Product specifications

These menu settings do not affect the camera speed when acquiring a preset
target. Presets are solved at the fastest possible speed regardless of the
maximum manual speed selected. Default setting for pan speed is 180° per
second, while tilt speed is 90° per second.
The Pan/Tilt Controller menu also allows the user to enable or disable Zoom
Scalable Pan/Tilt. When enabled, this feature adjusts the pan and tilt speed
relative to the amount of magnification provided. When the camera is zoomed in
on a subject, the speed is slowed down to compensate for the size of the image.
This allows a finer range of motion when looking at close-up subjects. The default
is enabled.
The Pan/Tilt Controller menu includes a compass feature for 22X and 23X
cameras. The compass feature provides a directional title display, a 0-360º pan
reading display and a -2.5º to 92.5º tilt reading display in the format North 312/35.
This feature allows an operator to program and utilize a continuous absolute pan
and tilt display reading. There are two functions associated with this compass
feature setup, Zero Compass and Clear Compass.
To set true North position (Zero Compass):
1. At the camera dome, verify that the camera’s approximate North position
can be viewed and locally panned with a keypad.
2. Using a compass or any other positioning device as a reference, position
the dome’s camera until it is facing true North.
3. Press the A/P key to set this position.
4. The compass title should display N 360/X. N is North, 360º is the true
North setting and X is the arbitrary tilt setting.
When the Clear Compass is set, using the A/P key, the current pan position is
reset to an arbitrary value. This function should only be used for diagnostic
purposes.
On the 23X (day/night) camera, there is a Flip Image option that can be enabled
or disabled. This is used when mounting the dome in an inverted position. When
enabled, be aware that certain functions are reversed.
