CMUcam setup

[Ryan Collings]

I can not get the CMUcam to do what the instructions say it can.

I got my CMUcam hooked to an AT powersupply for a steady supply of power. it turns on and when I use Hyperterminal I get the string from the camera that says "CMUcam2 v1.01 c7". my port settings are

Port: COM2
Bits per second: 115200
Data bits: 8
Parity: none
Stop bits: 1
Flow control: None

I do not know how to send the "gv" to the CMUcam. but I assume it works and I start the CMUcam2 program and it just says "Looking for Camera...". If I press any buttons on the GUI it freezes up. I appreciate any help anyone can give me. and I encourage other who have the same problem or something similar to post here with me, or if there is already a post on this, let me know, I did not find one in the search though.
