===OS download and install===
1. Firstly, need prepair a micro sd card, a minimum 16 Gb class 10 memory card is recommended.
2. Download an appropriate OS image for the PiKVM, the url link is https://pikvm.org/download/ or click [https://files.pikvm.org/images/v3-hdmi-rpi4-latest.img.xz this one] to download it. (Please use the V3 HAT OS)
3. Flash OS image into Micro SD card
:''' 1) How to installing the Operating System''' (CM4 without eMMC)
:Refer to [https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/computers/getting-started.html#installing-the-operating-system Official installation tutorial]
:'''2) How to flash OS onto the eMMC of CM4? (CM4 with eMMC)'''
::a. Short nBOOT&GND, refer to the picture below.
::[[File:X650-IMG-5474-1.jpg|500px]]
::b. Connect Type-C OTG to your computer
::c. Power the X650 via PWR Type-C with your 5V Power adaper
::d. Then rerfer to [https://www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2020/how-flash-raspberry-pi-os-compute-module-4-emmc-usbboot this tutorial] to flash pikvm OS
::e. Remove the jumper of nBOOT&GND after flashing is complete, then restart your device;
4. Power the device, then open explore to login the pikvm web ui.
===Enable RTC ===
Due to different RTC chips with official PiKVM hardware, you still need to '''configure RTC''' to make RTC work normally.
Firstly, insert the '''C1220''' button battery. run the following command in web terminal window:
1. switch to 'root' user
su root
then type the password, and the default password is 'root' also.
2. Switch OS to writable mode
rw
3. Edit the /boot/config.txt file, and change line <code>dtoverlay=i2c-rtc,pcf8563</code> to <code>dtoverlay=i2c-rtc,ds1307</code> (due to use the different RTC chip).
sudo nano /boot/config.txt
Then save & '''reboot''' the device;
4.Test & setting RTC, write&read the time of Raspberry Pi to RTC DS1307
date
sudo hwclock -w
sudo hwclock -r
5. Swith OS to readonly mode
ro
===Enable OLED display===
Run the following command in web terminal window:
rw
systemctl enable --now kvmd-oled
ro
If you are using <code>PiKVM OS V3 Pre-Assembled</code>, the OLED configuration is already pre-installed, you can ignore this step.
===Enable pikvm hdmi audio===
Refer to [[Enable pikvm hdmi audio]]

<summary>Why the device does not show the video only display <b><span class="tb_red">No Signals</span></b>?</summary>
<ul><li>Double-check that the video capture device is connected correctly and tightly. For the CSI bridge, this should be exactly the camera port;</li>
<li>Some laptops do not output any signal until you switch the output (usually via the FN + and an F5 key on the keyboard).</li>
<li>Your computer maybe enter sleep mode, please exit sleep mode</li>
<li>If your desktop only has a VGA display port, there may be no video signal when you use <b>VGA to HDMI adapter</b>, and there is no way to solve this; However, you can try to lower the resolution and restart the PC to test, but the probability of success is very low.</li>

<span style="color:red;font-weight:bold"details> <summary>Q: Why is the X650 not working?</spansummary> A: <br /> 1. First you need to make sure your physical connection is correct, or you can email us at support@geekworm.com to confirm your physical connection; <br /> 2. Make sure to use the right pikvm OS. <br /> <p> <a href="/File:Pi4-V3-HAT.png" class="image" ><img alt="Pi4-V3-HAT.png" src="/images/thumb/b/be/Pi4-V3-HAT.png/800px-Pi4-V3-HAT.png" decoding="async" width="800" height="616" srcset=" /images/thumb/b/be/Pi4-V3-HAT.png/1200px-Pi4-V3-HAT.png 1.5x, /images/b/be/Pi4-V3-HAT.png 2x " data-file-width="1443" data-file-height="1112" /></a> </p> 3. Make sure CM4 is tightly connected with X650. (This is very important, and this error often occurs) <br /> <p> <a href="/File:X650-IMG-5605-2.jpg" class="image" ><img alt="X650-IMG-5605-2.jpg" src="/images/thumb/4/4c/X650-IMG-5605-2.jpg/800px-X650-IMG-5605-2.jpg" decoding="async" width="800" height="519" srcset=" /images/thumb/4/4c/X650-IMG-5605-2.jpg/1200px-X650-IMG-5605-2.jpg 1.5x, /images/thumb/4/4c/X650-IMG-5605-2.jpg/1600px-X650-IMG-5605-2.jpg 2x " data-file-width="2000" data-file-height="1298" /></a> </p> </details>

<summary>Does the X650 support PoE power? How to enable PoE Power?</summary>
<p>
A: The X650 reserve the POE port, but need to use with customized POE
module to support PoE power, and the customized POE module still not
release now. And the X650 does not support the Raspberry Pi official PoE
module. Recommend to use PiKVM-A8 kit, if you need PoE power.
