Hi,
MicroPython: v1.15-r32 OpenMV: v4.0.2 HAL: v1.9.0 BOARD: OPENMV4P-STM32H743
Type “help()” for more information.
The WiFi examples in the documentation are not correct.
The network library does not have a WLAN class. There is a WINC class.
import network
dir(network)
[‘class’, ‘name’, ‘WINC’, ‘route’]
dir(network.WINC)
[‘class’, ‘name’, ‘bases’, ‘dict’, ‘802_1X’, ‘MODE_AP’, ‘MODE_BSP’, ‘MODE_FIRMWARE’, ‘MODE_P2P’, ‘MODE_STA’, ‘OPEN’, ‘WEP’, ‘WPA_PSK’, ‘connect’, ‘connected_sta’, ‘disconnect’, ‘fw_dump’, ‘fw_update’, ‘fw_version’, ‘ifconfig’, ‘isconnected’, ‘netinfo’, ‘rssi’, ‘scan’, ‘start_ap’, ‘wait_for_sta’]
So far, I have not been able to get my OpenMV CAM H7 Plus connected to the internet. I can not find anything that works in the documentation. I am still trying to figure this out.

WLAN is for the Arduino Portenta H7. The WINC class is for the OpenMV Cam H7 with the WiFi shield.
Did your try out the examples under OpenMV Cam → WiFi Shield?
If you mean examples in the OpenMV IDE, no. I can not read the menus, status bar, terminal text, etc because the text is too small. There should be away to change text sizes and fonts for these.
8-Dale
It’s set by your system font. It should enlarge if your change the system font size.
I am running Linux and the font/font sizes in OpenMV IDE do not change when I change system fonts.

I have this issue too on Linux with HiDPI displays, try this:
QT_SCALE_FACTOR=1.2 ~/openmvide/bin/openmvide
Adjust the scale factor up/down until you find something that works for you, and then you can just add that command to bash script to launch the IDE. Alternatively I use desktop/panel launcher and set this for the command:
env QT_SCALE_FACTOR=2.2 /home/user/openmvide/bin/openmvide
That command does not have any effect on the menu or status text.

Which distribution are you using ? And can you attach some screenshots ?
Hi,
I use Linux Mint 20.1 Mate 64bit.
This is what I see:

I tested it with a fresh linuxmint-20.1-mate-64bit install and it seems to be working fine, tried 1, 1.5 and 2 you can see the menus, buttons and text inside the app get bigger. The window title and decorations seem to be globally set.
QT_SCALE_FACTOR=1.0
QT_SCALE_FACTOR=1.5:
QT_SCALE_FACTOR=2.0:
OK. When I set QT_SCALE_FACTOR, everything is affected, including text in the code window. I do not want the text in the code window to be affected. As you can see in the attached screenshot, It makes the code window text HUGE, which is unusable. I have to set QT_SCALE_FACTOR=3.0 to get the menus to where I can read them without straining my eyes.
8-Dale
In the text editor press ctrl and “-” will zoom out.
Ah, OK! That works and leaves the menus and such large enough that I can still read them.
Now, getting back to the WiFi examples, I tried the connect.py script after I added my network said and password. Those are the only changes I made. Line 13 is “wlan = network.WINC()”
I have no idea what is wrong. I have my WiFi shield mounted with the antenna facing away from the camera lens.
I get the following errors:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “”, line 13, in
OSError: Failed to initialize WINC1500 module: Init failed!

That’s upside down, you can see in the product page we have a photo that shows how it should be connected WiFi Shield | OpenMV
Thank you. Can not get the WiFi module initialized now. There is a syntax issue somewhere. I will work more on this later or tomorrow.
8-Dale
OK, I have a way to make this work now. I have the openmvide in my PATH and I created a small script:
`#!/bin/bash
QT_SCALE_FACTOR=3 openmvide`
This works! 
Sorry for the problems,
8-Dale
