Mount type

Property Object Value

Joint Mobile Displays the mounted joint number. Joints (5, 6) can be changed from the [Setup]-[System Configuration]-[Vision]-[Camera] mounting settings.
Offset Position Mobile Display the relative position from the mounted joint. It is linked to the setting value of the camera's Position property or Joint property. Therefore, changes to these properties may cause the values to be updated automatically. Even in such cases, the values are correct as settings and do not affect the position of the camera in 3D.
Offset Rotation Mobile

Display the relative orientation from the mounted joint. It is linked to the setting value of the camera's Rotation property or Joint property.

Therefore, changes to these properties may cause the setting values to be updated automatically as follows:

When Y is set at +90 degrees or -90 degrees, the X and Z settings are swapped.

Even in such cases, the values are correct as settings and do not affect the orientation of the camera in 3D.

For properties such as "Collision", "Collision Margin", or "Transparent", refer to the layout objects properties.
