Hello all,
Hope someone can help, or point us in the right direction.
We have a RED Raven with a hdmi-jetpack, sitting in a Movi Pro setup. The hdmi-signal has been delivered from the camera/jetpack to a wirelesss transmitter, and the usb-power from the jetpack has powered a Tilta focus-motor.
All of this has worked just fine, until now.

There is no hdmi being sent from the jetpack, and the focus-motor doesnt get any power anymore. I have tested with feeding the transpmitter from another camera-souce, and it works. I have also tested the focus-motor with another power-supply, and it works.
Its just when hooking this up the mentioned jetpack that it doesnt work anymore.

When booting the Raven with the jetpack and transmitter, I get a few seconds with the RED-logo during boot, delivered through the hdmi...then it dies. This happens everytime.

Any ideas?

Best,

Hello!
Yes, we are already using that top port for the RED Monitor. But thanks!
 
Have you tried re-seating the jetpack, or cleaning the contacts? If there's a 5 sec working time on the beginning - seem like something is going on with contacts
 
Aaaand that was exactly what it was...the Jetpack needed to be re-seated. I couldnt see any damage etc, but after mounting it back on, everything works again. So that might have been the "fix" :-)
