You cannot pause while the camera is operating (during exposure time). 

5.  Using Papywizard and your Bluetooth module 

 

With  the  Bluetooth  transmitter,  you  can  control  the  motorized  head  wirelessly  with  the  Papywizard  software.    This  software 

functions with Windows, Mac, and Linux.  Field operation is possible using devices such as Nokia, Neo, etc. 

1.  Connecting your Bluetooth module 

 

Connect  your  Bluetooth  transmitter  to  the  AUX  jack  on  the  motorized  head  then  turn  it  on.  (Once  connected,  the  receiver 

should begin to blink). 

2.  Installing the software 

 

Papywizard  is  based  on  Python  open-source  language.    It  is 

compatible with Windows, Mac OS, Linux, Maemo, OpenMoko...  

 

A free download is available on the following site, as well as on the 

CD in your pack: http://www.papywizard.org/wiki/Download 

 

If  your  computer  does  not  communicate  with  the  motorized  head 

that  is  because  the  computer  is  not  equipped  with  a  Bluetooth 

interface.  You can use the Bluetooth transmitter (optional product) 

included in your pack.   

 

Please go to the forum dedicated to this software if you have 

problems during installation: http://www.autopano.net/forum/f14-

projet-de-ta-te-panoramique-motorisa-e-merlin,orion-papywizard 

3.  Connecting the software to your motorized head 

 

There are two ways to connect, the easiest is presented below.  The other includes connecting the Bluetooth transmitter to the 

computer then declaring the serial port Papywizard uses.   

 

 

Open Papywizard 

 

 

You will find the configuration dialog on Papywizard's main screen.  

Here  you  can  access  the  application  settings.    For  now,  we  are 

going to focus on the "Hardware" tab.  Click on hardware.  

 

 

Configure  the  Bluetooth  driver  then  click  "Choose".    The  window 

will  appear  and    after  a  couple  seconds  it  will  display  the  MAC 

address of your motorized head's Bluetooth transmitter. 

 

 

Click  OK.    Check  "Automatic  connection"  if  you  would  like  the 

Bluetooth  transmitter  to  connect  automatically  to  Papywizard  at 

start up (Attention, Papywizard start up could be blocked due to the 

absence of a Bluetooth transmitter).  

 

The  connection  configuration  is  finished.    Now,  all  you  need  to  do  is  click  "Connect..."  on  the  Hardware  menu  to  launch 

connection through the Bluetooth transmitter.  (Papywizard will display "Connected" at the bottom of the window). 

 

Press  one  of  the  Papywizard  arrows  to  begin  moving  the  motorized  head.  If  the  head  moves,  everything  is  operational.  

Congratulations!
