Re: The *BIG* CMU Howto

On the screwy image...
I have never tried resetting the GUI, that's not a bad idea though....
We always assumed that when that started happening, the backup battery was running low (IC's do wierd things when voltage is out of spec, you know) and replacing the backup battery or putting it on a permanent supply got rid of it. Whether or not that came from restarting the camera or not, I have no idea, but it was our solution.
We actually had one heck of a time getting it to interface with the TTL port. For some reason, it wouldn't complete the handshake properly, and we'd have to plug and unplug the thing to get it to work properly. There was probably just a coding glitch (blame the programmers!) but I wonder: did anyone else have that problem?

I love to take things apart. The fact that they work better when I put them back together it just a bonus.
