 +set up a unique hostname - especially, if you have multiple Pi's. for simplicity, i would suggest ''scannerNN'' - replacing //NN// with a number:

 +hostnamectl
 +</code>

 +timedatectl

 +
 +In case you want to use WiFi
 +
 +<code>
 +sudo iw reg get
 +sudo iw reg set DE
 +sudo iwlist wlan0 frequency

 +
 +you should replace above ''DE'' with //your// wifi country; check https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-2

 +
 +<code>
 +sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales
