Setup

Now that we've confirmed the contents of the box, let's setup the Maivin.  

Starting up the Maivin

1. Remove the lens guard.
2. Connect the Maivin to a shared network using ethernet (RJ45 cable not included).
3. Connect the Maivin to a power source.  The Maivin should light up with a blue light.
4. Note the Maivin's hostname printed under the unit in the format VERDIN-IMX8MP-XXXXXXXX.  In the above picture, this hostname is "verdin-imx8mp-07011770" (hostnames are not case-sensitive).

  Caution: The Heatsink can get hot during operation.  Do not touch. 

First Boot

Once the Maivin has been booted, you can navigate to: Segmentation Demo

The above link will go over how to enable the demo, once the demo has been enable connect to the Maivin using the hostname collected above.  Type this into your browser to bring up the Maivin WebApp Demo. 

NOTE:  Some browsers may need to append ".local" to the hostname, so instead of typing "https://verdin-imx8mp-07011770/" into the browser, you would have to enter "https://verdin-imx8mp-07011770.local/".

NOTE: You will receive an error about an insecure website.  Streaming H.264 to the browser requires HTTPS but self-signed certificates are installed on the Maivin by default.
