I thought I had but will make sure of positive push in future!You probably know this but be sure to press the "!" emergency/confirm button to change the menu selection once selected. Pressing the Menu button to exit the menu does not change the setting.
it's a simple USB multimeter. I provide the link because it's related to the picture and there are tons of them available, I have one connected in my car and another one at home. useful to find out exactly how much power your USB devices draw, and under different conditions, like at home from a wall/phone charger, or in a car.
Thanks, I'd never come across one before, one will be ordered ASAP!
Yeah, I have some cheap short USB cables that cause power cycling on the A119 series cameras, but seem fine with other brands.
Everything you guys have said and what I have experienced all point to a lack of power problem. When you have 4 power supplies available; my car and its 5v usb, a 1.0 amp phone charger, two 12v to 5v adapters one 2.0amp and the other 3.1amp, the supplied leads and others but nothing seems to work gives the impression the fault is either the camera or software/firmware as the chances of all 4 power sources failing is very small. The card tested, formatted and structure verified and up until the split screen error was working for months without any problems all pointed to a camera or setup error.
I will order the volt checker and see what the actual output of each adapter is.
Ordered, should arrive sometime next week, will check volts and report back. Thanks for all your very helpful advice.
