Power On and Test – MECHA C2
In this video, we are going to show you how to power on and test MECHA C2.
First, insert the batteries.
Now, power MECHA on by pressing and holding the power button for 3 seconds, then wait 45 seconds, enough for the entire starting sequence to be performed.
We recommend that you test MECHA without a camera mounted first.
Also, for this test, notice that the upper rail is in the parked position.
Long press the menu button to show the Preset Menu on C2's display.
Page 1 of this menu is already selected.
Otherwise, use the right or left button to go to the next or previous page.
Use the down arrow button to find the PANORAMA TEST PARKED option,
and launch the test pressing the middle button of C2.
This is a preset for shooting a three-row panorama, using a kit lens around 29mm, 12 shots per row, plus a shot for both zenith and nadir.
For row 1, the upper rail is in the horizontal or level position.
For row 2, the tilt is -45 degrees.
And for row 3, the tilt is + 45 degrees.
Zenith shot in parked position, and nadir shot in raised position.
If the test without a camera is successful, you can mount your camera on the upper rail and repeat the test with the camera mounted.
Power MECHA off, by pressing and holding the power button for 3 seconds.
