Motion Remote Examples
Example 1
Objective: Create a motion control that will allow a tap on the front of the device to toggle playback of the text.
- Enable the Motion Remote by setting the Enable switch to the ON position.
- Create a new motion control with the + button.
- Select the control in the list to configure its settings.
- Ensure the Enabled switch is set to the ON position.
- Press the Control option to select a prompter control to assign to the motion control.
- Select Toggle Play from the list of prompter controls.
- Select Acceleration as the Motion Type.
- Select Threshold as the Detection Type.
- Select Z as the Axis to use.
- Set the Threshold to around 20%. Adjust this value to change how hard of a tap is required to trigger the control.
- Set the Trigger Delay to 0.3 seconds. This will ensure that the control will not be triggered more than once on a tap.
- Tap on the face of the device to start or stop playback of the text.
Example 2
Objective: Create a motion control that will allow tilting the device left and right to control scrolling the text up and down.
This example is for use on a device in landscape-right. For other orientations it may be necessary to use a different axis.
- Enable the Motion Remote by setting the Enable switch to the ON position.
- Create a new motion control with the + button.
- Select the control in the list to configure its settings.
- Ensure the Enabled switch is set to the ON position.
- Press the Control option to select a prompter control to assign to the motion control.
- Select Scroll from the list of prompter controls.
- Select Gravity as the Motion Type.
- Select Y as the Axis.
- Set the Threshold to around 10%. This will prevent the control from triggering when near zero, without requiring it to be exactly zero.
- Adjust the Influence as needed. The size of the document and font size will affect the influence. It is best to adjust this value while testing the control.
- Set the Invert Axis switch to the ON position. If in landscape-left, do not invert the axis.
- Tilt the device left and right to scroll the text.
