Use external input signal or onboard button to control time mode, fast-as-
possible mode, and/or distance mode
Default String:
@7:Control_mode= 0
Values:
0: feature disabled [default]
1: high input signal enables time mode, fast-as-possible mode, or
distance mode
2: low input signal enables time mode, fast-as-possible mode, or
distance mode
3: onboard button starts time mode or fast-as-possible mode
4: onboard button toggles (starts/stops) time mode or fast-as
possible mode
Description:
This option allows you to use an external input signal to enable time mode, fast-as-possible
mode, or distance mode or to use the GeoSnap system onboard button to start and/or stop
time mode or fast-as-possible mode. If this feature is disabled and the GeoSnap system is in
time, or fast-as-possible mode, it will start sending trigger commands as soon as it is
powered. If this feature is disabled and the GeoSnap system is in distance mode, it will start
sending trigger commands as soon as a GPS lock is acquired.
If enabling with an input signal is selected (options 1 or 2), time mode, distance mode, or
fast-as-possible mode triggering, will only be allowed when the external input signal is held
high or held low (depending on the option selected). This is useful if images are only desired
during a certain portion of the flight.
If option 3 is selected, time or fast-as-possible triggering won’t start until the button is
pressed and subsequent button presses will be ignored. If option 4 selected, time or fast-as-
possible triggering won’t start until the button is pressed and subsequent button presses
will stop and start the triggering.
