Motion Remote

The accelerometer and gyroscope can be used to control prompter functions. The most practical method is using gravity and the angle of the device to control scrolling or speed.

Access Motion Remote Settings

1. Press the Settings button.
2. Select the Remotes menu.
3. Select the Motion Remote option.

Activating the Motion Remote

1. Set the Enable switch to the ON position to enable the Motion Remote.
2. Set the Enable switch to the OFF position to disable the Motion Remote.

Calibrating Motion Remote for Gravity

1. Select Gravity for the graph. This setting only affects what is displayed in the graph, it does not affect the behavior of any configured motion controls.
2. Hold the device in a position to be calibrated. This will be the position that the device should be in to register zero for an axis.
3. Press the calibration button for the axis to calibrate. The axis on the graph will be centered on zero.
4. Press the calibration button again to reset the calibration to the device's default position.

Add Motion Controls

1. Press the Edit button to enter edit mode.
2. Press the + button to add a new motion control.

Configuring Motion Controls

1. Select a motion control from the list to configure. The details for the control will be displayed.
2. Set the Enabled switch to the ON position to enable the control, otherwise it will be ignored.
3. Select the Control option to assign a prompter control to the motion control.
4. Choose a prompter control from the list of available controls.
5. Select which Motion Type should be used to trigger the motion control.
   • Gravity: Uses the orientation of the device in relation to gravity.
   • Acceleration: Uses the device's acceleration.
   • Rotation: Uses the device's rate of rotation.
6. Select the Detection Type to use.
   • Continuous: Continuously evaluates the sensor. Ideal for continous controls such scroll changing, speed change and shuffle.
   • Trigger: The control is triggered when the sensor value goes beyond the specified threshold.
7. Choose which sensor Axis to monitor for the control.
8. If using the Continuous detection type, adjust the Influence as needed. This acts as a multiplier for the sensor value.
9. Optionally, enable the Invert Axis option. This will turn positive sensor values to negative values and negative values to positive values.
10. Optionally, enter a Trigger Delay. This determines the amount of time that must pass after a control is triggered before it can be triggered again.
