Installing the Camera System

Now that you've identified the components of your Presenter Camera System, as well as their individual buttons, ports and jacks,
you can begin connecting them to your CameraMan camera.
Removing the CameraMan Connector Block (Upgrade Only)
If you are performing an initial installation of a system package, as opposed to an
upgrade, this is not necessary.
Use the following procedure to remove the CameraMan Connector Block:
1. Turn the POWER switch on the back of the Camera OFF.
2. Disconnect all cables from the back of the camera.
3. Remove the screws that hold the connector block in place.
4. Pull the connector block out, unplugging it from the DB-37 connector. The Main
Docking Station cable plugs into this port.

Mounting the Main Docking Station

You can mount the Main Docking Station with any orientation, but you must mount it within
10' of the autoTRACK camera (use only the supplied CameraMan cable to connect the two
units). Mount the Main Docking Station using the following guidelines:
1. Mount the Main Docking Station in the desired location. Be sure to leave enough
space for access to the connections on the back panel.
2. Verify that the POWER switch is OFF on the front of the Main Docking Station.
3. Mount or place the CameraMan Power Supply in a convenient location near the
autoTRACK Docking station.
4. Plug the 5.5mm female connector from the power supply cord into the DC POWER
jack in the back of the docking station. Do NOT plug it directly into the back
of the camera.
5. Plug the other end of the power supply into a 120 VAC outlet.
6. Connect the antennas to the appropriate connectors and position them both to
point vertically for optimum performance.
For best performance, locate the antenna in free space, at least 6" from the
camera or any wires, metal surfaces, wall, etc.
Make sure the Docking Station is at least 1 foot away from teh camrea unit
See the Main Docking Station Clearance diagram on page 24.
Multi- Camera Applications
In a multi-camera application, refer to the multi-camera section of the General Pan/Tilt
Operations Manual. Follow the appropriate procedure, using the RS-485 connections on the
back of the Main Docking Station instead of the connections on the back of the camera.
