do you need a 15 inch monitor? just curious of the use case

do you need a 15 inch monitor?
just curious of the use case

segfaultdev.elf•12/2/24, 10:01 AM

and left one for data + power

Ssegfaultdev.elf so you can use right one for only power

matthewflynn_•12/2/24, 10:04 AM

thanks for that - I'll give this a go.

Mmelta101 do you need a 15 inch monitor? just curious of the use case

matthewflynn_•12/2/24, 10:04 AM

yes and no - its a prototype machine where I need to be able to provide the user with touch screen interface to adjust actuator settings.

matthewflynn_•12/2/24, 10:05 AM

so it does need a touch screen interface for interactivity - not necessarily 15" - it was just in the black friday sale lol

melta101OP•12/2/24, 10:05 AM

why not a standard 7 inch screen used normally for rpi

melta101OP•12/2/24, 10:05 AM

you could use hdmi or mipi CSI is even better for that

matthewflynn_•12/2/24, 10:06 AM

the pi is actually mounted underneath the proto unit and I have a 2m cable running to the device.

damn

matthewflynn_•12/2/24, 10:07 AM

I suppose I could - also the external monitor had a nice finish to it and could easily be mounted

it's okay for prototyping but powering a 15 inch monitor won't be much efficient if you think about the facilities it will give

matthewflynn_•12/2/24, 10:11 AM

No i agree - I missed that I could power it through the second usb port. I'll give this a go but I have my finger crossed lol.

segfaultdev.elf•12/2/24, 10:12 AM

okok

matthewflynn_•12/2/24, 10:14 AM

but as an overall solution as long as I provide power through the 2nd port - it shouldn't draw from the pi? Do you think I need to rethink this?

segfaultdev.elf•12/2/24, 10:19 AM

I don’t know actually what will happen then but I think it should have internal protection so that both port can be isolated from each other

matthewflynn_•12/2/24, 12:40 PM

Thanks for all the help guys - I seem to be getting somewhere now (hopefully). I have a usbc cable on power block into display port 2 (for now I just have the usb connection disconnected for testing). when I plug in the HDMI to the monitor the pisture appears for between 5-10 second and then the signal seems to drop? (it remains powered as it flashed red/green/blue cycles). which if I then unplug and replug the hdmi back in the screen appears again.

Now the monitor is mini HDMI so I currently have it connected through a mini HMDI to full HDMI adapter, then micro HDMI to full HDMI?

and

could this be the issue for the signal drop?

Umesh Lokhande•12/2/24, 2:00 PM

Try following steps:
1. Install bullseye os on your raspberry pi
2. After booting raspberry pi enter below commands
sudo raspi-config-> interface-> enable libcamera-> save->rebootsudo raspi-config-> interface-> enable libcamera-> save->reboot
sudo nano /boot/config.txtsudo nano /boot/config.txt(enter this command, scroll down till last [all]) under [all] enter the command "dtoverlay=imx708"
Now, save and reboot raspberry pi
Enter libcamera command-
sudo libcamera -hello t 0sudo libcamera -hello t 0
And check if the camera is detecting or not

In new Raspberry Pi OS you may not get camera. As it is enabled by default.

yes that's what the docs say

check ur configurations in this file sudo nano /boot/config.txtsudo nano /boot/config.txt

if this parts are commented

dtoverlay=imx219

RRenuel Roberts check ur configurations in this file `sudo nano /boot/config.txt`

that file moved to /boot/firmware/config.txt/boot/firmware/config.txt and I have checked it

Renuel Roberts•12/2/24, 2:06 PM

then i suggest u update and reboot the system

ZZacckOsiemo yes that's what the docs say

Umesh Lokhande•12/2/24, 2:06 PM

So I suggested to go got Bullseye release of Raspberry Pi OS and then try Camera. last time i tried with new RPi OS , there were lot of issues. This may save your time.

Do these optioons matter if I am on headless rpi?

it depends on on which RPi OS you're using Camera with

It's been 6+ months for me and not sure if the camera-related issues been fixed in new updates of rpi os but if you find it difficult to resolve then move to A stable legacy version of Raspberry Pi OS Bullseye.

ZacckOsiemo•12/2/24, 3:47 PM

trying to an IMX219 camera to work with a rpi 0 2w, reading the forums I think its a combo of the new OS and the camera not working. Solutions exist for the Bullseye version of the OS but not for the newer ones.

do you need a 15 inch monitor? just curious of the use case
