Prerequisites

• The D415 will not work correct without at least the minimal firmware version. It may not come that way.
• It must be plugged into a USB 3 socket.

Shipped Firmware

 $ realsense-viewer

I got the following message

 Current firmware version: 05.09.02.00
 Minimal firmware version: 05.10.03.00

Ended up installing

 05.11.01.00

• Linux* Firmware Update User Guide for Intel® RealSense™ D400 Series Cameras
• Intel Realsense D400 Series Device Firmware Upgrade (DFU) Tool for Linus Install and User guide Version 1.2 This contains the necessary steps. This is the guide used for the example firmware load below.

Install DFU Tool

 $ echo 'deb http://realsense-hw-public.s3.amazonaws.com/Debian/apt-repo xenial main'| sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/realsense-public.list
       [sudo] password for eepp:

 $ sudo apt-get update

 $ sudo apt-get install intel-realsense-dfu*

Download the Firmware

• D400 Series Firmware

• I downloaded version 05.11.01.00 zip file and unzipped it.

 $ unzip IntelRealSenseD400SeriesSignedProductionFirmwarev5_11_1.zip 
     Archive:  IntelRealSenseD400SeriesSignedProductionFirmwarev5_11_1.zip
       inflating: Intel® RealSense™ D400 series Firmware - Attributions.pdf  
       inflating: Intel® RealSense™ D400 series Firmware - Header.pdf  
       inflating: Intel® RealSense™ Depth Camera Software License Agreement (OEMIHVISV Distribution & Single User).pdf  
       inflating: Signed_Image_UVC_5_11_1_0.bin  

• and got the binary version of the firmware named Signed_Image_UVC_5_11_1_0.bin

Load the Firmware into D415

IMPORTANT NOTE See Avoiding Command Line Argument Error section below

• Plug in the D415 into a USB 3 Socket

• Determine which bus and device it is plugged into

 $ lsusb
     Bus 002 Device 004: ID 8086:0ad3 Intel Corp. 
     Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
     Bus 001 Device 005: ID 04f3:2494 Elan Microelectronics Corp. 
     Bus 001 Device 004: ID 8087:0a2a Intel Corp. 
     Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0bda:58c2 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. 
     Bus 001 Device 002: ID 046d:c52b Logitech, Inc. Unifying Receiver
     Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

• Notice the line above with the device titled Intel Corp. It is the D410 and gives us the bus and device number of the Realsense camera.
• Also notice that the camera is plugged in a USB 3.0 hub. This is important for the firmware to load

 $ intel-realsense-dfu -b 002 -d 004 -f -i /home/eepp/realsense_camera/Signed_Image_UVC_5_11_1_0.bin 
     D400 busnum = 2

Command Line Argument Error

reference

• librealsense issues. See December 17, 2018 note.

has spacing issues, simply copying and pasting commands into the terminal provides errors.

example

intel-realsense-dfu gets a Command Line Argument Error if you past it command string in a terminal window. For example,

 $ intel-realsense-dfu –b 002 –d 003 –f –i/home/eepp/realsense_camera/Signed_Image_UVC_5_11_1_0.bin 
     Command line arguments error: Unknown command line argument: –b
     Usage: intel-realsense-dfu [OPTIONS]
     [OPTIONS]

             -d usb device number of device
             -e increase verbosity of exceptions
             -f force firmware update
             -i <input_file> path to firmware file
             -p print firmware versions when correct bus number, device number, and filenames are given
             -v print firmware update tool version
             -h display this message and exit
