CMUCam2 Vision Sensor Testing/Problems
Hi,
Got camera connected to RC correctly. Performed quick check referring to CMUcam2_fe manual.pdf using HyperTerminal. Instead of getting the correct response on the terminal "CMUcam2 v1.0 c6" I got just a "C:" response.

I then loaded "FRC_CMUCam2.hex" into RC. Repeated above and got correct response (c7 instead of c6).

I have noted that my RC Mode is blinking red (disabled) and that the program state is solid yellow/red (looks orange to me).

Tried running the stand_alone JAVE app to test vision system but I have version 1.3. So, I have just downloaded Java Virtual Machine 1.4 and hope to get it installed soon so I can actually see something on my computer. That'll be cool.

Any idea on the RC fault lights after loading the above HEX file? The default code this year loads okay. Noticed Kevin's Navigation program gave me similar faults.

Regards,
Chuck
