We are unclear what types of diagnostic steps to take here out to test some default code before attempting to write our own. We'd like to see the camera performing some default tracking and we are having issues with Labview at the moment.
Any ideas?

Jus a few basic troubleshooting questions:
Are the lights on on the camera? If so, which ones?
Do you have a backup battery installed?
Did you hook up the serial cable and TTL converter between the camera and the RC?
