Display Modes: Horizon

To enable, go to Menu > Overlays > Tools > Horizon.

Displays an overlay that provides a reference to the position of the horizon. The Horizon overlay consists of two (2) short side-bars that are always horizontally centered on the monitor, and a single longer horizon-line that adjusts to the horizon based on the orientation of the camera.

The side-bars are green if the pitch is within +/– 1° of the calibrated zero position, otherwise they are red. The horizon-line is green if the roll is within +/– 1° of the calibrated zero position, otherwise it is red.

To add numerical values for the pitch and roll to the Horizon overlay, follow the instructions below:

1. Go to Menu > Overlays > Custom.
2. Select Create..., Clone..., or Edit..., respectively, for the desired overlay action.
3. Select a location on the interface to add the numerical data for the Horizon overlay.
4. Select Motion: Gyro Data (GYRO) from the Item drop-down menu.
5. Select the desired text size.
6. Select Add.
7. Select Save.
8. Apply the custom overlay to a monitor. For more information, go to Monitor Preferences.

NOTE: The internal gyroscope and accelerometer must be calibrated for the Horizon overlay to function properly. For more information, go to Gyroscope and Accelerometer Calibration.
