* You will need to set up a “workspace” - this is just the directory where your pictures will get saved when you save them. The instruction manual states, under Workspace Setup - “NOTE – Do not select a folder with automatic cloud backup like Google Drive.” - this is generally because such a system makes it difficult to write to the drive while the auto backup is updating what is being written - it can sometimes cause conflicts.

You can select either 2D or 360 here. 2D will take one picture. The 2D Capture Mode is used to take still shots. When 2D is selected as the Capture Mode, the default will be to capture Still Shots in Normal mode. However, with Ortery’s Image Capture software several capture types and styles of still shots can be taken. You can also select 360 as the Capture Mode which allows you to capture and create 360 product animations, 360 videos and Custom Defined image sequences that utilize the turntable to capture images at specific angles.
