Limiters

Be absolutely sure to set the limiters (travel range) of the pan/tilt head before use. Depending on where the pan/tilt head system has been installed, obstacles may be present within the travel range with which the camera may come into contact. Contact with any such obstacle by the camera may cause malfunctioning or accidents.

In this case, contact can be prevented by setting the limiters directly before any such obstacle.

Multi function controller (AW-RP655) is used to set the limiters.

The positions of four limiters — namely, the upper, lower, left-most and right-most limits of the travel range — can be set.

Once they have been set, the positions will not be lost even after the power has been turned off.
