Aipteck 1.3 SD problem

[walt 0]

Just finished my pic operated switch for the 1.3 SD.

Everything works fine except that when I remove servo cord from the receiver I drop any pictures taken...reverts back to zero. I am not using the internal battery but use power from the receiver. If I use the USB connector to the computer and take pictures, everything works out fine. If power is interupted to camera, I drop any pictues taken.

I must be missing something...my wiring seems okay????

Also, when I try to format a SD card all I get is the message "PRO" nothing like that in the manual.

Any help is GREATLY appreciated

The photos that are saved to the camera's internal memory are stored in RAM (not flash). So, they will be lost if you remove power. Try installing the AA batteries in the camera to maintain power before the external power is removed. If you use a memory card this issue should be avoided, or so I recall.

Also, when I try to format a SD card all I get is the message "PRO" nothing like that in the manual.

Not all SD cards are compatible. Try a brand that Aiptek says will work.
