The cameras that die are always the external cameras, and only when submerged, right? Would it be possible to do a test with the same cameras inside? Ideally with a new cable and then as much of the modified cabling as possible. Also, can we get a picture of the underwater cables including connectors? Long shot: can you take the external cameras out of the system and loop the firewire back to the other firewire port and see if there is any odd behavior? The thought is maybe the system side firewire chips may be the ones being disrupted by dirty signals. -- Carl K |
