I just purchased a new camera, cable and mount(8mp N-75). I installed it on my Windows 7 desktop computer that controls my OMTech 60 watt laser cutter\engraver. After I installed the Windows 7 driver and connected the cable, I was able to get an image. I was able to calibrate the camera and do the alignment. After that I placed a block of wood on the bed and attempted to Update the Overlay and Trace the object but nothing happened. After playing around with it for awhile I noticed that the camera only changed the image when I placed my hands under it. So the only time it would operate is when it sensed motion in front of the lens. I started an email conversation with Lightburn about the issue and this is what we have covered so far. I found another forum entry that showed the same issue I have but did not have a solution listed. See this link: Official Lightburn camera acting weird. Support asked me if I was running the camera through an extension cable of any kind, or just the cord it came with? I replied,I started with an extension and when I had problems I set my laptop next to the laser and used just the cord that came with it. No change. The camera only works when it senses motion. When I pass my hand under it, I get a new image. From LB: Can you check to make sure that the USB connection is plugged in securely at the camera? I’ve seen this issue exactly one other time, and that was the problem. My reply: Reseated the connection at the camera 3-4 times. Restarted Lightburn. I restarted the computer. No change. The only time the camera reacts is when there is motion underneath it. Sorry. The next day I brought my Windows 10 laptop home from work to see if it might have something to do with the OS or the driver. It behaves exactly the same. The camera circuit board also seems to be very hot. I don’t know if that is normal or not. I’ve tried everything I can think of on this end. Do you have any more suggestions? That is where we stand right now. I am waiting for a response. I know they are a small company and are very busy. They have been good about responding in a timely manner. I just thought I would put it out on the forum and see if anyone has experienced this problem? Does anyone have any ideas on how to proceed from here?
