Thank you dear Tohid 🙏

can iot-stack also be also installed on iot-2050 from Siemens ?

[@blociot]

That's a great question. I haven't tested it but will do and update you. Since its OS is Debian based, I believe it will be installed with no issues.

​@@blociot it would be great to find out if it works !!

[@blociot]

@@KavehJ I'll test it this week and will updatr you.

[@blociot]

@@KavehJ I just did the test and it's working. I'll upload a short video. I'm using the basic model which has a lower RAM. But still it's working smothly. I'd suggest going with thr advanced version to get more RAM if you're building a large system. Good luck

[@Time4yes]

can i use Raspberry pi 4 also?

[@blociot]

Yes. I have tested with RPi3 and 4 too. They all work. But if your system grows significantly over the time, you might need to upgrade to keep the performance. For learning and testing, any RPi works.

[@Time4yes]

@@blociot Alright, Thanks.
