3.10.5 Setting, Calling and Clearing Presets

The [PRESET POSN] menu option in the Selector Menu allows users to set/store, call ('go to')
or clear presets. To set/store a preset drive the positioner to the desired preset location. Then,
within the [PRESET POSN] menu select the preset number. Next, select [SET] and the preset
position will be stored. Presets can be called by selecting the desired preset with the [PRESET
POSN] menu and selecting [CALL]. Presets can be cleared by following the same steps and
selecting [CLR] in the [PRESET POSN] menu. Calling a preset will send the positioner to the
stored preset location. Clearing a preset will erase the preset location.
Preset [1] and Preset [2] are designated for "Stow" and "Unstow", respectively. These presets
can be called both through the hidden selector menu or through the Stow/Unstow push-button
controls on the front of the Rackmount Controller.
Preset locations are stored in the positioner and not the Rackmount Controller. Therefore,
setting presets is address dependent. Preset [0] is the factory home preset position and cannot
be set or cleared, only called.

3.10.6 Setting Max Pan and Tilt Speed

The [SET SPEED] menu option in the hidden selector menu allows the user to set the max pan
and tilt speed. The max speed setting is displayed as a range from (1-100) and represents a
percentage of the maximum speed of the positioner. For example, if a positioner tilt speed is
specified to be 12°/sec and the max tilt speed value is set to '50' then the positioner will travel at
6°/sec. The max speed setting only affects the speed control for the push-button controls and
discrete inputs. It does not limit the speed control through the USB and RS485 input as the
speed is directly related to the data command being sent to the positioner. To set the max
speed, select the appropriate speed value, from '1-100', and select [SAVE] in the [SET SPEED]
menu option.

3.10.7 LCD Display Back Light Brightness

The [BACK LIGHT] menu option in the hidden selector menus allows the user to set the back
light brightness of the LCD display. To do this, select the desired brightness level and then
select [SAVE] in the [BACK LIGHT] menu option.

3.10.8 Setting Baud Rate

The [BAUD RATE] menu option in the hidden selector menu allows the user to choose the data
Baud Rate for the control commands. To do this, select the desired baud rate and then select
[SAVE] in the [BAUD RATE] menu option.
