How to Update the Inovato Quadra to the New HamClock Backend

Here's a great video and instructions from Don, W8CPT on updating the Inovato Quadra to the new backend (as discussed in yesterday's (February 25) post).

The written instructions mentioned on hamclock.com, follow Don's video.

 

 

1.  Exit HamClock, then click on the terminal icon at the bottom of the screen.

2.  Type the following command and press Enter: sudo nano /etc/hosts

3.  If asked for a password, the default Quadra password is 1n0v@t0 — note that both characters that look like the letter O are zeros. The password won't show up as you type it — that's normal, just type it and press Enter.

4.  Use the arrow keys to move to the bottom of the file and add this line:  

3.128.20.228    clearskyinstitute.com

5.  Press Ctrl+O (that's the letter O, not zero) to save the file, then press Enter to confirm.

6.  Press Ctrl+X to exit nano.

7.  Type exit and press Enter to close the terminal, then restart HamClock.
