Re: Possible 5v Power Distribution Trip
Shorting the battery through the camera has a good chance of breaking things. If it doesn't fix itself, there isn't much you can do to fix it internally (and I think it would be 'illegal' anyway).
Did this happen on a 2009 or 2010 PD? On a 2009, you almost definitely blew the ground return trace on the 5V power supply. On a 2010, there is a self-resetting circuit breaker in line that should heal in a few seconds. However, I wouldn't be surprised if a 2010 still broke, depending on how the short happened - it is a LOT of energy to handle! You could try powering the camera off of the 5V in either the DSC or the 2009 Analog Breakout, as they are all the exact same circuit. Not sure if its legal for competition though. |

Re: Possible 5v Power Distribution Trip
It's not legal, per <R45C>, however we have done it off the digital sidecar before.
