X2 camera setup

Please follow this guide to set up your new Insta360 X2 camera for scanning with Oculo.

 

  1. Remove the battery pack and insert the micro 128GB SD card, then replace battery pack. Please ensure that your SD card is 128GB and says 'V30' on it.


  2. Turn on the camera, by pressing and holding the power button. 

  3. Update firmware and activate camera by following the Insta360 instructions below (also found here).

    Note: this is the Insta360 app that is required for this step:



     
  4. Format your new SD card from the settings menu, as shown in the video below. Formatting an SD card will delete any data from the card.

     

  5. Turn off voice control for the camera. You wouldn't want to accidentally stop a recording mid way through your scan! Note - the 'speaking person' icon says "ON" when turned on, and says nothing if turned off.


  6. Ensure that the USB mode is in 'Desktop Mode' to avoid any issues with your computer detecting the camera. 


  7. Gyro calibration - navigate to the gyro navigation setting, then follow the instructions on the screen to complete the calibration. This means sliding the bar left to right and holding the camera vertically for a few seconds.

     

  8. Switch the camera to Timelapse Mode as this represents the optimum resolution:file size ratio.


  9. Please ensure that the cameras lens settings are as per default:
  • +/-                 Auto
  • EV                0
  • WB               Auto
  • Colour          Standard
  • Frame rate   0.5s    (only visible when in Timelapse mode)
