changed using Putty it is not shown it shows the different IP and not connecting to the Internet.

so How can i see the Torizon OS Screen like we have seen windows screen in windows os

To view the Torizon OS screen on your Verdin AM62, you can use either a direct HDMI connection or remote access via VNC/RDP. Here are the steps to troubleshoot and set up both methods:

Direct HDMI Connection

  1. Check HDMI Connection: Ensure that the HDMI cable is properly connected to both the Verdin AM62 and the monitor.
  2. Device Tree Overlays: Verify that the correct device tree overlays for HDMI are enabled. This can be done by checking the device tree configuration and ensuring the HDMI overlay is applied.
  3. Weston Container: Make sure the Weston container is running. You can start it with the following command:
    docker run -d --rm --name=weston --net=host --cap-add CAP_SYS_TTY_CONFIG -v /dev:/dev -v /tmp:/tmp -e ACCEPT_FSL_EULA=1 torizon/wayland-base:latest
  4. Monitor Settings: Ensure the monitor is set to the correct input source (HDMI).

Remote Access via VNC

  1. Start Weston with VNC: Run the Weston container with VNC enabled. Use the following command:
    docker run -d --rm --name=weston --net=host --cap-add CAP_SYS_TTY_CONFIG -v /dev:/dev -v /tmp:/tmp -e ACCEPT_FSL_EULA=1 -e WESTON_VNC_ENABLE=1 torizon/wayland-base:latest
  2. Check IP Address: Ensure you are using the correct IP address of the Verdin AM62. You can find the IP address by running ifconfig or ip addr on the device.
  3. VNC Client: Use a VNC client (like TightVNC) to connect to the Verdin AM62 using the IP address and port 5900.

Troubleshooting IP Address Issues

  • Network Configuration: Ensure that the Verdin AM62 is properly connected to the network and has a valid IP address.
  • Static IP: If the IP address changes frequently, consider setting a static IP address for the Verdin AM62 to ensure consistent connectivity.

By following these steps, you should be able to view the Torizon OS screen either directly via HDMI or remotely using VNC.

Best regards,

Greetings @Ravi1,

What version of Torizon OS are you running? Was it the Easy Pairing variant of the image?

What carrier board are you using with the AM62? What HDMI port are you using on the carrier board if it has multiple?

Best Regards,
Jeremias

Hi @Ravi1 ,
Please read your older posts about VNC as we have already discussed this multiple times .
For HDMI (Verdin AM62 + Mallow), let us know how you are connecting HDMI.
Please see the datasheet as AM62 does not have a native HDMI

@sahil.tx @jeremias.tx
For this i need Verdin DSI to HDMI Adapter? For the Displaying the OS Screen

Verdin AM62 does not have native HDMI output, so there will be no output on HDMI port.
You have the below 2 options.

  1. DSI Display . It can be connected to the MIPI DSI interface available on the back side of mallow carrier board (X4).
  2. LVDS display. It can be connected on LVDS connector available on from side of mallow carrier board (X12) .

Note : I modified my last reply little bit (corrected my mistake), please re-read it.

Thank you Sahil

I am not able to read your last modified replay.
There is no other way to connect my another monitor to Verdin AM62.
Because for DSI Display and LVDS Display we have to buy the Particular display, So there is no other way to use our monitor as Verdin AM62 Display

Hi @Ravi1,

For HDMI monitor, Verdin AM62D can be connected via Verdin DSI to HDMI adapter with Dahlia or verdin development board not with mallow carrier board
