4.5 Shutter Teach

The "Shutter Teach" function is an alternative method of setting the timing for exposure
bracketing for multiple pictures. The GigaPan enters a teaching mode where you press the
left directional button at each point in time you want it to take a photograph.
1. First, configure your camera with the bracketing or multiple exposure mode you wish for
your panorama.
2. Next, select the "Options" submenu from the main menu and press "OK".
3. Scroll to the "Shutter Teach" menu item and press "OK".
4. Select "ON" and press "OK", you will now enter "Shutter Teach" mode.
5. The display will ask you to use the left arrow button to tell the GigaPan when to trigger
the shutter.
6. Press the "OK" button when you re ready to begin teaching the GigaPan when to trigger.
Press the left arrow button as if you are pressing the camera's shutter button. The GigaPan
will mimic your actions and actuate the shutter on the camera.
7. When you have pressed the left arrow button for the last picture to be taken, you need
to tell the GigaPan how long to wait before it moved to the next position in the panorama.
You do this by pressing the "OK" button after the last left arrow button press.
8. Now the GigaPan has been taught how many times and when to trigger the shutter.
The display now has a small "T" for teach mode at the upper right-hand corner of the LCD
display.
9. You can now start a panorama from the main menu and the GigaPan will use the shutter
information you just taught it.
