Manual Motor Control; Swapping Directions - Dynamic Perception MX3 User Manual

7.7. Manual Motor Control

There are times when you'll want to manually position an axis, such as during initial shot setup,
testing framing, and more. You can take manual control over a motor in the Manual Move action
within the Motor Sub-menu. In the manual move screen, you'll see a speed displayed. You can
use [Up] and [Down] to change the movement speed. Pressing
in that direction, and pressing
move action, simply press
Menu Navigation:
1. [Enter] to enter the Main System Menu
2. [Up] or [Down] until Motors is selected
3. [Enter] to enter Motors menu
4. [Up] or [Down] until correct axis is selected
5. [Enter] to enter axis menu
6. [Up] or [Down] until Manual Move is selected
7. [Enter] to activate the Manual Move screen
8. [Enter] to exit the Manual Move screen

7.8. Swapping Directions

If you find that Left and Right (or Clockwise and Counter-Clockwise for rotary axes) are
consistently backwards from how you expect them to operate for a given axis, you could turn the
whole rig around - or, better yet, invert the directions for that axis. Each axis can have its
direction display inverted by setting the Invert Dir parameter within the motor sub-menu. Set this
to 'on' to flip directions around, or 'off' to leave them as-is.
