VideoRay Explorer

6.4.2 JOYSTICK SENSITIVITY

VideoRay features two settings for joystick sensitivity – "Normal" mode and "Fine"
mode. The LCD display will tell you which mode you are in:
• Normal Mode: This mode spreads the range of power evenly over the deflection
range of the joystick, and is used when current is strong or the VideoRay must move
more rapidly.
• Fine Mode: This mode has lower power for the majority of the joystick deflection
area, but still allows the VideoRay to achieve full power for full deflection in each
direction. Use this mode when you need to more precise control in low current
situations, where full power is rarely needed.
The joystick sensitivity setting remains constant until the operator decides to change it.
To change the joystick sensitivity to Fine mode, rotate the joystick counterclockwise
while engaging the Auxiliary switch to the "On" position. To change to Normal mode,
rotate the joystick clockwise while engaging the Auxiliary switch to the "On" position.
Note: While there may appear to be some overlap in using the Auxiliary switch for both
third axis function selection and sensitivity, these operations can be performed
independently. If the joystick is rotated while the Auxiliary switch is engaged, the third
axis mode will NOT change. This allows the joystick sensitivity to be changed without
affecting the third axis.

6.5 MONITOR CONTROL

6.5.1 POWER

The monitor powers up automatically when the controller is turned on. The monitor
Power button can be used to turn off the video display while the controller is on.
Pressing the Power button again will turn the monitor on.

6.5.2 SYSTEM

The System button on the monitor is used to determine the video format (NTSC or PAL).
Normally, the format will be set at the factory and should not need to be changed. If the
monitor is not displaying the video image properly, this button might have been
accidentally bumped. In this case, you can restore the correct display format by pressing
the System button.

6.5.3 Additional non-labeled buttons on the display monitor

The four additional buttons on the monitor that are not labeled have no function and may
be ignored.
