The “Movement detected” message appears when the Octopodd’s sensor detects movement during a session.

Possible causes

  • Laser safety – The system cuts off the laser for safety if the device moves during operation
  • Shockwave – If you are using a firearm, the shockwave from the shot can cause the device to vibrate
  • Floor vibrations – Vibrations transmitted through the floor can trigger the sensor

Solutions

  • Make sure the Octopodd is placed on a stable surface
  • Move the device away from the source of vibrations
  • Use an anti-vibration mount if necessary
  • Check that the tripod or mount is securely fixed
