Setting up the Photo Table and the Camera

* Turn on the Photo Table before bringing up the Ortery Software. The power switch is a large red switch on the bottom right of the front of the machine. Note that turning on the power has no visual effect, but is necessary for the software so that the system can be found when the software is brought up.

* Turn on the camera as well. Make sure the camera is set up according to the instructions linked to by the User Manual - “Compatible Camera Settings - To see the required settings for any compatible camera, visit: http://www.ortery.com/camera-settings” (p. 7). The Camera is a Canon EOS 7D Mark II - Camera Manual (link to the manual here might be nice).
