I just receive an email from Team 1401 in Mexico. I've inserted the message below. Our team is not using the CMU camera so we have no experience and really can't help. However, I know enough to post a query on Chief Delphi.

If you can help, please reply and I'll forward it.

Hi Allan

It is great to talk to you once again; and, as always, asking for some help. This time our problem is related with the CMU camera. I hope you could help us.

Solved the common problems with this device like calibrating, updating or testing PC communication, what I can not solve is the communication between CMU camera and the RC microcontroller.

I already run the TTL-232 card basic troubleshooting and, in step 3 point C, it seems like there is no response from the camera card. Moreover running the FRC code v2.4 that includes CMU camera code, it displays the "no card connected" message.

I thought that the problem comes from the RC card program, so I find an update for the RC, but it still does not work. I am checking the RC code and I found that communication with MCU camera depends on some libraries that I do not understand. Or could be an error in the TTL port configuration, I am not sure.

Well I do not know what else I can tell you; so, if you could give me some light in this darkness. We will appreciate it.

Please give a handshake to Freddy
