Orientation problem

I am controlling my D7200 from a laptop using Helicon remote. Sometimes the image orientation switches back and forth between Portrait and Landscape almost continuously. Helicon have suggested that the problem is in the Orientation Sensor of the camera. If so, does anyone know how to fix this?

many thanks

This is just a guess, but would changing how you have your Auto Image Rotation set help?

Thanks. That took care of it. As the other poster suggested, this only happened when pointing straight down for macrophotgraphy
