353/363 Support

2008-05-14T20:03:21Z

Faris: re-order

==Basic Developer Preparation==
These are the steps to compile from CVS and prepare 353/363 software to flash to the camera.

===Preparation===
Before you begin, make sure you have the following packages on your system:
*gcc
*make 3.8
*libcris
*byacc
*bc
*perl
*sed
*tar
*zlib
*md5sum
*ncurses-dev

===Downloading and installing the source===
Navigate to the directory where you will download your source in this example the directory is

<code>
/home/username/workspace/
</code>

Publish your ssh key to the server with the following commands
substituting developer name with your own sourceforge username.
As per instructions at https://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=105686
<code>

$ export CVS_RSH=ssh

$ cvs -z3 -d:ext:developername@elphel.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/elphel co -P elphel353-7.1

</code>

After you download the elphel source change one directory down from your working directory to the folder elphel-7.1

<code>
$ cd ~/workspace/elphel-7.1
</code>

Run the install script, this builds a target source folder.

<code>
$ ./install_elphel_from_cvs
</code>

After that has finished, change to your target directory

<code>
$ cd ../353
</code>

Run the install_elphel script this will download sources and build them to the elphel353 directory

<code>
$ ./install_elphel
</code>

Init the enviroment variables (this is required for a successful php extension build).

<code>
$ cd elphel353
$ . ./init_env
</code>

After that has finished run make to create the first camera images

<code>
$ make
</code>

A directory with the same structure as will be on the camera will be mirrored to: <code>
$ ./target
</code>

After that, follow the [[Reflashing_the_353/363 |flashing instructions]]

Faris: /* The current status */

== The current status ==

The camera's control panel interface is cleaned up, it's mostly minor details that require attention:
*elphel support email on the page
*verification of ip and other settings before they are set
*a disclaimer
[[User:Siraf|Siraf]] 17:04, 28 January 2008 (CST)
*Fix Camera reboot function
*Create restart network daemon function
*Make all fields collapsible/re-collapsible
*Create a copy-to-clipboard function for the camera summary
*Create notification pages for the change network settings functions
*Clean up some of the output information
*Clean up visual styles in general
[[User:Saint17|Saint17]] 17:21, 28 January 2008 (CST)

Please add a link the the software tarball in the camera (docs/elphel353-*.tar.gz), so user not only can see the current software version but actually download the tarball--[[User:Andrey.filippov|Andrey.filippov]] 17:58, 28 January 2008 (CST)
:done [[User:Faris|Faris]] 17:03, 19 March 2008 (CDT)

Add current clock frequencies - response to commands "fpcf -X 0" and "fpcf -X 1"--[[User:Andrey.filippov|Andrey.filippov]] 02:55, 1 February 2008 (CST)

----

"353 developer's board" is 10353 and we may remove it from board config tabs, it should be the second tab - general configuration. the others 10359 & 10369 (not 369) should not be called "developer" board, it will be usable by end-users.

Why not in the tabs call 10369 - General IO board and the 10359 - Image processing board ? --[[User:Polto|Alexandre.Poltorak]] 19:05, 17 March 2008 (CDT)

Is the code uploaded somewhere so i can test it? If not just send it by mail pls with some instructions. Thanks. --[[User:Polto|Alexandre.Poltorak]] 13:09, 18 March 2008 (CDT)

Control Panel

2008-03-17T22:40:39Z

Faris: /* Version 2 */

The control panel is a new feature on the Elphel cameras that allows for:
*A quick scan of camera hardware & software status
*A separate report of camera hardware & software status can be generated, this can be sent to Elphel for the aid of troubleshooting the cameras or for personal use.

==Current Status==
This project is currently in BETA, and can be found at http://''camera address''/UI.html after reflashing with the [http://downloads.sourceforge.net/elphel/elphel353-7.1.7.10.tar.gz latest tarball]

The Control Panel can show the following information
*Camera IP address, Gateway, Broadcast Address, Netmask, and other network settings
*Camera Serial Number
*Camera Software Version
*Processes (Daemons) currently running on the camera
*FPGA info
*fpga_sdram_phase
*Cat_interupts

You can change the following network settings with the Control Panel
*Camera IP address
*Broadcast address
*Netmask
*Gateway

All of this information is included in a status report the camera is able to generate.
This report can be sent to Elphel support for help with troubleshooting.

==Version 2==
This new version of the control panel will feature a tabbed interface and will be written with expansion and modularization in mind.
===Back-end===
The back-end will be a simple php script that calls functions and indexes them into a simple xml file, which is parsed by the javascript in the front-end.
===Front-end===
====General Tab====
The general tab will be the first seen (like the index) and will display general information, quickly accessed, including:
*Camera serial number
*Camera IP address
*Software version
*Date & Time
*Sensor model and revision
*Board Type
*Compiled Camera Status (on expand)
*links:
**source code on the camera
**the Axis website
**the Elphel website
**Sourceforge page
**Admin-bin built-in program

====Configuration Tab====
*Change Network Settings
*Change Date & Time
*Restart Network Daemon
*Restart Camera

====Board Specific Tab====
The board specific tab will change on the type of board plugged in, and the type of developer board being used. It will have tabs and specific options for:
*359 developer's board
*353 developer's board
*369 developer's board

====Help Tab====
The help tab will have some clarifications of the project, but will ''not'' be a substitute for good design.

