I got a vicharak Vaaman SBC but I am not able to acess it as I don’t have any external monitor to connect
Hey @iamtushar,
Here, you can find steps to connect vaaman without internet.
Prerequisites
- Attached Antenna with Wifi
Steps
- Press Recovery Key for 4-5 seconds located at nearby 3.5 mm Audio Jack which turn on Vaaman’s internal hotspot with ip
10.9.8.7
-
Now, You can find
VaamanHostWiFi in another device that can be mobile or laptop. ( WiFi Password :12345678) -
Make sure, you have installed ssh in another device.
-
Now, To connect, Run below command
ssh vicharak@10.9.8.7
Type, yes to connect, and the Vaaman’s default Password is 12345
You can also access Vaaman in Mobile using termux application.
- Download termux application.
- Run
ssh vicharak@10.9.8.7
If the above does not work,
You need to flash a new EMMC 11_02_2025 image from the below link:

I sucessfully got into the recovery mode but on ssh i am getting below response
ssh: connect to host 10.9.8.7 port 22: Connection refused
I hope, you are connected to VaamanHost Wifi.
Yes I am connected to VaamanHost
There might be a chance, that Vaaman’s internal ssh service is not active properly.
Try first to restart the board,
Then when you get blinked blue lights on Vaaman, after a few seconds,
Again Press the recovery button to turn on the hotspot.
Still, it does not work, We recommend flashinga new image.
