Modes

MANUAL — Motor follows the handwheel directly. Turn to move the pole.

AUTO — Motor sweeps back and forth automatically. Turn the handwheel to adjust sweep speed.
Settings: Sweep length — handwheel drives the motor to one edge of the sweep; the arc width is derived from that position.

ROCK — Motor oscillates slowly over a small arc. Turn the handwheel to shift the center of oscillation without stopping the movement.
Settings: 1. Width — handwheel drives the motor to one edge of the arc; width is derived from that position. 2. Speed — oscillation speed.

BLE_CONFIG — Motor is stopped. BLE is active — connect from the web UI to read and edit all settings. Short press Mode to exit back to MANUAL.

Reset log

Every boot adds one entry to the log (last 20 kept). If the firmware hangs, a watchdog reboots it after 4 s, the buzzer beeps 5 times, and the pole position is restored so the rotation limit stays correct. The log entry then shows where the firmware was stuck.

To read it: hold Mode 1.5 s in MANUAL, connect, open the Log tab.

Rotation limit

If the pole reaches the travel limit the motor stops and the buzzer beeps. Press Mode to reset and resume.
