Getting Started

Just got your Omega and wondering how exactly to get to making IoT things? Go through our Get Started Guide and you’ll learn and accomplish the following:

• Properly connecting the Omega to a Dock and providing power
• Learning your Omega’s unique name (it’s just Omega- and the four bolded hex digits on the Omega’s cover)
• Connecting the Omega to your WiFi network
• Updating the Omega to the latest firmware

Then you’ll be ready to start on the projects!

If you’re curious, here’s some more recommended reading:

• Connecting to the Omega’s Command Line
• Using the Console, the Omega’s web-based virtual desktop
• An overview of all of the Onion hardware

If you’re excited to get building, go on ahead. Remember to go back to the Onion Documentation if you’re looking for clarification on how something works!
