To zero these you first set the
focus to infinity (

wide-angle (zoomed out all the way), iris/aperture to wide
open and then use the relevant Zero > Direct Zero Axis menu
option to set those lens positions as the zero points in Flair.

Any model mover axes like Turntable.
7. In Flair, click on the Engage Robot button.

forward and tucked under).
9. Set the soft limits for the rig axes in Flair as required:

Lens Control Motor limits (if using external LCMs)

Any model mover limits

It is not recommended that you change the soft limits on the
arm; if not done correctly it can lock up the arm.
