BTSensor Introduction

BTSensors are camera devices that need to be configured in certain ways to complete specific tasks: tracking objects, referencing the BTSensor’s real-time location or aiming BTSensors. These settings can be entered manually, or automatically configured in Motive by selecting a preset for a BTSensor or BTSensors in a group. As of Motive 2.2, the following tables define the BTSensor settings that are automatically configured when you select a preset. 

Note: The Rate Multiplier applies only when using Motive 2.2. The Rate Multiplier must be "-/x1 for the BTSensors to be syncing at the correct Frame Rate. You must enter the Tracking Preset and/or be in Object Video Mode before attempting to track to ensure the correct Rate Multiplier.

Tip: Rate Multiplier is the rate multiplier or divider applied to the master frame rate of the sync source.
