GYROSCOPE AND ACCELEROMETER CALIBRATION
The internal three-axis gyroscope and three-axis accelerometer need to be calibrated for the Horizon overlay
to function properly. The Gyro/Acc calibration file is stored in the flash memory of the camera, so you DO NOT
need to recalibrate after restoring the camera or upgrading firmware. For more information, go to “Horizon” on
page 59.
To calibrate the Horizon overlay, follow the instructions below:
1. Turn on the camera and place it on a level surface.
2. Wait for the camera core temperature to reach room temperature.
3. Go to Menu > Settings > Maintenance > Calibration > Gyro/Acc and select Low Temperature Calibration.
4. After the calibration finishes, wait for the camera core temperature to reach maximum operating temperature.
5. When the camera reaches maximum operating temperature, select High Temperature Calibration.
SELF-TEST
The Self-Test menu includes: Enable Sensor Test Pattern and Touchscreen.
ENABLE/DISABLE SENSOR TEST PATTERN
The Sensor Test Pattern feature is only used during manufacturing. The sensor test pattern is a white screen.
TOUCHSCREEN
To perform a touchscreen self-test, follow the instructions below:
1. Go to Menu > Settings > Maintenance > Self Test.
2. Select Touchscreen.
A grid of green squares displays on the touchscreen.
3. Touch each box with your finger.
Each green box turns blue.
4. To exit the self-test, perform one (1) of the following actions:
‒ Touch all of the boxes, so that they are all blue.
‒ Press and hold the touchscreen.
‒ Press the Enter or Menu button on the DSMC2 Sidekick.
