Hi all. I have the DSMC1 +1 module for my camera and recently got a cable made to power a monitor via the power socket on the module. I get this msg
Title: +1 Power Out Fault
Message: +1 overcurrent detected. The power source has been disabled.
So I assume this means that the monitor requested more power than the module could supply. Is that a correct conclusion? And if so, is there anything I can do to avoid the issue ?
The spec for the PWR socket on the module states "Supplies unregulated (+) 11.5 to 17 VDC battery pass-through; Connect to 2-pin 0B accessories with RED 4-Pin to 2-PinAdaptor Cable; Max sustained current is 2 A". The monitor I have plugged into my cable is in theory drawing 12v so it should be compatible.
Could my V-mount battery be not supplying enough power? Any other possible causes ?
I should point out that this cable was made for me by Alvin's cables and I am trusting it's wired correctly. The pinout is available and I shared with them so it should be correct. I never used the power socket before to power anything so I don't have a prior experience to compare to.
