USER MANUAL
indication is also an indication of any errors detected. If any error is shown, look at the troubleshooting
guide in chapter

.
The bottom row of the screen shows currently connected controller (such as the Dominion) and
which camera/lens (FIZC) interface dongles are currently connected and identified.
2.6
SETTINGS
In addition to the settings listed in the section for tuning (section
2.4
), the Newton has a number
of other settings. These can all be accessed from the
Remote tune
tab in the settings menu in the
Dominion.

2.6.1
STOW ENCODER
There are two different ways that the
Stow
mode on the Newton can work. When
STOW ENCODER
setting is set to “DISABLED” the stabilization will be disabled and all motors turned off. When
“ENABLED” the stabilization will remain in a basic mode and use encoders to hold the camera in a
neutral position.
2.6.2
MAX/MIN ANGLES
These settings allow updating of the software limits for control.
The angles given for min/max angle is IMU/world angles, not angles of the joints of the head.
2.6.3
ANGLE CORRECTION
In some cases there might be a small deviation between what the camera sees as zero-angle and what
the electronic control system considers zero-angle. In that case a small correction can be applied by
adjusting the
ANGLE CORR
settings.
