Required Materials 

FRAMOS Sensor Module Development Kit or individual components: 

• FSM-xxxxxx 
• FSA-FTxx/A 
• FPA-A/NVN
• FFC Flex cable with opposing contacts
• M12 lens mount (optional)

1. Add M12 lens mount (optional) 

Prior to assembling the FSM to the FSA, screw an optional M12 lens mount to the FSM. 

Fitting screws are provided with the lens mount. If assembling a 3rd-party mount, please check the hole diameters for the specific module in its technical drawings to select fitting screws. 

Note: All Development Kits come pre-assembled. It is only required to connect the FSM, FSA and Flex Cable assembly to the FPA and attach it to the appropriate Processor Board.

2. Connect FSM and FSA 

Connect the FSM to the FSA, by pressing the two 60 pin connectors together. Watch carefully for the correct connector orientation and the match of both "Pin1". 

3. Connect FSA and FPA 

Connect the FSA to the FPA, by pressing the two 60 pin connectors together. Watch carefully for the correct connector orientation and the match of both "Pin1". 

Fix the mechanical connection by using the provided screws with distance holders and nuts between both boards. In case of an C/CS-mount, screw the board stack into the lens mount mechanics instead of using the nuts.

4. Add Flex Cable 

Add the cable to the FSM-FSA-FPA stack. Make sure to set the cable in the connector with the proper orientation.

Connect the FSM, FSA and FPA stack via flex cable to the appropriate connector of the Jetson Nano/Xavier NX

Caution: Direct connection of FSM to FPA (without FSA) or wrong cable orientation will lead to permanent damage of FSM, Adapters or the Processor Board!   

5. Final Assembly 

Remove the power supply of the carrier board and connect the complete assembly.

Power up the processing board and start the software setup.
