| For example, try changing the Pan P gain (pan axis proportional gain) from 500 to 50, then hit **Apply**. Or increase the gains and see what happens. Many times, increasing the gains results in some erratic behavior, but don't worry -- you won't damage anything. If you want to go back to the default values select **Action➜Restore default parameters**. There is more information [[wiki:v1:Pantilt_Demo_Pane|here]]. | For example, try changing the Pan P gain (pan axis proportional gain) from 500 to 50, then hit **Apply**.

Load the pantilt demo by selecting it in **File➜Examples➜Pixy➜pantilt** in the Arduino IDE. Upload it, and as long as Pixy is running the default program, you should start seeing the pan/tilt move to track any object that matches signature 1.
