8.14 Motor Power Save
Normally when the motors are not moving a small amount of holding torque is applied to
maintain positional accuracy. StackShot 3X defaults to having the power save setting set to
“No” (holding torque will be applied). This holding torque consumes current which reduces the
duration that you will be able to run on battery power. If you need maximum battery life turn
the “Motor Power Save” to “Yes”.
CAUTION: If you plan on using a slider at an incline/angle we recommend that you do NOT turn
on “Motor Power Save” – the camera platform may slide without the holding torque applied.
8.15 LCD Power Save
Normally the LCD display is always on (“LCD Power Save” defaults to “Off”). If the power save is
turned “On”, the LCD backlighting will turn off after 10 seconds of inactivity. To turn it back on
you simply have to touch the display again. Normally touching the display will abort any
operation that is currently active. If the power save is turned “On”, the first touch will turn on
the display and the second touch will abort the operation. The backlighting will last tens of
thousands of hours – so it is not used for extending the life of the display. It is useful for
maximizing battery life or eliminating any light from the controller.
8.16 Haptic Feedback
“Haptic Feedback” is that vibration or buzz you feel when you touch the display. It defaults to
“On”. If your controller is mounted on some surfaces the vibration may cause a rattle that is
distracting. You can turn off the vibration by pressing this button.
