6.3 Set up the Terminal Window
(5) If you are running from a Windows PC, run TeraTerm. Select
“Setup – Serial Port” and set the following:
Port:
Whichever serial port the port is connected to
Baud Rate: 115200
Data:
8-bit
Parity:
None
Stop:
1-bit
Flow Control: None
(6) If you are running from Linux, type:
# sudo minicom –s
And then configure by doing the following:
-Select “Serial Port Setup”
-Ensure the right Serial Device is specified (typically “/dev/ttyUSB0”)
-Set option E (“Bps/Par/Bits”) to 115200 8N1
-Press <return>
-Select “Exit”
6.4 Power on the board
(7) Connect the 12V power supply.
If all is configured properly, you should see the board booting up within the terminal window. After
about 1 to 2 minutes, you will see the
RPS Main Menu (shown on next page).
Note the local IP address and netmask (typically 192.168.81.68 and 255.255.0.0). This is the IP address
of the board. You will need this later to access the web interface.
6.5 Ensure your PC has a proper IP address
(8) To be able to communicate with the board, the PC that you are communicating from needs to have the
same first 2 parts of the IP address. For example, if the board has an IP address of 192.168.81.68, your
PC would need to have an address of 192.168.x.y, where x.y is anything but 81.68 (and not conflicting
with whatever is on your current network, of course). Ensure that this is the case. If necessary, use
the “P” and “N” options to modify the address/network of the board to conform to your network. Note
that the first 2 parts being the same are based on a value of netmask of 255.255.0.0. If netmask were
255.255.255.0, then the first 3 parts of the IP address would have to be the same.
After you are done, make note of the address you set it to. This will be important in the streaming
step.
