User manual PANASONIC AW-PB303

[. . . ] These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense. The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons. The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (service) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance. WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR SHOCK HAZARD, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS EQUIPMENT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE. CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR SHOCK HAZARD AND ANNOYING INTERFERENCE, USE THE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES ONLY. Replace battery with part No. [. . . ] Do not install the pan/tilt head in an extremely hot or cold location where the temperature will drop below ­20 oC or rise above +60 oC since doing so will give rise to instability in the operation of the pan/tilt head. To supply power to the pan/tilt head, be sure to use only the AW-PS505 AC adapter designed exclusively for this pan/tilt head. The maximum power which can be supplied to the camera is 2 A (DC 12 V). Do not use your hands to turn the rotating parts. Before installing the pan/tilt head, be absolutely sure to turn its power off. Before checking the pan/tilt head's operations and actually using it, always check to ensure that nobody is within the rotational range of the pan/tilt head. 4 Parts and their functions 4 5 3 1 6 89: ; = < > @ B C 7 2 ?A 1 Rotary head This rotates in the panning direction. 8 Lens I/F connector (12-pin round) This connector is used to control the zooming and focusing of the motorized lens unit. 9 ND/EXT CONTROL connector This output connector is used to perform ON/OFF control for the motorized ND filter, the ND filter of a lens with a built-in motorized extender and the lens extender.

The arm rotates in the tilting direction. 4 Grip This is where the pan/tilt head is held. After tilting the camera as far as it will go both upward and downward from the preset position, allow the camera to return to the preset position. 1 If the camera goes past the preset position when it has returned from the upward direction or if it stops before reaching the preset position when it has returned from the downward direction > This means that the front of the camera (lens side) is too heavy. Shift the camera's installation position back. For details on the connections, refer to the operating instructions of the units concerned. The distance between the camera pan/tilt head and controller can be extended to 500 meters (maximum) using the 10 BaseT straight cable (UTP category 5). The cable for outputting the video signals from the camera pan/tilt head and the cable for inputting the G/L signals to the pan/tilt head can be extended to 500 meters (maximum) using the 5C-2V coaxial cable. Provide the cables listed below for the connections between the camera and pan/tilt head. Make the cables long enough to support the connections when the camera is attached to the pan/tilt head and the pan/tilt head is moved upward and downward. 60 cm: This length differs depending on the camera which is attached and the positions of the camera's connectors. ) 1 DC power cable (DC 12 V, 4-pin Cannon connector at pan/tilt head end) 2 Video output cable (composite video, BNC connector at pan/tilt head end) 3 G/L input cable (G/L signals, BNC connector at pan/tilt head end) 4 Component output cable (component signals: 9-pin D-sub connector at pan/tilt head end; used only when component signals are to be output from a camera with component output connectors) When a motorized zoom lens is used, and its zoom/focus functions are to be controlled from the pan-tilt control panel, select a cable which is long enough to support the connections when the pan/tilt head is moved upward and downward, as with the cables listed above.
