# 4 Getting Started

This chapter describes the steps needed to begin using the RQX-59x Series in your application.

# 4.1 Attach DC Power Connector

Locate the DC power cable shown below that is included in the Accessory Box. Insert connector P2 into the ATX DC Power Input “F” shown in Figure 3-1 on page 17.

![P1\n1\n2\n10 5\n6 1\nP2](.rqx-59x-50m-45r03-1010-11/572262a9243959c171351770107029f3d16c0c5349d672cf5970cb6142447ebb.jpg)

Connect a DC power source as described in Section 3.1.9: DC Power Input (on page 23) to the inputs of connector P1, connecting “positive” (red) to Pin1 and “negative” (black) to Pin 2.

![The image shows a red triangle containing a white exclamation point centered within it. Below the triangle is the word 'WARNING' in black capital letters, all set against a white background.](.rqx-59x-50m-45r03-1010-11/70c0773dfc9a4e6ad54310507d2de0e1cd8025fdb991b87b82bfe73e6bfa0835.jpg)

Before providing DC power, ensure the voltage and polarity provided are compatible with the DC input. Improper input voltage and/or polarity can be responsible for system damage.

AVERTISSEMENT: Avant de connecter à une source de courant continu, veuillez vous assurer de la polarité de la tension conformément à l'entrée CC du PC. Une tension et/ou une polarité incorrectes peuvent causer des dommages irréversibles sur le système.

# 4.2 Mounting the RQX-59x Series

# 4.2.1 Install the Wall-mount Brackets

Use the 4 M4 6mm screws included in the Accessory Box to attach the 2 included wall-mount brackets to the chassis as indicated by the red circles below.

Utilisez les 4 vis M4 6 mm incluses dans la boîte d'accessoires pour fixer les 2 supports de montage mural inclus au châssis, comme indiqué par les cercles rouges ci-dessous.

# 4.2.2 Mounting the Device / Montage de l'Appareil

Mount the device to a wall using the 4 keyhole openings indicated or the 6 mounting holes circled in red, according to the spacing dimensions of the holes in the bracket as shown in Figure 2-2 RQX-59x Series Top View.

# 4.3 Camera application in RQX-59x Series

# 4.3.1 Camera supporting list in RQX-59 series

ADLINK RQX-59 series has two SKUs with serial link technology for video distribution to choose from: RQX-59G for GMSL2 and RQX-59F for FPD-Link III. Below is a table of validated cameras and LiDAR for RQX-59 series.

<table><tr><td>Brands/Sensors</td><td>GMSL2 camera(drivers ready)</td><td>FPD-Link IIIcamera(drivers ready)</td><td>LiDAR</td></tr><tr><td>TIER IV</td><td>Automotive HDRcamera C1/C2</td><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Stereolabs</td><td>ZED-X/ZED-X mini</td><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>oToBrite</td><td>oToCAM264ISPoToCAM260ISP</td><td>oToCAM264ISPoToCAM222</td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Leopard</td><td>LI-AR0233-GMSL2(non-ISP)</td><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Ouster</td><td></td><td></td><td>OS1-3</td></tr></table>

It is suggested that users choose only one brand of camera in one RQX-59 application. If two brands of cameras are applied and mixed in one RQX-59 application, two drivers from different camera brands may cause incompatibility issues and render the cameras not working properly.

If users have decided to choose one brand of the above suggested camera list, please contact Adlink’s sales team. Once we receive the request, the team will send out the drivers to users. Installation guide will also be included in the files.

Regarding FPD-Link III cameras from oToBrite, we suggest that users, when mounting the cameras, should wait for the cameras to get into a stable state (more than 30 seconds), before shutting down the whole system.

Due to NVIDIA’s Jetson Orin Argus streaming known issue, it is recommended to use ISP GMSL2 or FPD-Link III cameras to avoid encountering image drop while executing full loading image scenarios.

# 4.4 RQX-59 series flashing BSP MFI file SOP

Adlink’s RQX-59 series come with BSP in NVIDIA’s Orin module eMMC. If user wishes to reflash the BSP MFI image file into eMMC in RQX-59 series, this is the SOP of flashing the image. Latest BSP MFI file can be downloaded on Adlink’s official website.

https://www.adlinktech.com/Products/ROS2\_Solution/ROS2\_Con troller/RQX-59\_Series?lang=zh-Hant

Before flashing image to NVIDIA Jetson Family, user should prepare the following items:

1.Host PC with Ubuntu operating system.
2.A good quality OTG cable (micro-usb/USB type C) for connecting to NVIDIA Jetson Family (Client PC).

