Enable (Disable) Ball-Down Installation
This menu option should be enabled when the camera is mounted upside down
in the “ball-down” configuration. If it is not enabled, the video signal will be upside
down on the monitor. When ball-down mode is first enabled, the camera rotates
180 degrees and the camera ball flips over. This option is disabled by default.
Warning:
The M-618CS model, which is a mechanically stabilized system, can
only
be installed in the ball-up orientation.
Note:
This option does not display on the M-618CS model, which is a
mechanically stabilized system. This model must be installed in the ball-up
orientation.
Enable (Disable) Aircraft Joystick Mode
In managing the elevation (tilt) of the camera, the joystick can be used in one of
two modes.
Gaming Mode.
Moving the joystick forward causes the camera to tilt up.
Moving the puck back causes the camera to tilt down. This is the factory
default mode.
Aircraft Mode
. Moving the puck forward causes the camera to tilt down.
Moving the puck back causes the camera to tilt up.
The choice of mode to use is a matter of personal preference. One mode may
feel more natural than the other.
Enable (Disable) Twist-to-Pan Mode
This menu entry enables or disables the Twist-To-Pan Mode. This setting has a
significant effect on how the puck is used (summarized in Table 4.1).
Enabled
. Pan the camera by rotating (twisting) the puck to the left or right.
Zoom in and out by pushing the puck in and pulling it out. This is the factory
default mode.
Disabled
. Pan the camera by moving the puck to the left or right, rather than
rotating (twisting) it. Zoom the IR camera in and out by twisting the puck right
or left.
On the M-618CS model only, the color daylight camera zooms correspondingly
with the changes to the thermal camera. While viewing the color daylight output,
you can also zoom by rotating or twisting the puck.
