5.3 Set up the Terminal Window
(4) 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
(5) If you are running from Linux, type:
# sudo minicom –s
And then configure by doing the following:
-Select "Serial Port Setup"
-Ensure the correct Serial Device is specified (typically "/dev/ttyUSB0")
-Set option E ("Bps/Par/Bits") to 115200 8N1
-Press <return>
-Select "Exit"
5.4 Power on the board
(6) Connect the 12V power supply and turn on the switch. If all is configured properly, you should see the
board booting up within the terminal window. After about a minute, you will see the RPS Main Menu.
Note the local IP address and netmask (in this example, it is 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.
5.5 Ensure your PC has a proper IP address
(7) To be able to communicate with the RPS, the PC that you are communicating from needs to have at
least the same first two parts of the IP address. For example, if the RPS 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). Ensure that this is the case.
Note that the first two parts being the same are based on a value of netmask of 255.255.0.0. If
netmask were 255.255.255.0, for example, then the first three parts of the IP address would have to be
the same.
After you are done, make note of the address you set your PC to. This will be important in the
streaming step.
