  • oakctl : Failed to wait for response

Playing around with the 4-S and trying to get all the tooling to work. I have managed to run some of the (python) example so I know the camera is working (blue light on) and I oakctl sees the camera (see below) but it can't connect to it. Why?

(venv) ➜  oak4 oakctl list

✖ Failed to make connection. Reason: "Comms error: Failed to wait for response"  

Hi,

this error can arise from the fact that you are using different versions of oakctl at host then in the cam, try to install the same one that is installed on the camera.

Hope it helps!

Hi,

you can set the oakctl version on your PC this way:

# oakctl self-update -v <VERSION>
oakctl self-update -v 0.4.1 

But - in general - I'd recommend to do a firmware update first and then get the latest oakctl version (oakctl self-update).

Can I use my version of oakctl (0.9) to update the firmware version of the device as mentioned here ?

    Alain Not for that old version - we made several breaking changes, so it'll be safer to follow this guide (and after the firmware update you can use the latest oakctl).

      Ales That is what I was worried about. Problem is, I can't see the device when using ADB~
