Set And Forget

"set and forget" is a type of setup where a previously created alignment can be automatically loaded and tracking started it is useful in a setup where there are no changes to a environment and works best when used in conjunction with circular marker tracking it's primary benefits are • saves time when starting the system on a day to day basis • prevents the world alignment from changing each time it is done process once an alignment has been created, it is easy to make this load automatically whenever the ncam system is powered on make sure the alignment you wish to load by default is currently active you can see the currently active alignment in the dashboard or the full ui make sure that all preferences and settings are configured correctly ensure that " on air " mode is activated if necessary, re save the alignment again to make sure that any changes will be persisted in the full ui enable the " auto load last project on startup " option in the preferences now every time the ncam software is started it will automatically load this alignment and attempt to connect to the ncam hardware start up order it's important to think about the start up order when loading alignments if the camera or connection box is not connected or not powered when the reality software starts, then the loading will fail as it will not be able to connect to the hardware try to always power on the camera (and connection box if using one) first before starting the ncam reality software
