Credentials loading

Credentials are loaded by the PW-Sat2 Ground Station Application as a zip file and allow you to upload received frames to cloud-based service.

Obtaining and loading credentials

1. Obtaining credentials
   To obtain credentials go to our cloud service - but first you have to create an account (sign up) and then (sign in) to access the page. Download zip archive with your credentials.

2. Run the application and load credentials
   When credentials are not loaded main window of the application looks similarly as in the picture below:

Push button "Load credentials from file" or "Load credentials file" - a new window should pop up - choose downloaded zip file with credentials:

Once credentials are loaded properly and authentication on server is successful the icon and your e-mail are visible in the application:

If credentials are wrong or obsolete the application shows problem with authentication:
It's also the case when server is down or your internet connection doesn't work.

Important information on re-generating credentials

Each time you re-generate (download) credentials from webpage you have to load them again in application - just push "Load credentials from file" and select new file. Credentials are loaded into application immediately - no restart is needed.
