## Parameters

### Matrix

Parameter ID: `GV_MATRIX2HPB_INPUT`

Feed the matrix you want read out into this port.

### Rotation Order

Parameter ID: `GV_MATRIX2HPB_ORDER`

In the **Attribute Manager**’s **Coord** tab you can define the rotation order with which Cinema 4D defines the orientation of an object (see also (s.a. [Rotation Order](https://help.maxon.net/c4d/en-us/Content/html/OPOLYGON-ID_BASEOBJECT_GROUP1.html.md)). Depending on the order, different rotations will result for a given (stationary) object.

The HPB system is used by default.

### H

Parameter ID: `GV_MATRIX2HPB_OUTPUT0` · Range: [-∞..+∞]

### P

Parameter ID: `GV_MATRIX2HPB_OUTPUT1` · Range: [-∞..+∞]

### B

Parameter ID: `GV_MATRIX2HPB_OUTPUT2` · Range: [-∞..+∞]

This is where heading, pitch and bank are output as a radian measure (360° = 2\*PI).

### Vector

Parameter ID: `GV_MATRIX2HPB_VECTOR` · Range: [XYZ ]

Use this Output port to output heading, pitch and bank as a summarized vector.
