The project was ported from NC353 camera series with minor changes related to:
- reading the extension board information
- having 4 sensor ports instead of a single one
The camera system type is stored in the EEPROM of the 10389 extension board and is not reset by software updates
Depending on the initialized ports the configuration files are stored in /etc/elphel393/:

/etc/elphel393/autocampars0.xml
/etc/elphel393/autocampars1.xml
/etc/elphel393/autocampars2.xml
/etc/elphel393/autocampars3.xml

If the configuration for a port not found on boot but it was initialized - a new default configuration is created
If accessed from a browser supports:
- reboot - works for single cameras, for multi camera systems works for the master camera that is supposed to reboot others.
- cancel sync - if the camera was booted from NAND flash - cancels syncing of the overlayfs layers if not needed - as any changes to the configuration files through the web interface raise a sync 'flag' (/tmp/overlay_sync)

- the top table gives access to change the camera/sensor parameters through parsedit.php interface. The parameters are split into groups.
- the bottom table allows to save/restore the configuration of all parameters. If boot from NAND flash the changed configs must be synced to survive reboot - use either reboot button or shutdown -r now ('reboot -f' will not sync overlayfs layers)

Terminal:

$ ssh root@192.168.0.9
root@elphel393:~# /usr/bin/autocampars.php

Output:

Usage: /usr/bin/autocampars.php [--init] [--new] [--ignore-revision]
Initialize camera using saved parameters (usually at boot)

elphel-apps-autocampars is integrated and built using the elphel393 project that sets up everything.
