C. Re-calibrating Horizontal and Vertical Rotation
Calibrating the EXM system’s horizontal and vertical rotation is a necessary step for EXM systems of all
types. The calibration points serve as a starting point for all other motion limits and commands
entered to the EXM system. If not properly calibrated, the system may not operate correctly.
The EXM system should be calibrated from when installation of the EXM system occurred, but if it is
desired that the monitor’s rotation be re-calibrated it is possible to do so. Please refer back to Step 3
in the Installation Instructions section for directions of how to calibrate, or re-calibrate your EXM system.
D. Travel Limits
Travel limits are used when it is desired to restrict the motion of the monitor to a smaller, more specific
range than the one set as default during system configuration. Travel limits can be used to aid in
avoiding objects that may interfere with the motions of the monitor.
It is important to note that travel range cannot be increased further than that range which was set as
system default during system configuration. If a larger travel range is desired, this must be changed by
reconfiguring the system with the EXM Configuration Tool.
 Horizontal Travel Limits
o Put the EXM system into the Setup Mode (reference Part B of the Operating Instructions
section)
o Move the monitor to the intended point of left-most (or right-most) travel
o The horizontal travel limit should be set within the total allowed factory set travel or total
travel specified during configuration of the system. If a travel limit is set outside the intended
operating area, operation of the monitor may be unpredictable.
o To set the left-most travel point, press and release the CLOSE button
(To set the right-most travel point press and release the OPEN button)
o When the EXM system is brought out of Setup Mode, horizontal travel limits will be set
 Vertical Travel Limits
o Put the EXM system into the Setup Mode (reference Part B of the Operating Instructions
section)
o Move the monitor to the intended point of highest (or lowest) travel
o The vertical travel limit should be set within the total allowed factory set travel or total travel
specified during configuration of the system. If a travel limit is set outside the intended
operating area, operation of the monitor may be unpredictable.
o To set the highest travel point, hold the STREAM button, press the UP button, then release
both buttons. To set the lowest travel point hold the STREAM button, press the DOWN button,
then release both buttons. (On the joystick roll the thumbwheel forward and hold it there,
then pull back on the joystick to set the highest travel point or push forward to set the lowest
travel point. Release the thumbwheel & joystick)
o When the EXM system is brought out of Setup Mode, vertical travel limits will be set
