Live Motion - Motor Preset (Feel)
GoTo positions are targets or presets for a position of the motors. When shooting live you can use
these GoTo points to accurately hit the target that you preset in the time you set, with the cinematic
feel that you set. These points are very useful for long lenses where hitting your targets is difficult
manually, or for perfectly framing a shot. Using multiple GoTo positions are useful for setting up quick
video moves and traversing between these points live.
There are three GoTo presets you can program. To set, scroll over to the GoTo positions pages. Do
this from the main menu by selecting the top menu (Live Motion) and then pressing the right DPad
button or right on the NavStick until you see the GoTo frames headers. The first heading you will see
is the GoTo Presets: Circle. By moving right on the DPad or right on the NavStick you will find the
GoTo Presets: Triangle, L3, and R3.
Programming a GoTo Frame:
1.Target: Set your target parameter by moving all 4-axis to a position you want to lock in as a
preset. Press X to lock in this position.
2.Time: Once Time is highlighted, scroll up and down to program the amount of time/duration
you want your move to take to arrive at your target position.
Hint – The further away your position is from the target, the faster the spectrum will have to
move. This is an easy way to play with a target position. Set a start point and the head in many
directions and distances to see how the move looks and feels. Each time, the spectrum will hit
your target.
3.Ramp: Program the acceleration and deceleration in seconds at the start and end of your
move to the target position. Ramp is included in the overall duration of the shot. In other words,
ramp time is not added to the overall time of the shot.
4.Clear: Press X twice to clear your target position.
Once a preset is programed, you can move the head around freely. When you hit the preset button,
the head will drive all 4-axis to the preset (GoTo target position) with the qualities you programed in to
that preset. Any screen change will stop the move.
