Gaspard: /* Installing tools & sources */

== Network setup ==

The first step is to plug the camera on the network and make sure it is powered and has a decent IP.

[[Image:3COM POE.png]]

The easiest way to get started is to connect the computer to the camera (without passing by any switch or router) so that you can manually set your IP to match the [http://192.168.0.9 camera's default]:

My laptop ip:

IP: '''192.168.0.10'''
mask: 255.255.0.0

Camera default ip:
192.168.0.9

If you are like me and changed the IP of the camera but forgot the value, you can use an ip scan tool like [http://www.angryziber.com/ Angry IP scanner].

Once you can connect to the camera using it's default IP, you might want to change it (from the web browser). My network is based on 10.0.0.x addresses, so I changed the camera's IP to

IP: '''10.0.0.99'''
mask: 255.255.255.0

The IP of the virtual machine (bridged) running Ubuntu is:

IP: 10.0.0.41

== Installing tools & sources ==

I created a VM machine that runs Ubuntu and followed the steps described in the article [[Elphel Software Kit for Ubuntu]]. What I did:

1. I set my sources list to multiverse
2. installed the minimal set of packages
3. installed Cris-GCC
3.1 could not install using the sources
3.2 installed using binary distribution (you need to register to download, it's free): [http://www.axis.com/techsup/dl.php?prodid=1587&url=../ftp/pub/axis/tools/cris/compiler-kit/old/cris-dist_1.64-1_i386.deb cris-dist_1.64-1_i386.deb].
4. configure nfs. /etc/exports content:
/nfs 192.168.0.0/255.255.0.0(rw,sync,no_root_squash)
/nfs 10.0.0.0/255.255.0.0(rw,sync,no_root_squash)
5. installed sources for elphel cameras in ~/git/elphel

Gaspard:

I am an artist writing open source software for live performances. A couple of years ago, I started writing [http://rubyk.org rubyk], a movement recognition software for a dance piece called [http://gaspardbuma.org/en/project38.html home].

Rubyk is now becoming a general purpose patcher for signal processing with lua scripting and many nice features. Since I will need proper video for my next project, I looked for the best tool for the job and found elphel !

Now I am working on compiling rubyk inside the elphel camera so it is easy to configure through [http://opensoundcontrol.org/ osc] by using [http://rubyk.org/en/oscit oscit] protocol.
