Thx for the help, the releys works perfectlyIan MacKenzie wrote:I think you're reading the relay right.
Here's a link for the Seafox wiring. The COM, NC and NO are different on these relays, but you should be able adapt it to your relay.

Re: help plz, no power to motors
Did I buy wrong relay? Should be 2 NO and 2 NC
If i wire the motor to pin 1 and 2 or 5 and 6 with no joystick movement nothing happens. But when using joystick the motor is running.

Re: Laptop -> usb -> Cat6 -> usb -> actioncam // possible?
Yeah Steel, USB is usually only good for around 16 feet, after that you get signal degradation and you'll be lucky to have it work at usb 1.0 speeds. You could plug an IP (internet protocol) camera into some Cat5, ethernet cable is good for 325 feet before you begin to have signal strength problems...

Thx! I will do thatasesorplaza1 wrote:Good morning.
You can not directly connect the USB output of the video camera to the CAT6 cable, you must use the so-called "Video Balums", read the publications of how to connect the video cameras that are in the forum.

Re: Camera from an old camrecorder
Good morning. For the price that video cameras have today, I do not think it is worth fixing that one, taking into account that according to the photo, you are missing the electronic control board, and several other parts. Greetings Hi Yes you are probably right. I have the other parts but I agree ...
