12.1 Overview of Auto Pilot
There is an auto pilot function on the HX and GX cameras that automatically executes specific
processing when the power is turned on.
(The auto pilot function can be used from the GX-1 Ver.1.31, GX-5 Ver.1.30 firmware)
The auto pilot function is not operated from the PC or remote control but is a function that is
automatically executed by loading an execution sequence from USB media connected when the
HX and GX cameras are powered up.
With the auto pilot function, the following processes are automatically executed when the power
is turned on to the HX and GX cameras.
(1) Start ARM and wait for the STOP mode from recording trigger input.
(2) Set the save range and save the recorded data as a MCFF file in the USB media.
(3)
Return to (1) and repeat recording.
The sequence execution file that performs this processing is installed on the HXLink and PC as a
sample. The sample sequence is in the following folder with the installer default settings.
Windows XP
C:¥Program Files¥nac¥MEMRECAM¥tools¥AutoPilot¥sample_1
Windows Vista/7
C:¥Program Files (x86 ) ¥nac¥MEMRECAM¥tools¥AutoPilot¥sample_1
The method of executing auto pilot creates the sequence execution file SEQUENCE.DAT for auto
pilot and is copied on the USB media root directory, and is loaded when the HX and GX camera
power is turned on with the USB media connected to the HX and GX cameras.
Startup the HX and GX cameras and when the STOP mode is accessed, all of the steps for the
auto pilot sequence are loaded into the HX and GX cameras from SEQUENCE.DAT on the
connected USB media, and then the auto processing starts.
If the “Video On-Screen Display Settings” under the “HX, GX Video Display” in the “Camera
Connection Settings” dialogue or the “Options” dialogue of the HXLink is set to “Show All”, the
status of the auto pilot sequence processing can be confirmed with the OSD in the viewfinder.
The maximum number of auto pilot sequences is 1000.
Auto processing continues even if the USB media is removed from the HX and GX cameras after
auto processing has started. However, if auto processing is performed using USB media when the
USB media is not connected to the HX and GX cameras, auto processing is suspended.
Additionally, to switch USB media during execution of the auto processing, an UPDATE_DRIVE
command must be entered into the auto pilot sequence to identify the newly connected USB
media.
This section describes the auto pilot sequence creation tool and the procedures to create a
sequence execution file.
Before recording with auto pilot, execute the auto pilot sequence created and make sure the
processing is performed as expected.
