LVDS-MIPI Configuration

After the Jetson Orin Super Developer Kit boots with the LVDS–MIPI CSI-2 Bridge Board connected, follow these steps to configure the camera interface.

Get Configuration folder

Note:

Step 1: Open Terminal on the Developer Kit

  • Press Ctrl + Alt + T

Step 2: Extract Configuration folder

unzip ~/Downloads/OPPILA_ORIN_L4T_36.5.0_INTEGRATION.zip

Config folder contains :

config.sh
MODULE_FC_XOR_LM_<serial_no>.ko
camconf.ko
rc.local
tegra234-p3767-camera-p3768-imx219-C.dtbo
Driver Configuration

Step 3: Navigate to Configuration folder

cd ~/OPPILA_ORIN_L4T_36.5.0_INTEGRATION

Step 4: Grant executable permissions to files

sudo chmod +x config.sh
sudo chmod +x rc.local

Step 5: Execute config.sh script

Execute the config script using the following command, replacing <serial_no> with your LVDS-MIPI CSI-2 bridge board serial number.

sudo sh config.sh <serial_no>

This script file does the following steps:

  • Loads the kernel and configuration module.
  • Loads Device Tree.

Tip

You can find the serial number (for example: 1003) printed on the white sticker on the back of your bridge board.
