Fanotec MECHA C2 User Manual page 50

● Status Feedback — In the next area, the MECHA's ID, the Refresh rate of the
motor/controller status and the Current lower rotator are displayed,
followed by the Current angle position for both rotators, and the Current
status (shots remaining, position, repeat set). The Status Feedback (SF)
also reflects the tilt angle for the 2nd axis. When scripting is used, yaw is
shown on Status Feedback as well.
● At the right side of this area, note the Current time, Current date or time
remaining, Current rotation degree interval, Seconds remaining in current
delay.
● Horizontal slider — Allows manual rotation in degrees, relative to the
current position. Click/tap the screen and drag to the left or right.
The controls shown in the image below, are directly related to the current
preset and settings. The values displayed in the fields are the current preset
(sa_7shots, in our example).
● [LEFT] button — Shoots a 360° panorama counter-clockwise. In our
example, the panorama consists of 7 photos, and the first photo is taken
in the current position, followed by the second 51.43° apart, and so on.
● Shots — Number of shots around for a 360° row. Select the number of
shots from the list, or select Custom and enter the desired number of
shots, or the focal length of the lens used followed by mm. The mm2
notation is also accepted. For example, 28 mm2 will compute the full
spherical panorama for a 28 mm lens, using Repeat. If the number of
shots is 1, using the [LEFT] button, only one photo is taken followed by a
rotation of 360° (return to the initial position), if the Wait option is
selected. Useful when shooting (filming) 360°. If the Rewind option is
selected, the rotation is 0° (no rotation).
● [RIGHT] button — Shoots a 360° panorama clockwise. It is similar to [LEFT]
button, but the rotation is to the right.
● [MAP] button — Downloads a PTGui file with the current preset. Use this
button after all the settings are set as you want.
