The pause switch is there to
keep the Volt powered on and
tracking the encoder and motor
positions.
Pausing does NOT require you
to align the gimbal handle
again, and your previous trim
setting will be maintained.
It’s great for quickly re-
balancing or standing by.
The trim button on the control
box has two functions:
• SHORT-press sets ROLL trim
to the current post angle.
• LONG-press of 6 seconds
reverts roll trim to default.
Control box settings
The three dials on the control box allow you to customize the behavior
of the Volt in two axes, roll and tilt, independently. Additionally, the
damping dial controls how the system returns the sled to vertical. Here
are some general guides to all of the control box switches and knobs.
Settings
The ROLL dial controls the
strength of the motors in the
roll axis. This equates to how
strongly the rig seeks a level
horizon side-to-side.
To help retain subtlty of control,
start with low assist levels and
add strength as needed for each
shot.
More isn’t always better!
Damping works like friction to
keep the sled from oscillating.
Set the damping in proportion
to your TILT strength, but use
as little as possible.
The operator should do most
of the damping (like normal
operating) rather than letting
the electronics do it.
The TILT dial controls the
strength of the motors in the tilt
axis. This alters the behavior:
In normal mode, more tilt
strength equates to stronger
articial bottom-heaviness.
In friction mode, more tilt
strength equates to rmer hold
at the operator’s set post angle,
like drag on a uid head.
