Hello Jennifer,

I'm sorry you are having these problems. Here are several notes:

1) If the camera stops responding when using external trigger, it usually means 
that all the PHP instances that serve requests are waiting for the event that 
never happens. You can telnet to the camera and run:
killall -9 lighttpd
lighttpd - the camera web server, that launches PHP instances, when you kill 
web server, it kills all the PHP instances, and then it gets automatically 
restarted.

2) Make sure that you first (or in the same command)  start trigger output, 
then make camera listen to the external trigger.

3) The main thing - you need to make sure that the cable is correct, plugged in 
the correct connector (synchro connector is smaller than serial, so it can fit 
in teh wrong port).
Can you send the photo of the cable?
Is the "master" end marked?
For testing you just need the "master" end of the cable, master camera should 
only work (not getting stuck) if the connector is plugged in. It is possible to 
make camera output a 5VDC output on the connector so you can check it with 
multimeter.

Hello,
 We have followed the configuration of J15 to connect the camera but when I put 
the values ​​of the parameters(http://wiki.elphel.com/index.php?title=Trigger) 
in the master camera does not respond and I have to restart the camera. Instead 
the slave camera takes the parameters correctly.
 What it the problem?
 Kind regards,
 Jennifer
