Safety when Working with Robotic Equipment

In normal operation remote-controlled equipment can move suddenly
and without warning. Since audible warnings are not suitable for use
within the studio environment, it is recommended that only trained
personnel be allowed to work in the active areas where remote-
controlled heads and pedestals are located. The safe operating zone is
a minimum of 1 m (3 ft).

Safety Notes for Operators
Operators must familiarise themselves with the working footprint of the
robotic head, including all associated equipment (lens, zoom and focus

controls, viewfinder, prompter, etc.) to prevent inadvertent collisions or
injury to personnel.

If personnel are too close to a head or pedestal that is about to move,
the operator should prevent the motion from starting or stop the motion
if it has started.

We strongly recommend that the operator verifies visually that the
active area is clear of hazards and personnel, both before and during
remote operation.