Complete the following steps on the Client PC before performing the host PC steps.

# Client PC

1. Connect the OTG cable to the USB port.
2. Enter Recovery Mode. RQX-59 is at Power off.
(1) Press and hold recovery button.
(2) plug in AC adapter connector on RQX-59.
(3) RQX-59 will get into recovery mode.

The location of Recovery button

# Host PC

• The host must have the following dependencies:

\$ sudo apt install libxml2-utils simg2img network-manager abootimg sshpass device-tree-compiler nfs-kernel-server

Step 1. Connect the host PC to the Client PC via OTG cable.

Step 2. Open a terminal, run following command and check out the mode on Host PC:

\$ lsusb | grep NVIDIA

# Recovery mode willshow APX.

Bus 001 Device 031: ID 0955:7019 NVIDIA Corp. APX

User needs to make sure the client PC in recovery mode before flash image.
If client PC doesn't recognize or not in recovery mode, double-check the OTG cable connection and perform troubleshooting as needed
until the client is recognized and in recovery mode.

Step 3. Download MFI image file into host PC.

mfi\_jetson-agx-orin-rqx590-35.4.1-1v2.4.tbz2

Step 4. Unzip the MFI file that was downloaded previously.

\$ sudo tar -I lbzip2 –xf mfi\_jetson-agx-orin-rqx590-35.4.1- 1v2.4.tbz2

or

\$ sudo tar jxf mfi\_jetson-agx-orin-rqx590-35.4.1-1v2.4.tbz2

Step 5. Navigate to working folder

\$ cd mfi\_jetson-agx-orin-rqx590-35.4.1-1v2.4

Step 6. Execute flashing command

\$ sudo ./tools/kernel\_flash/l4t\_initrd\_flash.sh --flash-only

# 4.5 Expansion box application in RQX-59 series

ADLINK’s expansion box SKUs provides users with one PCIe Gen4 x16 slot, and one PCIe Gen3 x4 slot. Any expansion cards that users wish to use must comply with the specs. The allowed length of the expansion card is below 19 cm, and width is less than 10 cm.

If user wishes to put a 10 GbE card as an expansion card in the expansion box, Intel® Ethernet Converged Network Adapter X550-T2 card can be used for this application. Adlink team has tested and verified the compatibility of this X550-T2 card with RQX-59 series.

After installation, user has to get into the system terminal and enter the following command line for the 10GbE card to have the best performance. This command line has to be entered every time when system is turned on, when using this 10 GbE expansion card.

```shell
$ sudo nvpmodel -m 0
$ sudo jetson_clocks
$ sudo ifconfig eth0 down
$ sudo ifconfig eth0 mtu=9000
$ sudo ifconfig eth0 up
```

The steps for installing the expansion card into the expansion box are as follows:

1. Remove the bottom screws

NOTENOTE:

Information in this Appendix is for power budget planning and design purposes only. Actual power consumption may differ based on final application.

# A.1 Power Consumption Reference

The power consumption provided below is based on lab data in which 24V DC is applied and current is measured by the DC power supply. The power consumption (W) is calculated as the product of applied voltage (V) and the current (A).

The platform was tested with the following external I/O interfaces connected to supported devices: HDMI monitor, keyboard/mouse, USB dummy load, COM loopback, and Ethernet port.

Information is presented for reference only. Actual power consumption will vary with different attached devices and operating system.

<table><tr><td>System</td><td>Power Off (S5)</td><td>System Idle</td><td>MAXN type0</td><td>Mode 30W type all</td><td>Recommended Power Supply</td></tr><tr><td>RQX-59G(-E)</td><td>6.48W</td><td>40.1W</td><td>96.7W</td><td>123.5W</td><td>160W</td></tr><tr><td>RQX-590(-E)</td><td>2.1W</td><td>16.05W</td><td>96.7W</td><td>59.37W</td><td>160W</td></tr></table>
