First, we need to connect to the ORB using Arduino to access to commands needed for video.

Download Arduino:

  1. Open Arduino

  2. Go to Tools > Port

  3. Select the COM port, i.e. usbserial... If it does not appear check normal connection issues, replug the USB cable, power cycle etc

  4. Go to Tools > Serial Monitor

  5. A new window should appear

  6. Change the baud rate in the bottom right of the window from 9600 to 115200 You should see "ORDRE" in ASCII art

Once we are connected, we can adjust the lighting

  1. Copy this command below into the text box at the top of the window Default light setting led,c,60,50,150,150,50,60,255,0,0,0,0,0,# Left Top, Left Bottom, Back Bottom; Back Top, Right Bottom Right Top, Top Light

  2. Press enter

  3. Type “L” to turn on the lights

  4. Type “D” to turn off the lights

  5. You can change the brightness of the lights by changing the numbers in the command above, for example, changing the second number in the command to 150 instead of 50, will make the light more bright

Default capture command: rotate,0,24240,300 How it works: rotate,'direction','number of steps','time between steps’

  • Direction can either be 0 or 1

  • The number of steps, 24240 will rotate the model ORB 360 degrees, so 12120 would be 180

  • The time between steps in microseconds, higher = slower, lower = faster. 850 is the standard capture speed. TEST SPEED CHANGES WITHOUT THE MODEL FIRST!
