MM6108-EKH01 Firmware issue

General
1

HI

I have a set of MM6108-EKH01, one of which has a camera

I was testing to set up connection when suddenly one unit stop working, there is still power, the main fault is the address 10.42.0.1 is no longer able to access the device webpage
I did some trouble shooting and found that the fault follows the SD card.

Meaning if i swap the good SD card to the other unit, it would work and vice versa

I had tried to do a copy and paste the content of teh good SD card to another SD without success.
Was wondering if there is a work arond which i may have missed out.

I read about using Balena Etcher on the manual.
May i know where i could get the firmware and if there is any guide on how to burn in this new firmware?

"
3.6.3 No network access - EKH01
This scenario can occur when the IP address of the device has been changed, and it is not
obvious what the address is. The quickest method here is to remove the SD card and write a
new ûrmware to it using a program such as Balena Etcher to write the SD card from a laptop."

In a pinch, the latest firmware for the EKH01 can be downloaded here.

HI Arien

Is there any doc on how I can burn the image to the SD card?

Or do I just copy the image to the SD card?

For an easy GUI flashing tool you could use Balena Etcher.

HI Arien

Thank for support, have managed to get the set working

And done a video capture latency test.

Result was 0.15 Sec which was quite impressive

Thanks for the support

Great!

Though to be honest, though the latency does show that our chip is doing good work, one of the biggest influences with video latency is what processing steps you have.

In this case, the EKH01 is utilising the RPI’s hardware h264 encoder and WebRTC (via MediaMTX) which is very much designed for low latency and will happily discard frames rather than buffering.

HI James

Thanks for the comments.
I would be trying the range test and Wavemon ping test as well, later.

Could i do a quick check, if our customer would like to develop using chip set instead of modules, would we be able to get support on the hardware files on EKH01 to better understand the scope of hardware and firmware effort needed?
