Octane View port only using a camera?

Hello, I've Google but found nothing of what I was looking for. Is it possible to lock the Octane Live Render View-port to a camera specifically but then in my C4D view-ports move around freely without having to be in the camera?

Just disable updates for camera. It should keep it.

Does this mean it'll disable any further renders? As I want it to still render, I just want to have it stuck on my Octane camera instead of my perspective camera.

Hi ErraticFox,
why don't you change to prospective one of the other three orthographic view and use it to navigate the scene?

It will disable any change detection for everythings about camera. Like freezing camera but other detections or render process will continue.

Sure this is another way. I wanted to mention about another way.

Majority of the time I like to work in the Perspective mode and only use the other three if I'm aligning something. In the picture below is an example to clear up what I exactly mean if there's any confusion.

Hi ErraticFox,
you can have up to four different perspective view in viewport:
