[EdLUG] Problem with ssh

[Alistair Boak]

Thank you Colin,

I’ve looked at the board inside and its got a serial header and there are instructions on Google, however, the USB to serial cable that I have, the pins are 0.1” spacing and I need to find one with 0.075" or 0.05”, I’ll see what I can do over the coming week I have a micrometer and will check!

Thanks again for getting back to me so soon.

Cheers

Alistair