====Other Changes====
*Confirm Changes Dialogue:
**A simple dialogue that confirms changes (alert) and an ajax-dynamic tab that lists changes (a hidden div)

====Suggestions====
Any suggestions for features or additional camera information you would like to see should be listed here.

==ccam.cgi==
[[Ccam.cgi]] allow to set sensor parameters and get images truth HTTP GET method. This is actually the most complete interface to sensors settings, but will soon become obsolete with our new [[PHP_in_Elphel_cameras | PHP API]].

==imgsrv==

[[imgsrv]] is the fastest way to get images via HTTP. It make use of the circular buffer and can mark images with EXIF data.

==camogm==

[[camogm]] is a command line application running on the camera (can be controlled truth PHP) what can record on a HD/CF/USB-storage-device connected to the camera. It does support EXIF, MJPEG/OGM, Quicktime MOV, JPEG, JP4.

==PHP API==
[[PHP_in_Elphel_cameras]] allow you to set sensor parameters, get images, do any funky stuff what PHP can do.

==ElphelOgm==

==ElphelSrv==

==MPlayer==

==VLC==
See the full [[using VLC to obtain video | article]] more information.

To use VLC, first turn on camera streaming. Open vlc and select file > "open network stream".
You will be presented with a menu. Select "RTSP" and input the url. Then, in the advanced options, select "Stream/Save" and check the settings to fit your needs.

Again, there is more information in the [[using VLC to obtain video | main article]]

Faris: Control panel

== Control panel ==

Check the [[Control Panel]] page for new feature requests.

[[User:Faris|Faris]] 02:28, 1 February 2008 (CST)

Control Panel

2008-02-01T08:27:13Z

Faris: NEW FEATURES NEEDED

The control panel is a new feature on the Elphel cameras that allows for:
*A quick scan of camera hardware & software status
*A separate report of camera hardware & software status can be generated, this can be sent to Elphel for the aid of troubleshooting the cameras or for personal use.

==Current Status==
This project is currently in BETA, and can be found at http://''camera address''/UI.html after reflashing with the [http://downloads.sourceforge.net/elphel/elphel353-7.1.7.10.tar.gz latest tarball]

The Control Panel can show the following information
*Camera IP address, Gateway, Broadcast Address, Netmask, and other network settings
*Camera Serial Number
*Camera Software Version
*Processes (Daemons) currently running on the camera
*FPGA info
*fpga_sdram_phase
*Cat_interupts

You can change the following network settings with the Control Panel
*Camera IP address
*Broadcast address
*Netmask
*Gateway

All of this information is included in a status report the camera is able to generate.
This report can be sent to Elphel support for help with troubleshooting.

==Upcoming Features==
===High Priority===
*A Panel with common links both to the camera, and external links for help:
**links to the source code on the camera
**links to the Axis website
**links to the Elphel website
**links to the Admin-bin built-in program
*The UI.html is making too many requests, perhaps wait for a request to finish before starting a new one? Ask Andrey about his experiences with this. Also see 'ccam.cgi' for examples.
*Clean up the icons and make the front-end more accessible. (Faris is on this).
*An 'advanced' section that refers some of the [[PHP in Elphel cameras | API]] calls for a more thorough call of status.
===Medium Priority===
*Ability to reboot camera from panel
*Ability to start/stop/restart certain processes
*Button to quickly copy Camera Status report to Clipboard

==Spawns of this Project==
[[Easy Snapshot]] and [[Easy Video]] are side projects we hope to merge into the control panel as they progress further.
They would allow the user to take snapshots and video clips from the camera's live stream.

==TODO==
* Elphel support email and other contact information on the page
* Verification of IP and other settings before they are set
* A disclaimer
* Fix Camera reboot function
* Create restart network daemon function
* Make all fields collapsible/re-collapsible
* Create a copy-to-clipboard function for the camera summary
* Create notification pages for the change network settings functions
* Clean up some of the output information
* Clean up visual styles in general

==Suggestions==
Any suggestions for features or additional camera information you would like to see should be listed here.

Phone interface/control

2008-02-01T08:09:11Z

Faris:

==Summary==
Create a camera interface to be used on phones and other mobile devices. Initially web based but possibly changed to a Windows mobile or Java program that can be installed on the device.

==Development Ideas==
*Web-Based
**It's probably best to begin by modifying [[Control Panel]] to have a special way of displaying on mobile devices and once that's done start adding more specialized features for the mobile and branch off from there.

*Mobile Program
**A Java program is probably the best way to approach this as so many PDAs and Phones have Java
**Windows Mobile is also a good platform to use because of how wildly it is used on PDAs and Smartphones
**Apple is supposedly releasing and iPhone SDK a special interface for the iPhone could be developed later with this
