Servo Camera Triggering on 3DR Iris+ not working

Posted by Ag Drone on June 3, 2015 at 11:17pm

Hello

I have a stock 3DR Iris+ and I am trying to get the servo camera trigger to work. I have a separate power supply for the servo and it is confirmed to be working. 

I have the signal wire connected to Aux3 (or RC11) on the Pixhawk. You can see my param settings in the images attached, I have everything the way Ardupilot suggest including assigning CH7 as a manual shutter button for testing purposes.  

I am get nothing when flipping channel 7 switch. Is there something not mentioned in the instructions or something specific going on with the Iris that I should be looking for?

Thanks in advance for any help.

    The image shows RC10 and not RC11 above.  Also did you check that CH7 is working in Radio Calibration.

      Thanks for reply. Yes the channel 7 is working in radio calibration.

      Sorry for mistake on image, I was trying different channels and different functions just to see if I could get something to work. I normally had it connected to channel 11 with channel 11 selected. 

      I was going to try a servo gimbal setting just to see if that would work but had not got to that yet.

    Hello.

    Any ideas? Thoughts? Suggestions? I was hoping to get back at this on the weekend if someone has suggestions. I have checked and double checked my settings, power supply etc and I just can not get it to work.

    Any other forums where I may go that will better serve my subject?

    Thank you all.
