Oak-D POE x Fitlet3

WouterOddBot

Hi,

I have a Fitlet3 (https://minidis.com/FITLET3) and an Oak-D POE camera hooked up with my LAN. This setup works fine as I can run software on the Fitlet that uses the camera.

However I'd like to bypass the LAN and connect the camera to the Fitlet directly via its second ethernet port. But that doesn't work. Running nmcli d gives me the following output

oddbot@oddbot-fitlet:~$ nmcli d DEVICE TYPE STATE CONNECTION eno1 ethernet connected Wired connection 1 eno2 ethernet connecting (getting IP configuration) Wired connection 2

And after a few minutes calling nmcli repeatedly:

oddbot@oddbot-fitlet:~$ nmcli d DEVICE TYPE STATE CONNECTION eno1 ethernet connected Wired connection 1 eno2 ethernet disconnected --

The Fitlet runs on a default Ubuntu 22.04 installation with not much more installed than Ros2.

I don't know whether this is something with the Fitlet or the Oak-D, so I'm asking both the company behind Fitlet and Luxonis. Can you help me with this?

Thanks in advance,

Wouter

Hi WouterOddBot
If you have direct connection, then DHCP (likely) isn't running, and device will fallback to its static IP. By default, its static IP. You could either manually specify its IP, or set static IP of the camera / your filet computer. I hope this helps!
Thanks, Erik

Hi erik ,
Thanks for your response. I hope to have a look at it soon!

Kind regards,

Ok thanks @erik. That was easy. Just had to set the Fitlet's ethernet port the a static ip within range of the oak-d default ip.
