Software Installation

The simplest way to set up the Raspberry Pi is to download the pre-built SD card image that contains a full operating system with all the necessary software pre-installed.

If you are familiar with command lines, go to Advanced Installation and follow the instructions.

Step 1: Download SEMS OS

Click here to download the custom image. Required: Raspberry Pi 4 Model B (2GB RAM) or better.

Step 2: Write your SD Card

Connect your MicroSD card to your computer. Required: a 8GB MicroSD card or better.
Use a program such as Etcher or Raspberry Pi imager to flash the .img file onto your MicroSD card.

More detailed information on installing a Raspberry Pi operating system image onto an SD card can be found here on the Raspberry Pi website.

Step 3: First boot and use

Mount the microSD card with the OS on your Pi.
Connect your Pi to a display, mouse, keyboard, and power source. When the Pi first boots, you could be asked to complete a quick setup or install updates.
Click on the Desktop shortcut to start using the web app.

Step 4: Captured images

Go to this directory /home/pi/webapp/snapshots to find and download the captured images.
