Installation and Wiring
This section covers the steps necessary to connect and operate a PT10-ADD Additional Camera
Pan/Tilt System. Before continuing, verify that you have received the correct components for your
package. Refer to the PT10-ADD System Components section on page 1 for more information.
Preparing the AXB-PT10 for Communication
When you add one or more AXB-PT10s to your system, it will be necessary to set the AXlink
Device DIP switches on the additional PT10s. The AXB-PT10 that came with your kit was factory
set as AXlink device number 90. The first additional AXB-PT10 must have its AXlink device value
incremented by a value of 1, up to 95 (for a maximum total of six PT10s).
The AXlink Device DIP switch is located beneath the round cover on the back of the AXB-PT10.
FIG. 2 shows the location of the DIP switch and each of the possible AXlink Device DIP switch
settings for additional AXB-PT10s.

Mounting the AXB-PT10
Mount the AXB-PT10 to a flat horizontal surface, either upright or inverted.
Never use the camera cradle to handle or lift the AXB-PT10.
Do not mount a PosiTrack unit in any location where the motion of the camera is
obstructed by any object.
1. Select a surface that can support the combined weight of the AXB-PT10 (8.00 lbs./3.63 kg),
camera/lens (10 lbs./4.54 kg), and control cables. Some support surfaces include the
WM-CAM, PM-CAM, and TM-CAM mounts available for use with these units.
2. Locate the external white position markers located on the pan and tilt axis. The position
markers must align with the pan and tilt axis in order to be considered in the home position.
FIG. 3 shows the camera cradle attachment in the center position.
3. Mount the PosiTrack unit to a flat surface by drilling four holes, according to the mounting-
plate dimensions shown in FIG. 4. Secure the unit to the surface using four 1/4" x 20 machine
