My Lego EV3 projects using Lejos

• EV3 clock - youtube preview

1. Downloaded JDK ejdk-8-fcs-b132-linux-arm-sflt-03_mar_2014.tar.gz
2. Create jre using : bin\jrecreate.bat --profile compact2 --dest ejre1.7.0_60 --vm client
3. Use 7Zip to create ejre-7u60-fcs-b19-linux-arm-sflt-headless-07_may_2014.tar archive with above folder inside
4. Use 7Zip to create ejre-7u60-fcs-b19-linux-arm-sflt-headless-07_may_2014.gz with above file
5. Copy it to SD card
6. (Optional) Copy wpa_supplicant.conf (see below wifi setup)

Check PAN menu for ip address.

1. Connect usb cable
2. In PAN menu check USB client - set IP address from the same pool as IP on PC (USB Ethernet/RNDIS Gadget). For example 169.254.90.1 on EV3 and 169.254.90.196 on PC.
3. Exit menu - the ip will be set when PAN restarts

Entering password from EV3 menu is not the best option, so better hardcode some network settings.

1. Use ssh to connect to EV3 - user root, password blank.
2. Use wpa_passphrase to generate a passkey
3. Create a /home/root/lejos/bin/utils/wpa_supplicant.conf, eg.:

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant

network={
        ssid="mySSID"
		key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
        psk=myEncryptedPassword
}

First line is taken from /home/root/lejos/bin/utils/base_wpa_supplicant.conf

1. Check IP in pom.xml
2. mvn install - this will build, test and upload project to EV3
3. Run it from EV3 menu
