# Starting the Vio

## Startup

Starting with the **drone powered OFF** and the red lever in the unlock position, attach the gimbal to the dovetail connector on the bottom side of the drone and lock the red lever in place.

Power on the controller, open the Herelink Settings and IGC applications. Then power on the drone and allow the startup sequence to run. Initialization will take approximately 1 minute.

When initialization is complete, you will see the Vio action menu populate on the right side of the screen. The HDMI video feed will display camera settings in green on the left side of the screen.

The camera is NOT set up to trigger photo captures during an automated mission.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.gremsy.com/payloads/vio/case-study/gremsy-vio-x-if800/starting-the-vio.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
