1. Quick Start
Follow these instructions to start using your IoT-Box:
1. Download the IoT-Box Debian image from http://www.shiratech-solutions.com/products/iot-box/.
2. Extract the file and flash the image to an SD card (using Win32DiskImager or any other similar tool).
3. Insert the SD card to the IoT-Box.
4. Connect the IoT-Box to your PC using a micro USB cable via the Console micro USB
connector and turn the power switch on.
5. Connect to the IoT-Box via the serial interface (using TeraTerm/Putty or any similar tool)
with a 115200 baud rate.
6. Type:
~$: nmtui
to launch the Wi-Fi settings and connect to Wi-Fi. Once Wi-Fi connection has been
established you may update and upgrade the Debian OS using:
~$: sudo apt-get update
~$: sudo apt-get upgrade
7. Test Bluetooth connectivity using the following commands:
~$: hciconfig
~$: hciconfig hci0 up
~$: hcitool scan

8. To locate Low Energy Bluetooth devices (BLE), use the following command (after executing
the first two config commands in the previous step):
~$: hcitool lescan
9. In /usr/shiratech/demo/v1.1 folder you will find an Azure IoTC connectivity demo
application. In order to run the demo, you may refer to the readme file located in this
folder.
10. /usr/shiratech/SPI/ contains the leds.sh test script:
./leds.sh red –lights up the LED’s in red. (green/blue/off also apply).
./leds.sh –(without a parameter) will print the leds.sh script usage instructions.
