# DJI M400

### Before you begin

The 6X Sensor requires stand alone mode for use with the M400. In this mode the 6X uses GPS data from the light sensor/GPS module to determine when it should trigger the camera. 

View the links below to learn about the Standard Operating Procedures for stand alone mode, and how to change overlap settings.
