Known Issues Overview The Micronet SmarTab 8 has some known issues discovered in the alpha launch and pre-production testing. These are listed below:
Access Point Configuration:
NOTE: No cellular connections are vailable in the SmartCAM Basic model which requires the device to connect via Wi-Fi. Active WiFi-Direct connections should NOT be available in specific cases i.e. no application may use the device in WiFi-Direct or Hotspot mode when update is scheduled to allow device connecting client AP in station mode. BUG Cellular Access Points (APs) are not pre-defined through a configuration files; neither are the APs automatically generated upon booting the Micronet SmartCAM with microSIM cards. WORKAROUND (temporary) Customers should predefine AP data in the Micronet SmartCAM Wi-Fi settings for internet connectivity. SD Card Format Error:
BUG When an SD Card is inserted to the SmartCAM, the Android OS attempts to format it as
"Internal" (application) storage, which fails and displays Not Supported (This is a specific version limitation). WORKAROUND (temporary) To use the "External" (data storage) of the SD card, we recommend formatting it externally on a PC as FAT32 file system prior to inserting the SD card it to the Micronet SmartCAM device. Doing this will ensure correct behavior of the SD card as external storage. Battery Depletion Reboot:
BUG When the battery is depleted below a 5% threshold the Micronet SmartCAM will start booting in a reboot loop after charging for some moments. FIX IN PROGRESS Should be fixed by using correct battery profile in firmware. Battery Not Charging:
BUG The Micronet SmartCAMs battery wont fully charge and it depletes too fast due to the absence of customized battery profile. FIX IN PROGRESS Should be fixed by using correct battery profile in firmware. Rev. 3 Micronet SmartCAM - Hardware Guide 46 / 50 z Roadside Camera Performace:
BUG The Micronet SmartCAMs roadside camera performance is degraded due to an uncalibrated camera sensor. FIX IN PROGRESS Will be fixed by applying correct camera calibrations. Microphone Gain:
BUG The Micronet SmartCAMs external microphone doesnt provide sufficient gain. FIX IN PROGRESS The PCB will require a resistor of lesser value to provide the best possible gain. IR LED Brightness:
BUG The Micronet SmartCAMs Infrared LED brightness of the driver side camera needs to be fine-
tuned for optimal performance. FIX IN PROGRESS Currently undergoing testing. Rev. 3 Micronet SmartCAM - Hardware Guide 47 / 50 z Compliance Information FCC Compliance:
