The Z3-HE2160-APP-01 is an application board design for rapid prototyping of the Z3-HE2160-MOD-xx and is

included in the Z3-HE2160-RPS. This application board uses the I/O expansion capability of the module to

implement additional functions not present in the module itself. This application board has one HDMI input,

one composite input and one 3G-SDI input as well as ports for Gigabit Ethernet, USB, Micro SD and RS-232

serial.

The Z3-HE2160-RPS software is based on the Linux OS. The kit comes with all of the low-level resources such

as the Linux kernel, u-boot, tool chain and starter file system pre-integrated and configured. The software

bundle also contains tools to allow the development of high-level applications using hardware-accelerated

video processing. Those customers that license the optional source code package can also receive source

code for Z3’s demonstration applications, providing an ideal starting point for custom applications.

Z3 Technology can provide services to customize the software applications to a customer’s specification. For

design services or additional support, please contact Z3 at www.Z3technology.com or

sales@Z3technology.com.

* Supports non-HDCP HDMI content only. For example, Blu-Ray players cannot be used as a video source.

2.0 QUICK START GUIDE

2.1 If You Have Received a System from Z3 with the Software Preloaded

To start working with the encoder, you can go straight to Section Error! Reference source not found.,

“Error! Reference source not found.,” on page Error! Bookmark not defined.. This section describes

how to quickly stream UDP, RTP, RTSP or RTMP as well as record to a USB storage device. Enabling Pro-

MPEG Forward Error Correction (FEC), Zixi Feeder™ or KLV data are also described.

2.2 If You Already Have a System from Z3 and Need to Update the Firmware

There are several options for updating the firmware on your RPS by following the instructions in Section

7.0: “RUNNING THE CODE YOU BUILT ON THE BOARD”, on page 14.

2.3 If You are Ready to Start Development

Details on how to untar and build the code can be found in Section 5.0: “ ,” on page Error! Bookmark

not defined.. A brief overview of the code itself can be found in Section 6.0: “CODE OVERVIEW,” on

page 12.

Details on how to set up your system to access the code you have built can be found in Section 7.0:

“RUNNING THE CODE YOU BUILT ON THE BOARD”, on page 14.

Please Note: Actual version numbers for your Z3 product may differ from those pictured in this document.

5.0 UNTARRING AND BUILDING THE RPS CODE

5.1 Preparing the Linux Environment

Prior to building the Z3 code, certain modules are required. In Ubuntu 16.04 or later, the following

command can be used to get the required modules:

sudo apt-get install build-essential bison flex mtd-utils liblzo2-dev uuid-dev

zlib1g-dev libpcre3-dev autoconf autoconf-archive automake libtool libtool-

doc libc6-dev lynx xutils-dev libncurses5-dev yodl

In Fedora, the command would be:

sudo yum install bison flex mtd-utils mtd-utils-ubi lzo-devel libuuid-devel

pcre-devel automake autoconf libtool

If you are running a 64-bit OS, it may be necessary to install some 32-bit libraries for the cross-compiling

toolchain. You can determine whether your OS is 64-bit by using the “uname –p” command. A 64-bit OS

will return “x86_64,” while a 32-bit OS will return “i386”, “i586”, or “i686”.

For 64-bit Ubuntu, you can get the necessary libraries by typing:

# sudo apt-get install gcc-multilib

# sudo dpkg –-add-architecture i386

# sudo apt-get update

# sudo apt-get install libc6-dev-i386 libncurses5-dev:i386 libstdc++6:i386

zlib1g:i386 libmnl-dev libmnl0 pkg-config pkgconf cmake

For 64-bit Fedora, you can type:

# sudo yum install glibc.i686

For Ubuntu change shell from dash to bash:

# sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash

Then select “No” when it asks if “dash” should be the system shell (this will cause /bin/sh to be linked

to “bash” instead)

5.2 Making the Directories and Running the Make Script

The software provided will allow you to re-create the pre-installed software of the Z3-HE2160-RPS

starting from the included code.

On a PC running Linux, create a directory where the released materials are going to be located:

# mkdir /home/z3/he2160

Copy the released tar archive to that directory (note: the name may slightly vary).

# cp SW-CH1-00920-01_HE2160-RPS-20180803.tar.bz2 /home/z3/he2160

Untar the archive (name of tar file may slightly vary):

# tar -xvjf SW-CH1-00920-01_HE2160-RPS-20180803.tar.bz2
