System setup
- Write the Raspberry Pi latest SD card image on a 8GB (or more) SD card
- Plug the SD card into the Raspberry Pi SD card slot.
- Connect the HDMI cable from the monitor to the Raspberry Pi HDMI connector
- Connect the 22 pins flex cable between the camera and the interposer. Make sure to use the cable with contacts on opposite sides.
- Connect the 15 pins camera cable between the RPi and the P1 connector of the interposer. Make sure to use the cable with contacts on the same sides.
- Connect the interposer to the power supply
- Connect the RPi to the power supply
- Connect a USB mouse and keyboard to the Raspberry Pi. It's possible to use either a mouse & keyboard combo or a separate mouse and keyboard
Running the evaluation application
Once Linux boots you'll see on the HDMI monitor the Linux desktop and on the top left corner a shortcut to the script named video_cfg.sh. Double clicking on the icon will start the media-ctl configuration script. The script is running in background without any pop ups.
After the script was executed once, one should double click on Qt V4L2 test Utility icon to start the video capture application. A window like bellow should open and the play button should be pressed to start the capture.
The capture window should look like bellow.
Power off sequence
- Open a terminal and type sudo poweroff. This will safely power off the Raspberry Pi and ensure that the SD card is properly unmounted
- remove the 5V supply from the Raspberry Pi
- remove the 5V supply from the interposer
Getting the software
The GMSL Linux kernel drivers, the complete Linux distributions for the supported processing platforms, and software user guides can be found on the Analog Devices GMSL github repository.
