Adjusting the minimum start speed of the lens zoom

Perform this adjustment to ensure that the lens zoom will function smoothly in response to the angle to which the zoom lever is tilted when it is used to zoom the lens.

2.Press the IRIS button while holding down the MEMORY button.

3.The IRIS button lamp starts flashing, and the standby status is established.

Setting the travel range (limiters) of the pan/tilt head

Depending on where it has been installed, there may be obstacles within the travel range of the pan/tilt head system with which the system may come into contact.

The pan/tilt head system may malfunction or an accident may occur if the system comes into contact with such an obstacle.

Prior to use, be absolutely sure to set the travel range (limiters: upper, lower, left-most and right-most limits of rotation) of the pan/tilt head system.

Before installing a pan/tilt head as a stand-alone type, set the installation direction switch inside the pan/tilt head to stand-alone installation. (“Suspended installation” is the factory setting.)

If this switch is not set properly, the operating directions of the pan/tilt head will be reversed, and the limits of the pan/tilt head’s travel range (limiters) will not be stored in the memory properly. For details on how to set the switch, refer to the operating instructions of the pan/tilt head.

1.Select the pan/tilt head system using the CONTROL button.

2.Set the upper limit position in the travel range.

Operate the PAN/TILT lever on the control panel to rotate the camera to the position which is to serve as the upper limit position.

Press the PRESET 2 and 3 buttons while holding down the MEMORY button on the control panel.

When the button 5 lamp lights, the setting is completed.

To cancel the setting, press the PRESET 2 and 3 buttons again while holding down the MEMORY button. When the setting is canceled, the button 10 lamp lights.

3.Set the lower limit position in the travel range.

Operate the PAN/TILT lever to rotate the camera to the position which is to serve as the lower limit position.

Press the PRESET 7 and 8 buttons while holding down the MEMORY button.

When the button 5 lamp lights, the setting is completed.

To cancel the setting, press the PRESET 7 and 8 buttons again while holding down the MEMORY button. When the setting is canceled, the button 10 lamp lights.
