Using multiple cameras on linux

[dinhtuanan]

Hi, I have 2 cameras:

• DFK 33GX265 Serial: 31120204 aravis
• DFK 33GX264e Serial: 39220008 aravis

I'm using Ubuntu 18.04.6 LTS

I plugged both of them through Ethernet Adapter Usb 3.0

Camera Info:

• 
• I dont know why the second camera have no persistent IP, subnet, gateway
• 

When I use tcam-capture application to open camera, I can only open 1 camera that plugged first and the other I can't open

• 

I would like to know how I can use two cameras or how to setting cameras right way

Did I miss something in config cameras?

Hello

you may try to open the second camera with command tcam-capture --reset.

Maybe that helps.

Hi Stefan, thank you so much for replying

I tried your suggestion but nothing happen. Did I do right?

Hello

you are right, that option was available in the precious version. But according to the documentation at https://www.theimagingsource.com/documentation/tiscamera/tcam-capture.html you can open the camera directly by serial: tcam-capture --serial 31120204 and tcam-capture --serial 39220008

I suppose, you can see the live stream of each of the cameras, if they are opened as only camera, right?

Hello

Just one addtion: You use a PI4, so please make sure to use low frame rates:

• avoid GigE Bandwidth exhaustion
• do not overwhelm the weak PI4 CPU Stefan
