ON
Star Adventurer 2i will rotate left to
right if Clockwise is set to ON, or
right to left if Clockwise is set to
OFF
Photos: This parameter is automatically set by setting
Video Length and Frame Rate using the formula:
Photos = Video Length x Frame Rate
Frame Period (Sec): You can set the Frame Period
to select a desired interval between photos taken
rather than have it calculated for you based on other
parameters. Note that if you set Photo Interval and
Video Length the app will re-calculate Video Time
Span. Anytime you are changing a parameter it is a
good idea to check its effects on the other ones
Swing Range (Deg): Use Swing Range to create
an interesting swing or pendulum effect for your time-
lapse video. When used, Star Adventurer 2i will pan
to the limit of the Swing Range that you set, then pan
back to your starting point as many times as specified
in the Swing Count parameter. For instance, say you
have two interesting subjects that you want to feature
in your video. Set Swing Range to the angle between
them and Swing Count to 1, then point your camera
at the first subject. As the time-lapse video is being
recorded, Star Adventurer 2i will pan from the first
subject to the second subject then stop. By setting
Swing Count to 2, it will pan to your second object,
OFF
then back to your first object, then stop. By using
Swing Range values greater than 1 you can have
Star Adventurer 2i pan back and forth multiple times
during the video. Set Swing Range to 0 for no panning
and to an even number to always end up where you
started.
Speed (Deg/Hr): Speed determines how quickly
Star Adventurer 2i will pan. In most cases, you do
not need to set this parameter unless you want to
control the panning speed but are not concerned with
the actual video time span. If you do not want Star
Adventurer 2i to pan in your time-lapse video then set
Speed to 0.
Clockwise: ON will cause Star Adventurer 2i to
rotate left to right (viewing down with the Mounting
Platform on top). OFF will cause Star Adventurer 2i
to rotate right to left.
WiFi Off on Run: When enabled, Star Adventurer 2i
will automatically turn off Wi-Fi at the start of a task to
save power. Wi-Fi can be restored at any time in APP
mode by pressing the Right/Left Button until Button
LEDs start slowly blinking.
