Why RLC-423 Rotates 360° Before Reach to a Preset Point

Applies to: 423, RLC-423W, RLC-423WS, RLC-423S.

We set presets 1-5 as shown in the picture below, and the original position of the camera, we name it as 0°.

In your mind, the camera should go to Preset 1 from 0° directly, and then proceed preset 2-5 in the way (showing as the arrows below).

However, the camera only moves in one direction-- clockwise, thus it will move from 0° to preset 1 in this way as shown below (pay attention to the arrows' direction).

Then move from preset 1 to preset 2.

Move from preset 2 to preset 3.

And then proceed preset 4 & 5.

The reason for RLC-423 to rotate 360 before reach to a preset point is that the camera can correct its cruise calculation only when a full rotation is finished. Thus this is not the camera's fault or firmware's flaw.
