Newbie Needs Help

[itzrobz]

The IFI loader we have is v1.1.0 and we downloaded the camera codes from Kevin's website yesterday.

[sT4s1657]

I have the same problem with kevin's program (frc_camera_s and frc_camera)
so i tried the FRCcode2.4(something like that) and it work fine for a while but now when i tried to get this to work with the gyro and the accelometer the RC got stock, and now i cant get the camera working again....

I still need help. The camera is still not responding to the code. HELP!!!

Thanks in advance.

Don't hook up both the DB9 cable to the computer and the "PWM" communication cable to the RC at the same time. They'll interfere with each other. Only use the computer if you're controlling the camera with the computer, and only use the cable to the RC if you're controlling the camera with the RC.

Ohhhh, I understand now. Another stupid question:
I can hook up the RC to the computer and use the "PWM" communication cable to connect to the camera (from the RC) at the same time right?

Thanks
