Rev. 3 Micronet SmartCAM™ - Hardware Guide 46 / 50
12. 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 SmartCAM’s battery won’t 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.
