Faulty VAOC camera (or accessories)
Hello people,
I'm close to finishe my VCore4 IDEX assembly, but got stuck on the VAOC camera.
I believe it's faulty (or some of it's accessories - cables or board) as it not visible from the printer (can'tconnect). Even tried to rotate the band cable in different configurations, but to no avail.
Can't connect at all. Like it's not existing.
I've also tried to connect it to my laptop, but doesn't recognize it either.
I've started an order from 3DO for a replacement (RatRig team are quite slow on e-mails, so it's better have a spare if they agree to replace that one (which should be under warranty), then wait for them to reply). The thing is, 3DO told me, the one they sell is not absolutely the same to what RatRig purchases. Anyone knows the difference and would I have issues with theirs (which is not cheap at all - 64 euros including delivery to Austria).
Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
