Hi, I’m trying to use the **IMX462 camera module** with my **Raspberry Pi 3 Model B**, but I’m having trouble getting it to work.
After connecting the camera to the CSI port and enabling I2C via raspi-config, the system still does not detect the camera (nothing under /dev/video*). I followed the steps from the official guide, including the firmware update.
I tried running the following commands:
sudo ./firmware_update -m sku_b0444 -i 1
sudo ./firmware_update -m sku_b0444 -i 2
sudo ./firmware_update -m sku_b0444 -i 4
sudo ./firmware_update -m sku_b0444 -i 10
But all of them result in errors such as:
/dev/i2c-x: File does not exist
Failed to read sensor ID
Write update flag 2 error
I also ran i2cdetect -y 1 and confirmed that **no I2C devices** are detected on bus 1.
At this point, I’m not sure if the camera module is compatible with Raspberry Pi 3, or if the CSI port might be damaged. Has anyone successfully used the IMX462 with Raspberry Pi 3? Any suggestions on what I should check next?
Thanks in advance!Hi,
Could you please post the output of cat /boot/firmware/config.txt and cat /boot/config.txt?
Besides, it would be appreciated if you could post pictures of the hardware connection here. Both camera’s and RPI’s ends.
hi, dion. thank u for your reply
here are the photos of that commands and connections
Use raspi-config to enable i2c.
Hi,
Typo…
It should be dtoverlay instead of dtoverlat. Please correct it in the config.txt file and reboot your pi to take effect.
hi dion, sry for bothering u again, i have already changed the “dtoverlay”, and the device can be found now，but here is another warnig or error about stream.
Hi @haowen
You need to install arducam libcamera to access this camera.
Plz run the commands below to install it.
wget -O install_pivariety_pkgs.sh https://github.com/ArduCAM/Arducam-Pivariety-V4L2-Driver/releases/download/install_script/install_pivariety_pkgs.sh
chmod +x install_pivariety_pkgs.sh
./install_pivariety_pkgs.sh -p libcamera_dev
./install_pivariety_pkgs.sh -p libcamera_apps
