1. Gimbal Motor Adjustment
The Auto Tune Stability button allows for automatic adjustment of each motor’s stiffness settings (as relayed
from the sensors and how the Ronin sees each axis’s interaction) to accomplish an optimized setting.
Besides tuning stiffness, there are other electronic settings being tuned. It is highly recommended that the
Auto Tune Stability button be tapped whenever there is a new camera configuration mounted, including a
lens change or accessories change. This will offer the best stability and the most optimal settings.
Each axis has its own stiffness and trim adjustment. The motor stiffness adjustment allows fine tuning of the
amount of power applied to the motors as they react to the balancing of weight on each axis. The higher
you can adjust the stiffness settings without having any vibrations or oscillations from the gimbal, the better.
A majority of the time, the Auto Tuned settings will be suitable. The Trim adjustment controls the preset
amount of trim applied to each axis off center. The default setting of 0 degrees represents center.
2. Gimbal SmoothTrack Mode
When SmoothTrack Mode is enabled, the Ronin will can be "steered" by the camera operator’s
movements in the Pan and Tilt axis. This steering/translation speed can be adjusted for each axis
independently. When the Ronin's top bar is rotated left or right, the camera will smoothly pan and slow
down to a stop. Under the SmoothTrack options, the Pan Axis and the Tilt Axis can be independently
adjusted.
Pan Axis speed will determine how fast the camera will travel while translating a pan movement. Pan
deadband will determine how much movement the gimbal will tolerate prior to translating the camera’s pan.
Tilt Axis speed will determine how fast the camera will travel while translating a tilt movement. Tilt deadband
will determine how much movement the gimbal will tolerate prior to translating the camera’s tilt.
The Pan and Tilt SmoothTrack speed can be tested. Ensure there is no obstruction of the camera
when tapping these Test buttons.

1. Controller Deadband
Onboard controller and the remote operator controller can have independent pan and tilt deadbands
of movement. The larger the deadband, the more deadband there is in the stick movement prior to the
input being translated to actual movement of the gimbal.
