Out of the Box Experience
--------------------------
The Modalix DevKit ships with two demo applications preloaded and ready to run — no installation or SDK setup required. This is the fastest way to experience SiMa's platform.

**Prerequisites**
- Modalix DevKit powered on and connected to a network.
- A computer on the same network with a Chrome browser.
- The DevKit's IP address — find it using one of the methods below.

:animate: fade-in
:color: secondary
**From the serial console**, run:
.. code-block:: console
davinci:~$ ip a | grep inet
Look for the ``inet`` address on the ``end0`` interface, for example ``192.168.91.181``.
**From the host machine**, scan the local subnet using ``nmap``:
.. code-block:: console
sima-user@sima-user-machine:~$ nmap -sn 192.168.1.0/24 | grep report
Replace ``192.168.1.0/24`` with your actual subnet. The DevKit will appear as one of the discovered hosts.
For full network configuration options, see :ref:`setup_standalone_network_cfg`.
----
**Launch the Demo Portal**
Open Chrome on your computer and navigate to:
.. code-block:: text
http://:8800
The demo portal will load and present both available demos. Select the one you want to try.
.. note::
If the portal does not load, verify the DevKit is powered on and reachable. You can test connectivity by pinging the DevKit's IP address from the host machine.
----
**Reinstall or Update**
If the DevKit has been wiped, reflashed, or the preloaded demos are missing, run the OOB setup script directly on the DevKit:
.. code-block:: bash
modalix:~$ cd /tmp && curl -O https://tools.modalix.info/setup-oob.sh && bash setup-oob.sh
Connect the DevKit to the Internet first (via SSH or serial console). If a previous OOB version is detected, the script prompts for upgrade confirmation — type ``Yes``. Installation requires authorization: the script prints a code and an ``auth.sima.ai`` URL — open the URL in a browser, log in with your developer portal credentials, and confirm the code.
For advanced setups (live RTSP from a host, rebuilding a demo from source, or RAG File Processing Server), follow the per-demo instructions on the :ref:`hello_sima_run_demos` page:
- `Multichannel Vision AI demo `_ — host RTSP setup, pipeline install, and OptiView setup.
- `VLM demo `_ — LLiMa install on the Modalix DevKit, with optional RAG File Processing Server setup.
