      This Raspberry Pi image (updated 2/11/25) has the following features, but you don't have to use all of them:

      • Home Assistent direct support. No need for Internet - the agent talks to HA over the LAN if you configure it to.
      • When the Pi boots, it will audibly tell you the pair code if you plug in headphones to the Pi's headphone jack.
        • Just plug it into your ethernet, boot the Pi, and listen for the code,
        • Log into your account, click your name, click Pair, then type the pair code. 9dacce44-e866-4c3e-b3eb-2d8b045e5473-image.png
        • This avoids having to connect a monitor or ssh in, to read /root/paircode.
      • Creates a panel in your account called "IR Remote" that you can control using an infrared remote control.
        • Unlike the Orange Pi Zero 2 in this article, you'll need to plug in the IR receiver that comes with the IR remote.
        • You can also use the Blue Dot app via Bluetooth. The image includes a command called Pair Bluetooth that will give you 1 minute to pair your cell phone.
        • You associate each panel button with a command, then you can run those commands using the physical infrared remote control buttons.
      • Creates a "Configure Wireless" command to configure a series of wifi networks in priority order. You run the command with the Parameters button and specify your wifi network SSID's and passwords like this: network1,password1,network2,password2,network3,password3
      • Creates two "Garage Door" commands to control two relays you can connect to the Raspberry Pi.
      • Creates commands to control a colored LED strip like in this bike project.
      • You can plug in a physical button to toggle the LED strip on or off.
      • During boot the LED's will turn:
        • Red to indicate the Raspberry Pi is booted.
        • Blue to indicate it has Internet access.
        • Green to indicate it is talking to the TRIGGERcmd API (after you pair it with your account).

      It should show up on your LAN as triggercmd-rpi.

      The default password for the "pi" user is "triggercmd" but you should change it.
