Re: Why do we use a TTL -> RS232 converter for the CMUcam?
Team 40 used direct TTL to TTL cables on the 2006 robot. We also held a camera workshop with ten teams. We gave each team a TTL to TTL cable and every team got the camera working. Also , this runs the camera off the 12v supply instead of the backup battery.
The only problem is if you want to run the JAVA APP or NI you have to disconnect the RX port from the camera or it won't communicate with
the DB-9 rs-232.
