Getting Started with reComputer Industrial

reComputer industrial series offers full systems including NVIDIA Jetson™ Xavier NX/ Orin Nano/Orin NX/ modules, ranging from 20 TOPS to 100 TOPS AI performance. Preinstalled with Jetpack 5.1.1, reComputer industrial simplifies development, ideal for bulding applications of video analytics, object detection, natural language processing, medical imaging, and robots, which brings digital transformantion across industries of smart cities, security, industrial automation, smart factories.

reComputer industrial comes with a passive heatsink and a fanless design, making it ideal for use in demanding environments. The passive heatsink allows for efficient cooling without the need for a fan, reducing the risk of component failure due to dust or other contaminants. The fanless design also reduces noise levels and power consumption, making it suitable for use in noise-sensitive environments and minimizing energy costs.

reComputer industrial has 2 RJ45 GbE ports, one of which is a PoE PSE port for providing power over Ethernet to devices like IP cameras. This eliminates the need for a separate power source and makes it easier to deploy network devices in areas without readily available power outlets. The other GbE port is used to connect to a network switch or router, enabling communication with other devices on the network and access to the Internet.

Hardware Overview

Full System

Carrier Board

Flash JetPack

reComputer Industrial comes pre-installed with JetPack 5.1.1 on a 128GB SSD along with the necessary drivers. This included SDK components such as CUDA, CUDNN and TensorRT. However, if you want to reflash Jetpack to the included SSD or to a new SSD, you can follow the steps.

note

If you want to use SSDs with reComputer Industrial, we only recommend you choose the 128GB, the 256GB, and the 512GB versions from Seeed.

Prerequisites

You need to prepare the following hardware before getting started with reComputer Industrial

  • reComputer Industrial
  • Provided Power Adapter with power cord (US version or EU version)
  • Ubuntu 20.04 Host PC
  • USB Type-C data transmission cable
  • External monitor
  • HDMI cable
  • Keyboard and Mouse
info

We recommend that you use physical ubuntu host devices instead of virtual machines. Please refer to the table below to prepare the host machine.

JetPack Version Ubuntu Version (Host Computer)
18.04 20.04 22.04
JetPack 5.x
JetPack 6.x

Enter Force Recovery Mode

Now you need to enter recovery mode on the reComputer Industrial board in order flash the device.

  1. Connect a USB Type-C cable between USB2.0 DEVICE port and your PC.
  2. Use a pin and insert into the RECOVERY hole to press recovery button and while holding this.
  3. Connect the included 2-Pin Terminal block power connector to the power connector on the board and connect the included power adapter with a power cord to turn on the board.
  4. Release the recovery button.
note

Make sure you power on the device while holding the RECOVERY button or otherwise it will not enter recovery mode

On the Ubuntu host PC, open a Terminal window and enter the command lsusb. If the returned content has one of the following outputs according to the Jetson SoM you use, then the board is in force recovery mode.

  • For Orin NX 16GB: 0955:7323 NVidia Corp
  • For Orin NX 8GB: 0955:7423 NVidia Corp
  • For Orin Nano 8GB: 0955:7523 NVidia Corp
  • For Orin Nano 4GB: 0955:7623 NVidia Corp

Flash to Jetson

Here we offer 2 different methods of flashing.

  1. Download the entire system image we have prepared which includes NVIDIA JetPack, hardware periheral drivers and flash to device
  2. Download official NVIDIA L4T, use the included hardware periheral drivers and flash to device
note

The first method download is around 14GB and the second method download is about 3GB.

* The image files from both Download1 and Download2 are the same. You can choose the link with the faster download speed.

The source code for the above images can be found here

  • Step 2: Extract the generated file
sudo tar -xvf <file_name>.tar.gz
  • Step 3: Navigate to the extracted file from before and execute the flash command as follows
cd mfi_xxxx
sudo ./tools/kernel_flash/l4t_initrd_flash.sh --flash-only --massflash 1 --network usb0 --showlogs

Now it will start to flash the system image to the board. If the flashing is successful, you will see the below output

  • Step 4: Connect the board to a display using the HDMI connector on the board and finish the initial configuration setup

After that, the board will reboot and will be ready to use!
