I'm having trouble running a camera with an SD card on the MKR NB 1500. My current conclusion is it has something to do with the camera holding onto the SPI controller.
I've tested camera and SD card separately. If i run one of them they work fine.
All I'm trying to do is take a photo, store it on the SD Card.
Hardware:
Arduino MKR NB 1500
Arducam Mini Module Camera 5MP Plus OV5642
Micro SD Card Module from DFRobot DFR0229
Code:
// ArduCAM Mini demo (C)2017 Lee
// Web: http://www.ArduCAM.com
// This program is a demo of how to use the enhanced functions
// This demo was made for ArduCAM_Mini_5MP_Plus.
// It can continue shooting and store it into the SD card in JPEG format
// The demo sketch will do the following tasks
// 1. Set the camera to JPEG output mode.
// 2. Capture a JPEG photo and buffer the image to FIFO
// 3.Write the picture data to the SD card
// 5.close the file
//You can change the FRAMES_NUM count to change the number of the picture.
//IF the FRAMES_NUM is 0X00, take one photos
//IF the FRAMES_NUM is 0X01, take two photos
//IF the FRAMES_NUM is 0X02, take three photos
//IF the FRAMES_NUM is 0X03, take four photos
//IF the FRAMES_NUM is 0X04, take five photos
//IF the FRAMES_NUM is 0X05, take six photos
//IF the FRAMES_NUM is 0X06, take seven photos
//IF the FRAMES_NUM is 0XFF, continue shooting until the FIFO is full
//You can see the picture in the SD card.
// This program requires the ArduCAM V4.0.0 (or later) library and ArduCAM_Mini_5MP_Plus
// and use Arduino IDE 1.6.8 compiler or above

Any one have ideas? I assume its to do with SPI but let me know if you think otherwise.
