Installing the Mission Specialist Thruster Configuration Tools

NOTE – You must use -c /dev/vr485 after each command when accessing the putty when operating with Workhorse Splashproof Controller, for example:

vr_enum -c /dev/vr485

./vr_debug_putty.py [node_ID] -c /dev/vr485

If you have any questions regarding the install, please contact us at VideoRay support  support@videoray.com or +1 610-458-3000 Option 1.

  1. Download the thruster config tools on your desktop computer using the link below:
    1. https://videoray.hosted-by-files.com/quarterdeck/install/videoray_config_thruster-2_0_2.tgz
  2. Move the file onto a USB flash drive
  3. Connect the USB flash drive containing the file to the OCC
  4. Copy the file from the USB into the home directory on the OCC (the “file drawer” icon should automatically take you to the home directory, /home/videoray/)
  1. Once the file is in the home directory, open the terminal screen and type these 2 commands (Ubuntu commands are Case Sensitive):
  1. tar -xzf videoray_config_thruster-2_0_2.tgz  (press enter)
  2. sudo dpkg -i videoray_config_thruster.deb  (press enter)

Type password: “videoray” and press enter (the password will not show while typing)

Exit out of the terminal command screen.

The icons should now appear on the OCC desktop with a “page” icon.  Double-click on each icon and “trust and launch” each program when prompted.  You will now have the thruster programs activated for both the Pro 5 and the Defender on your desktop.
