AXB-PT10/30 PosiTrack Camera Controllers
Pre-Installation
There are four SPDT slide switches in the lens control section (FIG. 3). Three of the switches
toggle the lens control selection between servomotor or motor mode hardware for control of zoom,
focus, and iris. The fourth selects between ± 6 VDC and ± 12 VDC control for motor mode lens
functions.
Each PosiTrack unit consists of two main Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs):
!
PosiTrack Processor PCB (PosiTrack Mother Board) contains the main processor, 2MB
FlashROM, and 2MB SRAM.
!
PosiTrack Power Management PCB (PosiTrack Daughter Board) contains power
conditioning circuitry, control outputs/inputs to the pan/tilt drives, and zoom/focus/iris
outputs, and inputs to the lenses.
The following table shows the necessary tools when working on the AXB-PT10 or AXB-PT30.
Configuration Settings
Both PosiTrack units contain switches for setting the control mode, lens control voltage, RS-232
baud rate, and AXlink address. Before installing the PosiTrack unit, you must set the DIP switches,
lens control mode switches, and lens control voltage switch.
Once your settings match your systems requirements, press the SETUP button (FIG. 3) (this
procedure checks for proper lens connection). FIG. 3 shows the configuration switch access port
with AXlink LED, setup button, and lens control switches accessible on the back panel.
When pressed, the SETUP button causes the PosiTrack unit to briefly exercise a preset series of
10-degree test motions on both the pan and tilt axis; allowing the installer to verify correct
installation. You must configure the PosiTrack software to match the switch settings.
An SPDT switch is a Single Pole-Double Throw switch. This switch is completed at
both positions. An example is the Volt switch that is active in both the 6 and 12
positions.
