  • Servos are hooked up to pwm01 & 02?
  • Camera power is connected by PWM cable to an empty RC PWM output?
  • PWM cable is attached to the camera serial port and the RC via TTL converter?
  • Backup battery is connected to the RC and fully charged?
  • 12v battery is hooked up to the RC and fully charged?
  • OI is tethered or linked by radio to the RC and powered?
  • Green power LED on the camera power is on?
Can you call up Kevin's tracking and camera menus?
Did you test separately with Labview?
