Attempted to start Color camera - NOT detected!

Bbtmarti25 · Mar 10, 2022

Hello, I am attempting to use my OAK-FFC-3P for the first time (Mac Catalina 10.15.7). I can't seem to get the depthAPI to recognize my cameras. I have tried with both a set of Arducam IMX477s and AR0234's and neither appear to be recognized.

When I run the hello_word script I get the following error message:

Also, when I run this script to identify the connected cameras, none are detected:

############################################
import cv2
import depthai
pipeline = depthai.Pipeline()

with depthai.Device(pipeline) as device:
print('MxId:',device.getDeviceInfo().getMxId())
print('USB speed:',device.getUsbSpeed())
print('Connected cameras:',device.getConnectedCameras())
##############################################

[18443010411B1CF500] [5.059] [system] [warning] Calibration Data on device is empty
MxId: 18443010411B1CF500
USB speed: UsbSpeed.SUPER
Connected cameras: []

I think the connections look good, and I have tried several times reattaching the cables, but it didn't fix the problem.

I am probably doing something wrong, but I am not sure what else to try.

Thanks,
Ben

Hello btmarti25 ,
Sorry for the inconvenience. Which branch from depthai-python are you using? Are you using the multi_cam_support branch as mentioned here?
Thanks, Erik

Thanks for the suggestion. I was using the main branch. I switched to the multi_cam_support branch. I now get different output, but it still seems to not recognize the cameras:

Hello btmarti25 , did you also run python3 examples/install_requirements.py after switching the branch?

Thanks again. I had not, but I just did, and retried and get a similar result:

Hi @btmarti25 , the FFC cable on the OAK-FFC side appears to be connected on the wrong side, and the pins won't make contact.
Note the no-contact side of the FPC/FFC cable will need to match with the black hinge of the connector.

Duh. I tried it both ways before, but not with the multi_cam_support branch. Now it appears to work. Thanks!
