Start camera server on raspberry pi
- From fastx3 or mcclogin (not control computer) ping:
ping e320pi

- Turn on pi / toggle pi via IP-table power strip if it is not responding (takes < 1 minute to come online for pings)

- ssh facet@e320pi

- change to folder for vimba livestream server (currently v0.03) and open config.xml
facet@e320pi:~/v0.03$ gedit config.xml - Make sure that the right camera is added as first camera in the list. Move other cameras to a different main section to be save. The config file should look like this:

- Save and exit gedit
- Make sure the server is not running:
killall vimbaserver - Open a "screen" session:
screen - Start the server:
./vimbaserver
This should start a camera server listening on port 42001 for a USB3 camera with device ID: "DEV_1AB22C011FE8"

- If the camera is working, the server should queue ~10 frames:
