D455 can't be recognized

    Hello, it sounds as though you were using the RealSense Viewer tool, which has such a firmware pop-up message.  Is that correct please?

     

    If you were using the Viewer, do you know which version of the viewer it was please?  When using the firmware update recommendation button, it will update the firmware to the version that is recommended for that particular Viewer version.

     

    However, the D455 model of RealSense camera requires a minimum firmware version of 5.13.0.50.  If a firmware older than 5.13.0.50 is installed because an old Viewer version was being used (2.38.0 for example) then the camera will become inoperable. 

     

    If this is what has happened then there is no reset fix that can be applied by RealSense users and I would recommend creating a new post on this Help Center support forum explaining what has happened so that a member of the Intel RealSense Help Center support team can respond and assist you (I am not a member of that team).

     

    If the camera is outside of the 1-year sales warranty period then the only fix that users can perform themselves is to purchase a Vision Processor D4 V3 circuit board for around $50, take the D455 apart and swap its existing D4 V3 board for the new one.  This in itself has a risk because there are two versions of the D4 V3 board, and if you are sold the older version that has a firmware older than 5.13.0.50 pre-installed on it instead of the second version with a newer firmware then your problem will not be solved.

    Thanks for your reply, and yes, it was indeed the update reminder popped up by the RealSense Viewer Tool(2.53).It pops up every time I connect the device. I thought it was a very important update and didn't expect that it would lead to such a serious problem.

    If you were using the 2.53.1 Viewer then its firmware updater mechanism should have installed firmware 5.14.0.0, which is newer than the minimum 5.13.0.50 and so should not have caused the D455 to become inoperable.  So another possibility is that there has been a failed firmware update, where the the process got to around the halfway point and then did not complete successfully.  So you have not done anything wrong.

     

    If the camera is not detectable at all then I would again recommend creating a new post on this forum for the attention of the Help Center team.  You could repeat the same opening message as this case, but add the information that you were updating the firmware to 5.14.0.0 in Viewer version 2.53.1.    I also suggest giving the new case the title 'Help Center team: D455 can't be recognized' to emphasize that the case is for the Help Center team's attention.  Thanks!

    Can you confirm that you have created a new case for the attention of the Help Center team using the New Post button on the Help Center front page, please?  I do not see another case in the front-page list after this one.

    Oh, sorry. I didn't make it clear.

    I submitted a request in the Help Center instead of making a new post in the Community.
