Waypoint Event |
Inhaltsverzeichnis
Info
If you use a Shuttercable (Link) you can also trigger a camera with a push button or a 3-way switch on your transmitter.
Tip
A description how to connect and trigger a camera with a Shuttercable you can find here: CameraConnect
Also during a Way point flight you can automatically trigger your camera.
For this we need 3 things:
- Automatic
- Bitmaske (switching pattern)
- WP-Event
(The following settings are valid from SW version 2.00)
Automatic
To trigger a Camera with a Shuttercable or an IR-Ctrl during a Way point flight, you have to activate the Automatic. This can be done with an 3-way switch or also with a push button.
Push button to trigger
If you use a push button to trigger the camera we have 2 positions =>
without activation = OFF (0) |
||
with activation = ON (254) |
To use the Automatic during a Way point flight we have to change the settings for this channel on the transmitter. If you use e.g. a Graupner HoTT transmitter we find this setting under Servo adjustment:
(in this example we use channel 11 to trigger the camera)
1. Change to Servo adjustment:
2. Change the left servo travel of this channel from 104% ... to 0%:
3. Now the Automatic is still activ.
without activation = Automatic (126) |
||
with activation = ON (254) |
Info
The Automatic can be still ON. During a normal flight you will only trigger the camera when you push the button. During a Waypoint flight the camera will trigger automatically.
3-way switch to trigger
If you use a 3-way switch to trigger the camera you can switch between OFF/Automatic/Trigger:
(in this example we use channel 11 to trigger the camera)
Position 1 = OFF (0) |
Position 2 = Automatic (126) |
Position 3 = An (254) |
Bitmaske (switching pattern)
In the settings of the KopterTool under Output you have to set::
- combine with WP-Event |
Bitmask - explanation
With the 8 boxes of the Bitmask you will the switching sequence of Out1. How long a box will switch ON or OFF Out1 you will later set under the WP-Event.
Example:
Under WP-Event you set for example a value of 100 (100 x 10ms = 1 Second).
Each box under "Out1 Bitmask" is then working for this time (1 Second).
So if the boxes are activated as you can see in the picture (the first 5 ON and the last OFF) the switching output 1 will work like this:
1second "ON" - 1second "ON" - 1second "ON" - 1second "ON" - 1second "ON" - 1second "OFF" - 1second "OFF" - 1second "OFF"
Output 1 is also ON for 5 seconds and then OFF for 3 seconds.
Please note:
The program will processing the whole bitmask! If the Waitingtime for a Waypoint is longer, the bitmask will start again.
TIP
A DSLR camera can also trigger very fast. So you better use a short time for the WP-event (e.g. 6-10).
(See also Switch Examples)
WayPoint Event
Each scaled WayPoint in the MikroKopterTool-OSD has a field "WP-Event" (WayPoint-Event).
With each WayPoint-Flight you can trigger i.e. a camera automatically after reaching the appropriate WayPoint.
If the Kopter reaches the WayPoint the Kopter stays there for the delay time set under the tab "Time".
During the delay time the value will be transfered to the FlightCtrl entered under WP-Event.
The functions and the settings of the WayPoints are described here: en/MikroKopterTool-OSD/MikroKopterTool-OSD
Switch Examples
Let's take a few WP-Event values which are assigned for WayPoints and let's have a look to the function of the switch output in some examples.
How would the output switch with this values?
For Information:
The switching operation will be repeated as long until the set "Time" for the WayPoint is counted down. Example: Is under "Time" a 10 entered the Kopter will stay for 10 sec. at that WayPoint and during this time the value of the WP-Event will be transfered.
WP-Event = 0
Is a "0" entered under WP-Event the function is OFF. The output will be not switched and a camera will be not triggered.
WP-Event = 50
Is a "50" entered under WP-Event is the time per casket 0,5 seconds (50x10ms = 500ms = 0,5sek).
WP-Event = 100
Is a "100" entered under WP-Event is the time per casket 1 second (100x10ms = 1000ms = 1sek).
WP-Event = 200
Is a "200" enterd under WP-Event is the time per casket 2 seconds (200x10ms = 2000ms = 2sek).
Here are some examples how you could switch the caskets (other patterns are possible):
