Documentation for qDslrDashboard v3.4.2 >> LRTimelapse

Post by robertoruiz »

I just start using the app. Thanks for it in regards of the use with LRTimelapse software

I couldn´t find the instructions updated of all the app functions when the LRTimelapse button is pushed:
1) autodirection
2) timer
3) LrTimelapse settings
When to use the "Sart Inverval ramping"
> Ramping easing?
> Ramping Duration?
> Ramping Interval?


How 1,2 & 3 work? What are they for? Recomendations?


I have a Sony a7rII, using the wifi conection

Regards

Roberto

Hello Zoltan
Where can I find the documentation of the function "Ramping easing" and the "Easing type"?
Have the net and your Doku looked for and unfortunately nothing found.

1. When 'Auto direction' is enabled qDslrDashboard will do the correction in both direction (sunset, sunrise).
2. 'Timer' - are you referring to the interval timer?
3. What setting isn't clear?

'When to use 'Start interval ramping' - whenever you need it.
Interval ramping will ramp the interval timer interval from one value to another value over the specified time using the specified easing.

For example:
- you started the interval timer with 5 second interval
- you setup interval ramping for 15 minute ramping and the final ramping interval to 10 seconds using the linear easing
- after you start the interval ramping it will begin to increase the interval and after 15 minutes the interval will be 10 second.

You can find the easing types here: http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qeasingcurve.html

Another question: what do their percentages by auto direction mean and how did you use them?

The percentage is the difference between the reference value and the 'Lux' value in percentages.
At lower percentage the correction in opposite direction will occur sooner (more sensitive).

Are you calculating the percentage as the difference between the reference and lux value, divided by the reference value?
