AXB-PT10/30 PosiTrack Camera Controllers
The following table lists parameters for the PosiTrack Camera Controllers Positional Commands.
Parameters - Send_Commands (Cont.)
Parameters Description
Deviation 0 to 127; where 0 is most accurate but can have some jitter.
Default is 2, which means the position can be within +/- 2 from the
specified position.
Distance
0 to 127; distance from the specified position.
Ramp Time 1 to 255; time in 10ms increments that it takes the motor drives to
ramp up to speed.
Positional Commands
GAS
Sets the output to slow
down within the speci-
fied distance of the
specified position for
future 'GxLxxx' com-
mands.
This command can be used for motor mode and servomotor speed modes.
Syntax:
"’G<output>A<distance>S<speed>’"
Variables (See Parameters - Send_Commands section on page 36):
G - output = 1 - 4
A - distance = 0 - 127
S - speed = 0 - 127
Example:
SEND_COMMAND CAM,"’G1A5S20’"
Sets PAN to speed 20 when within 5 of the specified position for future 'GxLxxx' com-
mands.
GD
Sets the current maxi-
mum position devia-
tion for future position
('GxLxxx') commands.
This command can be used for motor mode and servomotor speed/positional modes.
Syntax:
"’G<output>D<deviation>’"
Variables (See Parameters - Send_Commands section on page 36):
G - output = 1 - 4
D - deviation = 0 - 127
Example:
SEND_COMMAND CAM,"’G1D4’"
Sets PAN deviation to 4 for future 'G1Lxxx' commands. Output will stop when it is
within 4 of the specified position.
GL
Turns on the specified
output at the current
speed until the speci-
fied position (as read
by the Pan or Tilt
encoder) is reached.
This command can be used for motor mode and servomotor speed modes.
Syntax:
"’G<output>L<position>’"
Command forces output to go to a preset position using the POT input as a
reference.
Variables (See Parameters - Send_Commands section on page 36):
G - output = 1 - 2
L - position = 0 - 65535
Example:
SEND_COMMAND CAM,"’G1L32000’"
Sets PAN to search for position 32000 as referenced by the Pan or Tilt encoder.
