PTU-D300 User's Manual (v2.19)

2.1 Overview

Figure 1 shows a system overview. The PTU-D300 includes an integral controller and it
accepts control commands from any host computer over RS-232 or RS-485. The basic D300
connections are: D300-power from a DC power source, and Pan-Tilt Control via RS232/485.
In addition to pan-tilt control connections, "Payload Pass-Thru" internally routes payload
signals such as video, payload power, and other payload connections from a single stationary
connector in the PTU base to a single payload connector that moves with your payload.
The PTU-D300 can be controlled from any host computer using the built-in ASCII protocol
described in this manual. For high speed, hard real-time controls (such as tracking), a binary
protocol is supported via a C Programmers Interface (PTU-CPI). Drivers are also available in 3rd
party software packages such as LabView and digital video control systems.
