Setting the functions

Setting the movement range of the remote camera (limiter function)

This unit has a limiter function which is a function that limits the movement range of the remote cameras.

There are four limiter positions: the upper, lower, left and right limits of the movement range.

When the AW-HE50 is used:

Depending on the nature of the AW-HE50’s installation location, there may be some subjects inside its movement range which it is not desirable or necessary to shoot.

In cases like this, the shooting range of the AW-HE50 can be limited by setting limiters in front of those subjects which are not to be shot.

When any other remote camera is used:

Depending on the installation position, there may be an obstruction in the movement range, and the remote cameras may come into contact with this obstruction.

If the remote cameras come into contact with an obstruction, trouble or accidents may result.

In cases like this, a limiter can be set in front of the obstruction to prevent contact.
