Re: CMUCam2 Vision Sensor Testing/Problems
Hi,
You need to do these things (our experience).
1. Get the frc camera code loaded into new RC.
2. Connect PWM cable between PWM output and power connection on camera card.
3. Connect PWM cable between TTL-RS232 card and the camera card.
4. Power up the RC.
5. Press the Robot Reset button on the OI.

Only power on LED is illuminated. We moved a 'red' hat in the view out to 12 feet to make the RED LED come on.

Still experimenting...
Regards,
ChuckB
