More from Server — This option allows you to get more presets from server. See
chapter Download More Presets from Server.
Note that MECHA accessed at 192.168.8.1 is in AP mode, and [More from
Server..] is not available.
MECHA controllers work in two network modes: Access Point (AP) and
Station (STA). AP mode allows the controller to create its own network and
have up to 5 devices to connect to it. STA mode allows it to connect to a Wi-Fi
network (for example, one created by your wireless router), acting as a client.
Out of the box, MECHA works in AP mode. Since it does not have a wireless
modem, it does not have Internet access. A device connected to it may also
lose Internet access. Please refer to MECHA Controller C1 Manual on STA
mode for more details.
Now we will take a look at preset descriptions above and load the preset most
similar to what we want to get.
Loading a Preset
Suppose we want 6 shots around, 1 horizontal row, plus zenith and nadir,
starting from parked position. The most appropriate preset seems to be TEST
1312 Parked, so we select this preset and load it using the [Load] button.
