New Cameras.

Post by Krzys »

Hello.
New cameras have arrived.
Thank you.
I have a question.
Is the direction of mounting the camera looking up important?
Do I fix it so that it will be good in the future?
Because of the place, I have a problem with assembly so that the control lever is in my direction.
Can I turn it around 90 degrees with impunity?
Regards.

The orientation is important. The current software does not support image rotation (but thank you for the idea, it should be relatively easy to add). For future, it would be good to trim, so you are ready. The lever is long, but the camera is static. If you can attach the cable and secure the cable otherwise, you can cut the lever short.

@Juha, What is the correct up-camera orientation? From the assembly photos it is not clear to me and I'm wondering if I got it 180 out... ?

I mounted the support extrusion nearest the front of the machine compared to the center of the up-camera... which is the reverse of the Z axis mounted down-camera. Did I make a mistake on the assembly?

I have noticed that all of my movements when using the up camera are reversed.

This may explain why my nozzle pickups are often skewed. As in the nozzle wobble corrections may be getting applied backward.

I have the 3d printed camera carrier as opposed to the machined camera carrier.

The adjustment lever in the 3d printed holder should point towards the front of the table.
