About This Document

This document contains the information necessary to produce a fully programmed Idrive Main board suitable for building of an Idrive X1 V7 series camera. This includes all programming, testing, focus of lenses and bar code label.

Build Lot Preparation

Purchase all required parts.

Supplied serialized Bar code Labels from idrive, one per board.I propose we buy preprinted Polyimide lables for the main board. The Polyimide labels are made to survive the PCB assembly process and are pretty standard on PCB assemblies. The other two labels (for camera case and shipping box) would be scanned and printed at that stage of processing. It is not realistic for three labels to be printed and not have them get mixed up or lost through the process. Here is the closest label size I could find. 10mm x 22mm max is pretty small for the barcode and serial number to be visible. Let's discuss this

Process Flow Overview

Assemble PCB

1. SMT Placement - Use the supplied pick and place information supplied by Idrive

2. Through Hole / Hand parts - Document by vendor process

3. Place Barcode label on the SD Card connector

LED Height Requirements

BiColor LED Mounting Height requirement is 6.25mm +/- 0.1MM from base of LED to PCB surface

IR Leds Mounting Height ( requirement is 12.25mm +/- 0.1MM from base of LED to PCB surface

4. Advance the board to the next Station for Top Level Assembly

Top Level Main Board Assembly

Top Level Main Board Assembly Materials
Idrive X1 V7.0.x PCB
Lens Holders (with 2 screws each)
Lenses (2 per assembly)
Bar code Labels with Serial number

When an Idrive X1 main board completes the SMT and hand solder process there are more assembly steps needed.

1. Bar Code Labels - Unique Serial Number Labels will be pre-generated for each Main Board in the work order. Three labels are required for each serial number(one for the main board, one for final camera case, one for the outside of the packing box). The Bar Code Label needs to be max. 22 mm x 10 mm. After SMT Assembly each Main board needs have a serial number label (supplied) affixed to the SD Card Connector. This serial number will track the main board through all processes and eventually become the camera serial number. It will be difficult and error prone for all three labels to be printed up front. I suggest that one label be printed at this stage and affixed to the Main board. Then when the main board gets put into a camera we rescan the label and print another one at that time. Same with shipping, Scan the label and print it at that station to eliminate lost of mixed up labels. What should a serial number be composed of? Manufacturer code, board version, unique number for that board?

2. Mounting of the two Lens Holders Mounting to the board.

3. Inserting the lenses in the Lens Holders.(Lenses are glued after programming and focus)

4. Advance the Top Level PCB assembly to the Programming Station

Programming Station Initialization

1.Configure Switches on the Programming Fixture

Ensure all switches are in the off position as shown.

Turn On the Power switch and leave the programmer on for the batch of boards.(you do not need to turn it off to program the next board)

Note: In auto programming mode only the Power Switch is used. The other the switch functions are controlled via software

2. Launch the Idrive Factory Tools 2.0 Application

Double click the icon on the Desktop

Factory-New Devices-Auto

(Port number can be checked in "Control Panel> System and Settings> Administrative Tools> Computer Management> Device Manager> Ports)

Set Port number or non-standard IP addresses

4. Select Programming Mode (Normally Auto)

Click on Factory-New Devices-Auto

Serial Number field

12 character serial number for the device to be programmed as read from the bar-code label on the Motherboard. The serial number can be typed in but usually it is filled in by the bar code scanner. After the field is populated press enter and the Auto Install Button will become active. We need error checking for correct serial number length and to ensure the previous serial number is not being used. If they forget to scan the new board the serial number from the old one will be used again.

Proposed S/N format- 2 digits for vendor| 3 digits for Board Version| 7 digit Serial number field Example 01|704|0000001

Auto Install Button

A valid serial number must be entered for the button to be active. When selected it will open the The Automatic Install window (see below)

Lens Focus

Reenter Focus mode for a device that previously failed this step.

If any of these steps fail the program will stop and give an error. If all steps are successful the program will enter into Lens Focus Mode.

Verify That the IR LEDS are working

1. Use a camera phone or camera and view the IR LEDs and verify that they are all on.

Lens Focusing

1. Select "Inside Camera" Tab an Focus the Inside camera(Driver Side) (the one on the same side of the camera as the LEDs). The focal length for the inside camera should be ~1.5 meters

2. Select "Outside camera" Tab and Focus the Outside camera (Road Side) (the one on the side of the camera without LEDs). The Focal Length for the outside camera should be as far as possible

3. Once focused fix the each lens with a drop of super glue.

4. Verify that the lenses can not move.

5. Select "Both cameras" Tab and Verify the lenses are focused.

6. If images are focused and clear click on the "Lens Focus OK" button and the focus mode will close. If the image is not clear for some reason click on the "Lens Focus Not OK" the focus mode will exit so corrective action can be taken

7. Remove Firmware SD Card and replace it with the production SD Card.

* All SD cards need to be unlocked (all SD cards have a lock/unlock switch). It depends on the SD Cards provider whether or not the card needs to be formatted. In all cases if the SD Card needs formatting do not use the quick version.

8. Advance the Main Board to the Camera Top Level Assembly Station.

Final Programming/Testing (Wifi, GPS, Shock Event, Transfers)

Note: The V7 programmer can be used to perform this portion of the programming provided a wireless router is configured and connected to the system. For better throughput and to reduce the number of wireless networks in a factory environment it is recommended that the x6 Programmer be used. Because this document is intended to support production the x6 programmer process is shown here. See "V7 programmer final programming process" section in the Appendix for use of the V7 programmer for this portion of the process.

Final Test Station Initialization

1. Turn ON the wireless router or access point

2. Open the Event Test - Transfer and Play Section of Idrive Factory Tools application and keep it open for the entire testing.

Testing the Unit

1. Scan the Bar Code label with the serial number (if no bar code scanner type the serial number from the bar code label into serial number input field from Idrive Factory Tools Application)

2. Turn the device Idrive X1 ON - Power ON, Ignition ON.

3. Wait the initialization (aprox. 30 seconds) until the both LED turn green and gently shake the camera to create a shock event and observe the left LED to be red and the right LED to be green indicating the camera is recording.

4. Pause the program to shake the camera and test the accelerometer(s) How can we do this?

5. When both LED return to green turn the Ignition OFF.

5. The camera device will automatically WIFI download the event to the computer station. The device will automatically show up in the connections list.

6. Press "Play events" link for each device and play the events.

1. Press Finish button on the Factory Tools

2. Disconnect the power cable and the adapter
