        @Wesley-Gunawan Hi Wesley, I faced a similar issue recently. I was using IMX678 Hires Camera in J7U. The camera was detected when I run voxl-camera-server -l, even the green led light on the sensor glows but I didn't get any data run I run voxl-inspect-cam -a. I had an alternate IMX678 camera and without changing any config, I replaced it and it worked. I don't know what is wrong with the first sensor. I should probably do RMA, but yeah, if you have another sensor, give it a try!

          @Wesley-Gunawan can you please share a picture of your setup? It needs to match a camera config found here: https://docs.modalai.com/voxl2-camera-configs/

          Often when a camera can't be found:

          1. it's installed backwards
          2. the cable isn't fully connected or the connector is damaged
          3. the wrong camera config has been configured during setup

            Hi, the camera is connected correctly because when the configuration or installation setup isn't correct, voxl-camera-server wouldn't even detect the camera's connection, in this case it does, but no input from the camera has ever been acquired. Here is the image of the setup:
            IMG_2510.jpeg

            Is there any other information you need to help me debug this issue? It's been over a week and I need it working as soon as possible or else I have to return the whole kit. As for the camera defect possibility suggested by a user in this forum last week, I already tried swapping the camera and it still doesn't work.

              @Wesley-Gunawan It looks like you are using a C08 config. https://docs.modalai.com/voxl2-camera-configs/#c8---hires-only

              Have you tried voxl-configure-cameras 8 ?

              voxl-camera-server documentation for troubleshooting recommends running voxl-camera-server -d0. Can you try that and paste the output?

                @Moderator It is camera configuration 8, the board wouldn't detect the camera otherwise (tried that before) so I'm assuming the camera configuration is correct.

                voxl2:~$ voxl-camera-server -d0

                  @Wesley-Gunawan that looks like it's running properly. Can you open another terminal and run voxl-inspect-cam -a ?

                          @Wesley-Gunawan did voxl-inspect-cam show anything while voxl-camera-server was running? it looks like you restarted voxl-camera-server while voxl-inspect-cam was running.

                          I think the proper steps are:

                          1. update config (done)
                          2. reboot VOXL 2
                          3. run voxl-inspect-cam -a
