This section describes the operation of the DPT 115 and related system components. The DPT 115 receives serial data commands from one of two sources in all applications, a hardware controller or a computer system. The pan and tilt unit will accept
3.1CONTROLLER
A controller is a device designed exclusively to provide ASCII serial commands to the pan and tilt. These units generally have a joystick for up, down, left, and right direction commands. There will also be some form of seesaw or switch controls for zoom and focus. Switches will also be provided for preset control. The controller will transmit commands in
3.1.1 RS-422
3.1.2 RS-232
3.2COMPUTER
A computer can also be used to provide ASCII serial commands to the pan and tilt. Software may be written to output the serial command over the serial port to remotely control the pan and tilt. A computer program is available from the manufacturer that will allow a user to operate the pan and tilt via the serial port of their personal computer. To obtain a copy of this program call the manufacturer at the technical support center.
