To create a new preset, select any preset from the Presets list, make any
changes you want (or not), and save it with the [Save] bu�on. If you enter a
new name, a new preset will be created, otherwise the current preset will
be overwri�en.

Programming a preset using parameters

A programming method available star�ng with firmware version 02134.
This method of programming, or crea�ng, a preset is reduced to simply
passing some parameters in the url. The created preset is assigned to one
of MECHA's bu�ons, so it can be executed by pressing that bu�on, and the
le� or right bu�ons.
Being connected with the smartphone to the MECHA's SSID (MECHA's Wi-
Fi), enter one of the following urls in the browser address bar and tap
Access:
192.168.8.1/preset?b=1&s=12&p=2
192.168.8.1/preset?b=1&f=30&p=2
The page will ask for creden�als, which are: admin, Mecha (by default).
Now, if you press the bu�ons [1]>, or [1]<:
• MECHA takes 12 shots around (s=12), if you entered
192.168.8.1/preset?b=1&s=12&f=30&p=2
• or it will start to shoot a full 360 panorama for a 30 mm lens (FF equiv.)
(f=30), if you entered
In both cases will be a pause of 2 seconds a�er each shot (p=2).
The parameters passed in the url are as follows:
• The first parameter is b and refers to the bu�on to which the preset is
assigned. Possible values are 1, 2, and 3, because MECHA has three
bu�ons with numbers. This parameter is required.
• The second parameter - s - is the number of shots around; the third
parameter can be used instead.
• The third parameter is the focal length - f - and it is op�onal. If you
provide this parameter, the panorama will be spherical, otherwise it will
be cylindrical.
• The fourth parameter - p - is the pause a�er each shot, and it's op�onal.
The default value is 1 second.
