Here's a list of things that could be wrong:
- Do you have the correct COM port selected in the CMUCam2 Application?
- You're not connecting the camera through the Serial port to the computer AND the TTL port on the robot controller, are you?
- Is your backup battery FULLY CHARGED? The camera uses the backup battery for its power, and if the camera isn't getting the absolute full charge then the camera won't communicate.
- Make sure all programs that could be using that port are shut down; this includes hyperterminal, IFI loader, etc...
I want you to review this thread and see if you can get ANYTHING out of the camera:

If you cannot get anything to come out of your camera, and you are dead sure your camera is being powered at the correct voltage, then you may have a bum camera. I'd like for you to debug this a bit more before saying you have a bum camera, however, since bum cameras aren't a common occurrence.
