Jumper Connections
 

I feel stupid asking this, but where do we connect our jumpers for the axis camera? I know we connect one end next to the PWM cables on the digital sidecar, but I'm unsure about the other end.

Thanks in advance.

Yes, you are correct that one goes to the sidecar. the other connects to the 5v connection on your power distribution board - it's the little gray box next to the power indicator leds, at the end of the board where main power does NOT come in. The ethernet connect to the cRIO - I believe that is all the connections required.

The same 5 volt connection that is used to power the camera?
We considered that, but the fact that it was already connected to something and that it was 5 volt (not 6 volt as said in the manual) convinced us otherwise.

It sounds like you are asking where to connect the servos, not the camera.

Each servo connects to a PWM port on the Digital Sidecar. Then a jumper is installed to connect the two pins next to the PWM port together. For each servo you need a jumper on the two pins adjacent to the PWM.

I found our problem. What we had been working with was the jumper cables, not the plain jumper. Clearly, this caused a problem.
