# Device Driver Installation and Configuration
## Windows
### Installing RNDIS Driver on Windows 
1. Connect the HoloeyeSLM USB-OTG port to your computer. *Do not connect HDMI to your computer*
2. Open DeviceManager on your computer. 
    
    > To open DeviceManager on your pc, open run(win+R) and type ```devmgmt.msc``` and press Enter button.
    
    If you don't have the RNDIS driver installed on your computer for that port, you are supposed to following:  
 
    ![RNDIS](https://i.ibb.co/kDqpwzD/RNDIS1.png) 
 
3. Right click on RNDIS and choose ```Update Driver```
    
    ![RNDIS](https://i.ibb.co/SsnBTC2/RNDIS2.png)
4. Click on ```Browse my computer for drivers```
    ![RNDIS](https://i.ibb.co/k6Qd067/RNDIS3.png)
5. Click on ``` Let me pick from a list of ... ``` and click on ``` Next ```
    ![RNDIS](https://i.ibb.co/m4VQkK3/RNDIS4.png)
6. From the list choose ```Network adapters``` as your decive type and click on ``` Next ```
    ![RNDIS](https://i.ibb.co/hsN5Fg7/RNDIS5.png)
7. From the list of Manufactures, choose ``` Microsoft ``` and from Model list choose USB RNDIS Adapter and click on ``` Next ``` 
    ![RNDIS](https://i.ibb.co/TRMx6mm/RNDIS6.png)
8. At this step you would have a warning about the possibility of uncompatibality of the chose driver with your device .(**Disclaimer**: I verified to compatibility with with **Holoeye Pluto-2**). Choose ```yes``` for the poping warning dialog.  
    ![RNDIS](https://i.ibb.co/cQqxc37/RNDIS7.png)
9. Now you have installed the RNDIS network driver.Now, you can close the window and proceed with Network Configuration.
    ![RNDIS](https://i.ibb.co/SdRpPzD/RNDIS8.png)
10. Currently, you should be able to see your RNDIS network adapter in thus section
    > Number of RNDIS adapter is equal to number of the devices connected to your computer.

### Configuring RNDIS network address and gateway

1. Open ```Control Panel```
    ![RNDIS](https://i.ibb.co/17R33LF/RNDIS10.png)
2. Click on ```Network and Internet```
    ![RNDIS](https://i.ibb.co/pwrNMVG/RNDIS11.png)
3. Click on ```Network and Sharing Center```
    ![RNDIS](https://i.ibb.co/FJggyQG/RNDIS12.png)
4. Click on ```Change adapter setting```
    ![RNDIS](https://i.ibb.co/GFcHz7H/RNDIS13.png)
5. Right click on network adapter which corresponds to your desiered RNDIS adapter and click on ```Properties```.
    ![RNDIS](https://i.ibb.co/BLNQVcR/RNDIS14.png)
6. From list items choose ```Internet Portocol Version 4(TCP/IPv4)``` and click on ```Properties```.
    ![RNDIS](https://i.ibb.co/Gs1b0kH/RNDIS15.png)

7. Click on ```Use the following IP address```. Enter IP address regarding your device assigned IP. The default IP configuration for device is ```10.10.70.1/8```. Thus you may use any IP address which does not conflict with your other RNDIS network configurations and devices and click on ```Ok```. E.g : 
    ``` 
    # device IP on RNDIS adapter 1 ->  10.10.70.1
    IP address : 10.10.70.254 # RNDIS adapter 1 IP addr 
    Subnet mask : 255.0.0.0   # RNDIS adapter 1 Subnet mask 
    
    # device IP on RNDIS adapter 2 ->  10.10.70.2
    IP address : 10.10.70.253 # RNDIS adapter 2 IP addr 
    Subnet mask : 255.0.0.0   # RNDIS adapter 2 Subnet mask 

    ...
    ```
    ![RNDIS](https://i.ibb.co/0yV3smD/RNDIS16.png)
8. Click on ```Close``` and exit. Now you are set up with your devices.

## Linux 
You may use [```ifconfig```](https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man8/ifconfig.8.html) for configuing your device. In order to assign the IP address, consider the following example: 
``` 
    # device IP on usb0 ->  10.10.70.1
    IP address : 10.10.70.254 # usb0 adapter  IP addr 
    Subnet mask : 255.0.0.0   # usb0 adapter  Subnet mask 
    
    # device IP on usb1 adapter  ->  10.10.70.2
    IP address : 10.10.70.253 # usb1 adapter IP addr 
    Subnet mask : 255.0.0.0   # usb1 adapter Subnet mask 
    ...
```
## MACOS
You may use [HoRNDIS](https://www.joshuawise.com/horndis) for configuring your device connection. Make sure you preserver the address assignment for your different devices. Please refer to linux instruction or step 7 of windows instrction for a more clear example.
