Open the lid, so you can see the back of the camera, and the DigiSnap. Turn
the power switch on the camera on. On the Cyclapse Power Module, turn the
switch off for several seconds, then back on again. While turning it on, watch
the DigiSnap.

No power anywhere!?
1) Battery Pack not charged. Use AC
charger, retest.
2) Cyclapse Power Module failure,
replace.
The power seems OK.
You may want to check
the battery charge, but
the power circuitry is
OK, and the power
cables are OK.
1) Make sure camera
battery pack is charged.
2) Replace the camera.
Disconnect the square 4-pin
connector on the side of the
DigiSnap (yellow & orange
wires). This will bypass the
DigiSnap 2700's control over
the camera power. There should
be power applied to the camera
when this is disconnected.
Replace the Power Adapter
for the camera (dummy
battery pack / DC Coupler &
cable).
Wiggle the connectors, remove
the Cyclapse Power Module
and examine the connections
for any obvious damage.
Replace the Cyclapse Power
Module.
