Variable speed | 0.1° to 40° per second, depending on joystick position | 0.1° to 20° per second, depending on joystick positions |
Turbo Mode‡ | 100° per second (50 MPH); 50° per second (90 MPH) | Does not affect the tilt speed |
Preset Mode‡ | 100° per second (50 MPH); 50° per second (90 MPH) | 30° per second |
*If manual limit stops are set, Pan limit appears on your monitor when a limit stop is reached (except when you are programming or running a pattern). This does not apply to scan limit stops.
†When the system reaches the upper limit, Tilt limit appears on your monitor (except when you are programming or running a pattern).
‡The unit supports two wind speed profiles: 50 MPH and 90 MPH (for more information, refer to Speed Profile on page 47).
TURBO MODE
Turbo mode lets you pan left or right at either 100° per second (50 MPH) or 50° per second (90 MPH). Some controllers have a turbo mode button; others switch to turbo mode if you hold the joystick at either full right or full left. Refer to your controller documentation for the appropriate steps.
SCAN SPEED
Scan speed is adjustable from 1 to 40 degrees per second through the programming menu.
PRESET FUNCTIONS
The Esprit system is capable of going to 80 preset locations, each with a
If you command the pan/tilt to go to an undefined preset, erratic operation may result.
Presets 33 and 34 are fixed commands, meaning that you cannot program them. Preset 33 is the “flip” command, which will pan the system 180 degrees. Preset 34 is the “pan zero” command, which will pan the system to the
RANDOM, FRAME, AND AUTO SCANNING
Select preset 97 (30) to start random scanning. Select preset 98 (31) to activate frame scanning (three seconds of scanning followed by a three- second pause). Select preset 99 (32) to start auto (continuous) scanning. Scan limit stops are controlled by software. Refer to Limit Stops on page 32 to program the scan limit stops.
When the pan/tilt reaches a scan limit stop, it reverses direction. Select preset 96 (29) to stop a scan. Any pan/tilt or lens command will also stop a scan.
NOTE: The number in parentheses represents the preset for controllers with 32 presets.
ZONES
A zone is a programmed pan area with set boundaries and identifying label. The Esprit system has a maximum of eight zones, each with a
