The FPC board is a printed circuit supported by flexible insulating material. The connector efficiently transmits camera data for stable and reliable image capture.

3. Opsætningsvejledning

The OV2640 Camera Module is commonly used with ESP32 development boards. Follow these general steps for integration:

1. Prepare the ESP32 Board: Ensure your ESP32 development board (e.g., ESP32-CAM) is ready for camera module connection.
2. Connect the Camera Module: Carefully insert the flexible flat cable (FPC) connector of the OV2640 camera module into the corresponding FPC socket on the ESP32 board. Ensure the connection is secure and correctly oriented.
3. Strømforsyning: Connect the ESP32 board to a stable power supply. Refer to your ESP32 board's documentation for specific power requirements.
4. Softwarekonfiguration:
   • Install the necessary drivers and libraries for the ESP32 and OV2640 camera in your development environment (e.g., Arduino IDE, ESP-IDF).
   • Upload example code or your custom firmware to the ESP32 board. This code will initialize the camera and handle image acquisition.
5. Test: After uploading the code, test the camera functionality. This typically involves accessing a web server hosted by the ESP32 to view the camera feed or capture images.

4. Betjeningsvejledning

Once the camera module is successfully set up with your ESP32 or other compatible MCU, operation is primarily controlled through software. The following outlines general operational aspects:

• Billedoptagelse: Use the programmed functions in your MCU firmware to trigger image capture. The camera supports various resolutions and frame rates, configurable via software.
• Billedbehandling: Captured images can be processed directly on the MCU or transmitted to another device (e.g., a computer, server) for further analysis or storage.
• Video streaming: For applications requiring live video, the module can stream video data, often over Wi-Fi when paired with an ESP32.
• Linsejustering: The lens may allow for manual focus adjustment by gently rotating the lens barrel. Perform this carefully to avoid damage.

5. Vedligeholdelse

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your OV2640 Camera Module, observe the following maintenance guidelines:

• Håndtering: Handle the module by its edges to avoid touching the lens or the FPC contacts. Static electricity can damage electronic components.
• Rensning: If the lens becomes dusty, gently clean it with a soft, lint-free cloth or a specialized lens cleaning brush. Avoid using abrasive materials or harsh chemicals.
• Opbevaring: Store the module in a dry, cool environment, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Keep it in anti-static packaging when not in use.
• Miljøbeskyttelse: Protect the module from moisture, dust, and corrosive substances.

6. Fejlfinding

If you encounter issues with your OV2640 Camera Module, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

• No Image/Garbled Output:
  • Verify that the FPC cable is securely and correctly inserted into the ESP32 board's connector. Incorrect orientation can prevent operation.
  • Check the power supply to the ESP32 board. Insufficient power can lead to unstable camera operation.
  • Ensure the correct camera model (OV2640) is selected in your software configuration.
  • Re-upload the firmware to the ESP32 board to rule out software corruption.
• Dårlig billedkvalitet:
  • Clean the lens gently with a suitable lens cleaning tool.
  • Adjust the lens focus by carefully rotating the lens barrel.
  • Check ambient lighting conditions. The camera performs best in adequate light.
  • Review your software settings for resolution, exposure, and white balance.
• Modul ikke fundet:
  • Confirm that the camera module is compatible with your specific ESP32 board variant.
  • Inspect the FPC cable for any physical damage or bends.

If issues persist after attempting these steps, refer to online community forums for ESP32 and OV2640 users, or contact Aideepen customer support.
