    2323The first thing to do is to edit the configuration, to reflect you camera/lens/head/hardware config. Basic settings are the delay to wait after moving (to let the head stop shaking), the delay to wait while shooting (camera Tv value), and the number of pictures to take at each position (bracketing). See below for specific mode settings.
     
    4444So, these settings must exactly reflect your configuration.

    46 It also needs the start/end positions, which are two opposite corners of the pano you want to shoot. It does not matter which corner you use for start or end, but it will influence the direction the pano will be shot. Note that, depending of the settings, papywizard can start shooting from the start position, or from the end position. This is usefull to avoid the head to go back to the opposite corner before shooting (which takes time and uses batteries).

    4848It is also possible to choose the initial shooting direction. Using ''yaw'' will shoot row by row; using ''pitch'' will shoot column by column. Same, the head can go back to the begining of the row/column before shooting the next one (see [#Shootingdirection Tips and tricks]).

    205205When the Merlin/Orion head is turned on, its internal electronic sets the position of both axis to zero. Be aware that in preset mode, the pitch axis positions assume that the zero is the position where the camera is horizontal; if it is not the case, zenith/nadir won't be real zenith/nadir.
    206206
    207 In order to set a correct zero, you should first put the yaw axis so the camera is horizontal, using a bubble level in the flash connector, and then press the ''Home'' button, to tell papywizard to use that position as origin.
