Re: Newbie Needs Help
Okay, coming off the camera itself, you will have two wires:
Power (goes to any free PWM port) Serial (Goes to the small TTL board, which connects to the RC) After that, each of the servo's connects to the correct port on the RC (pwm01 for pan, and pwm02 for tilt, IIRC) Now, the "normal" (db9 (big black cable)) serial cable goes from the RC's program port to the laptop. After doing all this, if it still doesn't work: Charge your backup battery. Use the dashboard to make sure the backup battery is charged. Ensure all your PWM's are in the right places. Check your backup battery (again!) Lens cap off? Camera focused? (Use labview) Light have a good power supply (When the battery starts dieing, the camera can't find it as well) Backup battery dead? (This is probably the most common problem we have had) If all else fails, reload the default camera code (Which should track the target "out of the box") |
