Camera Mount Setup Page
The Camera Mount Setup Page allows for the configuration of an installed camera pan/tilt/roll mount.
On ROVs, the standard is for just a tilt mount as the vehicle can normally rotate easily. However, if pan and roll servos are installed, there are additional configuration options to set up these axis'.
The options allow for: Output Channel: Select the appropriate output channel from the autopilot that the servo is plugged into. Servo Reverse: Reverses the mount movement. Stabilize: Enables auto-stabilization of the camera based on the vehicle pitch angle. Servo PWM limits: Limits the PWM signal output to the servo. 1100 is the minimum, 1900 is the maximum. Gimbal angle limits: Limits the degrees of rotation.
