MECHA C2 User’s Guide v.02.8.6

In both cases will be a pause of 2 seconds after each shot (p=2).

Let's now explain the above examples and see how you can modify them to

create your own preset.

The parameters passed in the url are as follows:

● The first parameter is b and refers to the button to which the preset will be

assigned. Possible values are 1, 2, and 3, because MECHA has three

numerical buttons,

, and

. There are no numbers displayed on

these buttons of C2 controller, but you may remember that they are also used

to enter the numbers 1, 2 and 3, respectively. This parameter is required.

● The second parameter – s – is the number of shots around; the third

parameter can be used instead.

● The third parameter is the focal length – f – and it is optional. If you provide

this parameter, the panorama will be spherical, otherwise it will be cylindrical.

● The fourth parameter – p – is the pause after each shot, and it is optional. The

default value is 1 second.

● Starting with firmware version (1)2134, you can use h and v parameters to

specify, in degrees, the area of a partial panorama. For example:

192.168.8.1/preset?b=1&f=80&h=100&v=75

Above is the url for a partial panorama for 80 mm lens, 100° wide and 75° tall.

For example, a url with two parameters looks like this:

192.168.8.1/preset?b=1&s=12

Now, all you have to do is replace the values in this example with the desired

values. For example, for 6 shots around:

192.168.8.1/preset?b=1&s=6

and for a full spherical panorama for a 50 mm lens (FF equiv.):

192.168.8.1/preset?b=1&f=50
