2.3 Cable connection
Before making any connections there are 3 rules you should always
apply:
1.
When wiring Pano360 make sure all the connections are correct – if
the cables are not connected correctly the on-board electronics may
be damaged. Always double check that you have proper connections.
2.
Make sure the cables are long enough and there is nothing in the
way of the camera (for example retractable legs) so the whole 360°
turn can be made.
3.
Before connecting any signal cables, make sure the multirotor battery is disconnected.
Connecting / disconnecting signal cables while the multicopter is powered can damage the
pano360 and/or the radio receiver.
2.3.1 Servo connection
Start by making sure the servo motor (
Fig.
1-C
)
cable is properly connected to the servo
output (
Fig.
1-H
).
The white cable should be facing inward and all the pins should be connected.

2.3.2 Digital input connection
There are two modes of operation
automatic
and
manual
. For each mode you will be
required to connect the RC inputs (
Fig. 1-I-J-K
) with your radio receiver using a 3 pin female header
cable. The automatic mode enables making panoramas with a press of one button whereas the
manual mode allows to control the rotation by hand with a joystick.
