Issue recognizing camera MSU-0107 using M0135 dual camera board

Firmware and settings for running MSU-0107 with the M0135 dual camera expander board. I have been trying to find a firmware and camera setup that will recognize that the camera is connected.

@daniel-p-nikolov , can you please provide some details:

are you using voxl2 or voxl2 mini
which camera port is M0135 adapter connected to ? J6, J7 or J8
which port on M0135 is the MSU-0107 connected to (JL or JU) ? JL and JU stands for Lower and Upper.
which extension flex are you using to connect the camera to M0135? For example M0036 (long one) or M0074 (short one)

There are many possible camera configurations and you have you set up the camera drivers correctly, depending on where the camera is plugged in. I can help you once you provide more information.

Alex,

Currently using the following Config:

M0107 -> FPC-M0036 Cable -> M0135 Upper Port -> J7 Port.

Using the same setup as in the M0107 Product Page.

Tried various setups, however, it does not see any camera connected to the VOXL2.

@daniel-p-nikolov I would recommend doing a custom camera config setup. What you can do here is run voxl-configure-cameras C and then vim into /data/modalai/custom_camera_config.txt and then proceed to edit the file for this port and position - so in this case it would be

J7 lower info is hires, imx412, and false.

Then proceed to rerun voxl-configure-cameras C again and then rerun voxl-camera-server and see if cameras are detected. There could be a mismatch occuring of the port and such when using the non custom script.
