How do I manually trigger the camera? about speed-camera

[pageauc]

There is a setting to align the camera. Not really manual like pressing a button but allows taking images at a selected frequency without motion tracking. Image can be found in recent and is updated every specified seconds so use webserver refresh button to update image. Default is False (Off) so you will need to edit config.py to enable.

    ALIGN_CAM_ON = True      # Default=False  True Saves alignment image to help with camera pointing
    ALIGN_DELAY_SEC = 3       # Default=3 seconds delay between each alignment image in recent folder

Excellent, many thanks, Claude. One more thing (I hope), when changing settings in config.py, how do make them take effect? Stopping and starting speed_cam.py doesn't seem to do the trick. Should I be doing something else?

Thank you.

EDIT: Hang on, I think it's working now.

yes stop and restart speed-cam.py. config.py settings updates will be used
