SSH gives you a terminal directly on the robot. Everything below assumes you know two things:

​
Via Wi-Fi

1

Join the same network

Make sure your computer and MARS are on the same Wi-Fi network (or your phone hotspot).
2

Find your robot's hostname

Open the Innate app → Configuration → WiFi → Current hostname.No custom name yet? The default is mars, i.e. mars.local.
3

Connect

Enter the password goodbot when prompted.
The hostname is derived from the robot’s display name:
  • Uppercase letters become lowercase
  • Spaces and special characters become -
  • Duplicate hyphens are collapsed; leading/trailing hyphens are removed
Set up SSH keys so you never type the password again:

​
Via Ethernet (preferred wired method)

1

Connect Ethernet cable

Connect an Ethernet cable between your computer and MARS.
2

Set static IP on your computer

Configure your Ethernet interface to 192.168.50.1 with netmask 255.255.255.0.
3

SSH to MARS

Run ssh jetson1@192.168.50.2.

​
Static IP setup by OS

1

Open adapter settings

Go to Settings -> Network & Internet -> Advanced network settings -> More network adapter options.
2

Open Ethernet properties

Right-click Ethernet -> Properties.
3

Edit IPv4

Open Internet Protocol Version 4 (IPv4) and select manual IP configuration.
4

Set values

IP: 192.168.50.1, Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0, Gateway/DNS: leave empty.
5

Apply

Save and reconnect Ethernet if needed.

​
Via USB-C (last resort)

USB-C is not recommended. Use this only when Wi-Fi and Ethernet are unavailable.
1

Connect USB-C

Connect a USB-C cable between your computer and the Jetson USB-C port on MARS.
2

Use USB network address

The Jetson exposes a USB network interface at 192.168.55.1.
3

SSH to Jetson

Run ssh jetson1@192.168.55.1.
This mode is useful for first-time recovery or network debugging.
