Re: Multiple Axis Cams?

you can power it with a second side card i just want to know if you can do it?

cause if you connected a camera to the crio the clam can use it for the drivers. then if you cennect another to the d-link router your team mates could connect to it to watch the game from the camera instead of the stands right?

I really don't understand what you want to know. What is a "second side card"? What is "the clam" supposed to be? See if you can find someone to help you ask your question in a less cryptic fashion.

The Digital Sidecar has absolutely nothing to do with the camera (except maybe to provide control to servos on a pan/tilt mount if you use one). The camera has its own dedicated 5 volt power connection on the Power Distribution Board.

Re: Multiple Axis Cams?

Additional cameras would fall under the category of custom circuits. You can provide power to them using a 20-amp circuit from the Power Distribution (plus whatever voltage regulation they might require).

Yea, we did that to the cRIO last year and the solenoid breakout.

Re: Multiple Axis Cams?

I'm not sure about safety, but all you do is take another wire, put it across the main one going to your first camera, and solder it in a T-splice.
