Tilt Characteristics; Setting The Adjustable Tilt-Limit Stops - AMX AXB-PT101530 POSITRACK CAMERA CONTROLLER Instruction Manual

Installation

Tilt Characteristics

The tilt drive is factory set to a maximum tilt range of ± 90° (for a total of 180°). Tilt limit stops
refer to the vertical range of motion available to the PosiTrack unit and are set via the Axcess
program. The center position marks the center of the range.

Setting the adjustable tilt-limit stops

The Central Controller should be programmed before beginning. Refer to the Specifications section
on page 2 for more information on programming devices. To set the adjustable tilt-limit stops:
1. Ensure that there is enough slack in the lens, camera, and PosiTrack controller AXlink cables
to accommodate the full range of tilt motion.
2. Mount the PosiTrack Controller to the desired surface.
3. Tilt the unit as far up as desired and enter this position into the Axcess program as the upper
tilt-limit stop. The UP limit stop MUST be set above the Home position.
4. Tilt the unit as far down as desired and enter this position into the Axcess program as the lower
tilt-limit stop. The DOWN limit stop MUST be set below the Home position.
5. Tilt to both stop positions and ensure the tilt-limit stops are set correctly.
If you have problems setting the range of motion on either PosiTrack units, you may be setting both
limits on the same side of the Home position. You may need to set a new Home position before
proceeding.
See the Configuration Commands table on page 28 for details on the SET HOME command.
