1. Safety Instructions
WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death
or serious injury.
Follow all CAUTION notices to reduce the risk of personal injury, prevent damage to the
StackShot 3X controller, accessories, and devices (computers, cameras, flashes, etc). Failure to
follow all CAUTION notices may void your warranty. CAUTION may also indicate a potentially
hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in personal injury.
The safety alert symbol precedes a general CAUTION or WARNING statement.
The electrical hazard symbol precedes an electric shock hazard CAUTION or WARNING
statement.
CAUTION: Only use the AD/DC power adapter (cube) that was included with your StackShot 3X.
Use of other power adapters may damage the controller and/or attached equipment.
CAUTION: The StackShot 3X controller moves your camera equipment and/or the subject you
are photographing. Motion control gives you incredible flexibility for your photography.
However, this motion can cause a shift in weight potentially causing injury or damage if the
equipment is not properly secured and/or balanced. It is your responsibility as a user to ensure
the equipment will remain properly secured and safe. Additionally, incorrect settings or misuse
of the controller could potentially damage your equipment. Cognisys, Inc. will not be held liable
for damage to your equipment. To stop the motors from moving at any point touch the display
and/or remove power from the controller.

Improvements and adjustments to the software may happen prior to an updated version of the

controller and not “artist renderings” made to look pretty. StackShot 3X really is that beautiful.
Not big on reading manuals? (What? No thumbs-up? We worked hard on this you know!) We
have a few real world walk-throughs in the “10 - Examples” section. You can always come back
to the technical details if you get stuck.
