Follow along with this guide to set up your Omega2 for the first time. We’ll first
learn how to properly connect your Omega to a Dock and power it up. Then we’ll
connect to it to use the Setup Wizard to have it connect to your WiFi network and
then do some updates.
If you experience issues at any point in the process, try checking our
