Zumi Camera not working

[Timmytomate]

Hello,
after having a talk with a awesome coworker of RoboLink we were finally able to update to 2.31.
Now I tried to work with the camera.

When starting drive mode it shows: "Camera may not be connected"

When trying the QR-Code-Course for example and trying to start the camera it shows the following message:
Starting PiCamera

I already tryed it like 3 times and also checked the camera cables on the board.

@timmytomate Great! Sometimes you just need to close the camera and reboot Zumi. Let us know if you have any further issues!

[Timmytomate]

thx for the quick response. Somehow it actually worked afterwards. I thought i had checked it before properly.

@timmytomate ,
It seems like the camera may be disconnected underneath the shell in the front (the Sunny connector). Please reference this FAQ for an image. Then, restart Zumi and check if the camera is enabled.
