Hello community,
I am currently testing with the Theta X API and I noticed that compared to previous models the stateFingerprint does not change when the battery level changes or when a new picture is taken and the _latestFileUrl changes.
Update to latest 1.20.0 firmware but that didn’t help either.
Am I missing some setting here or can someone confirm this behavior?
Regards
Thank you for reporting this.
Test if fingerprint changes in osc/state output when state property changes
| model | take picture | battery state | battery level |
|---|---|---|---|
| Z1 fw 2.10.3 | yes | yes | yes |
| X fw 1.20.0 | yes | no | no |
| SC2 fw 1.71 | yes | yes | yes |
@jcasman will include this in an agenda with a RICOH manager
we will send your report and our own community test results to RICOH engineering
Do you have any additional information or tests you would like to post in this forum topic?
Thank you for your help.
fingerprint FIG_0003
take picture
run osc/state again to check fingerprint
Check state prior to taking picture
fingerprint is FIG_0668
take picture
check state again
works as expected
unplug camera from charging to change state
starting fingerprint is FIG_0003
Disconnect power supply
Z1 changes state
fingerprint FIG_0005
take picture
check state after take picture
SC2 fingerprint changes after take picture
fingerprint changes as recordable time goes down
Hello craig,
thanks for your help!
I can confirm that the state changes when the picture is taken via the API.
My test was pressing the hardware button, which should result in exactly the same behavior, but doesn’t.
I have the output from my Flutter app here. Notice the changed _latestFileUrl has changed due to taking an image via the hardware button on the camera. The batteryLevel also changed in the same time frame, confirming your tests above.

Here is the same test output from a Z1 with firmware 2.10.3.
State change also via taking the image with the hardware button.

I hope you can include this in your report.
Thanks!
Thank you for this update of your test. We will report this to RICOH. If the solution requires a firmware modification, it may take some time. If you can share anything about your application use case, I can also pass that along.
| model | take picture API | battery state | battery level | take picture button |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Z1 fw 2.10.3 | yes | yes | yes | yes (*) |
| X fw 1.20.0 | yes | no | no | no (*) |
| SC2 fw 1.71 | yes | yes | yes | not tested |
(*) tested by community. Oppkey did not verify
Community member verified this does not work on firmware 1.30.0.
We will test this in the next firmware upgrade.
I believe this will get addressed in the future.
