AXB-PT10/30 PosiTrack Camera Controllers
1. Ensure that there is enough slack in the lens, camera, and PT10/30 AXlink cables to
accommodate the full range of pan motion.
2. Confirm that the necessary programming has been done to the system before beginning the
installation process.
3. Mount the camera controller to the desired horizontal surface.
4. Pan the unit as far to the left as desired and enter this position into the Axcess program as the
left pan-limit stop. The LEFT limit stop MUST be set left of the Home position.
5. Pan the unit as far to the right as desired and enter this position into the Axcess program as the
right pan-limit stop. The Right limit stop MUST be set right of the Home position.
6. Pan to both programmed stop positions and ensure the pan-limit stops are set correctly.
Tilt Characteristics
The tilt drive is factory set to a maximum tilt range of ± 90° (for a total of 180°). The maximum tilt
rate is 35° per second. 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 by an AMX Axcess programmer before beginning.
Refer to the Specifications section on page 1 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. Repeat the instructions in the Pan and Tilt
Characteristics sections to correct the problem.
If you are using firmware version 1.01, do not set a preset at the same location as a
limit stop.
