Dataton Watchout

PreviousPixera v.1NextWatchout v.7

Last updated 8 months ago

it is possible to export the calibration to then use it in Watchout if you are using an open-OS server as you need to install VIOSO 6 on all machines.

Using autoalignment is not (yet) possible on Dataton Watchpax devices due to system restrictions.

If VIOSO is used in "free mode", the export settings must be made manually. In project mode, a preset can be selected when creating a new project.

Presets for Watchout 6 and Watchout 7 already exist to feed Watchout warping & blending data the MPCDI format to apply the calibration information. Watchout 6 uses MPCDI V1, Watchout 7 uses MPCDI V2.

The support for warping & blending differs between Watchout 6 and Watchout 7. Whenever possible we recommend using Watchout 7 in connection with autoalignment due to it's improved flexibility:
