Modules

Installable integrations extend the platform without changing the Community OS base.

Offline installationVenture-signed module packages can be installed from USB by Venture Service.

The base image contains no FC202, VFD, pump, irrigation, pool, HVAC, gate, or other equipment implementation until the required module is installed.

Core records, users, modules, logs, trends, notifications, backups and licensing are stored in the Community OS data area.

Software updates

Venture Service

The local Linux service account opens an XFCE desktop with browser, filesystem, terminal and diagnostic tools. It is separate from Community OS web accounts.

Local account: venturetech. The bench password is preconfigured for offline commissioning.

Community OS users

These accounts control access to the Community OS web application. They are not Linux login accounts.

Help & User Manual

Community OS core remains useful with no equipment modules installed.

Community OS base

Home, community records, users, notifications, weather, logging, licensing, updates, and the module manager are core platform services.

Equipment modules

VFDs, irrigation controllers, pools, HVAC/R, access systems, Venture hardware and third-party integrations are installed separately. An FC202 installation is one optional VFD module, not part of the base operating system.

Venture Service

Use Service Desktop for filesystem, browser, terminal and diagnostic access to the computer. The venturetech Linux account is intentionally separate from Community OS web authentication.
