Tutorial #5

Upload

Here, We will explain how to upload to the Raspberry Pi.

State of upload

*To upload, you need a Raspberry Pi device connected to a touch panel on LAN.

After creating the project and confirming the test operation, click the tool button or operate ‘Menu: Run: Upload’ (F6) to open the ‘Tomate-SSH’ window.

Tomate-SSH window

Enter the login information for the Raspberry Pi you want to connect to in each text box.

ServerSet host name or IPv4 address of Raspberry Pi
(Default: raspberrypi.local)
IDSet user name (Default: pi)
PasswordSet password (Default: raspberry)
Directory/home/username/ (Default: /home/pi/)

Check the following items:

  • ☑ Run at Startup
  • ☑ Reboot after uploaded 
  • ☑ Initialize to default setups

After the upload is finished, the Raspberry Pi will reboot and TOMATE will start automatically.

If the upload is successful, the screen created with TOMATE will be displayed and executed on the touch monitor of the Raspberry Pi after restarting.

 In case of upload fails
Please check the user name and password you set.
Also, if the host name (raspberrypi.local) is specified for Server, the upload may fail in rare cases. In such cases, specifying an IP address will mitigate this failure.
To find out the IP address of the Raspberry Pi, enter the following command from the Windows command prompt.

ping -4 raspberrypi.local (or hostname you set)

If the ping is successful, you will get a message like this:

raspberrypi.local [192.168.x.xx] Sending ping 32 byte data:

[192.168.x.xx] is the address of the Raspberry Pi.
Enter this address in the ‘Server’ field.

 Cancelling the automatic start

If you want to cancel the automatic startup,
uncheck ◻ Run at Startup before uploading.
The autostart setting is removed from the Raspberry Pi.
