Hey guys, I got this board up and working( with a little help from a freind at radio shack), and now I cant get it to take pics in any setting other than test. I looked back at a post by NewMexElkoholic that was the same as mine, the only difference being his board choice. I tried all the checks you guys said to go through, and still nothing. Papabob, any suggestions for me? The wiring is right on the hardwire for the cam, I even checked continuity from the leads inside the cam to the back of my board. I thought seeing as how I opted to use the stereo jack setup, that maybe there was something wrong there, but it seems fine. I am at my wits end.....( not really, cause this is pretty addictive) Now to my figuring, correct me if I&#39;m wrong, when motion is detected, the board sends a current( not sure what voltage) to the camera, to "wake " it up. It then sends another current to operate the shutter( again, I&#39;m not sure how much). Why would this camera set up work in test, and not in "normal". I followed Steves recommended settings to a "T". Anyone have any suggestions for me to try. The board is a fieldpix CB-4. Thew cam is a D 380. http://www.jesseshunting.com/forums/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smiley-help-green.gif
