I agree this part on the wiki page is a bit misleading. I improved that section to note that the username/pw is only for SSH/FTP access to the camera: http://wiki.elphel.com/index.php?title=Elphel_353_series_quick_start_guide#SSH.2FFTP_connection Feel free to add/improve anything on that page you find is not clear yet, you are the perfect tester now as you are just starting with the camera :) Low FPS is most likely caused by high exposure time. See http://wiki.elphel.com/index.php?title=Elphel_353_series_quick_start_guide#Camera_GUI.28camvc.29_Controls exposure in ms is the slider you want to change, double click turns off autoexposure Regards Sebastian > > I appreciate if you can help me, > > Best regards, > > flavio > > _______________________________________________ > Support-list mailing list > Support-list@support.elphel.com > http://support.elphel.com/mailman/listinfo/support-list_support.elphel.com > _______________________________________________ Support-list mailing list Support-list@support.elphel.com http://support.elphel.com/mailman/listinfo/support-list_support.elphel.com
