Connecting the Fusion head to an FBH-175 height drive
When a Fusion FH-100 or FHR-100 head is mounted onto a manual only pedestal, a Fusion bolt-
on height drive (FBH-175) can be installed to remotely operate the elevation of the pedestal from
a Vinten Radamec control panel. The power and Ethernet connections from the Fusion height
drive to the head are shown in Fig. 9.
The height drive has two power output sockets and a single power inlet socket that is connected
to the studio supply. The Head Power Output socket is used to supply power to the head. Note
that the Head Power Output socket is controlled by the height drive and therefore it is switched,
fused and isolated on activation of the Emergency Stop button on the height drive. Each power
connector on the height drive is fitted with a retaining clip to prevent the cable becoming
dislodged causing accidental loss of power. Always ensure that the retaining clip is fastened.
Ethernet connection to the head is supplied by the Ethernet OUT port on the FBH-175 height
drive. The Ethernet IN port connects to the Vinten Radamec control panel via the Ethernet node.
The height drive is supplied with a head communication cable that can be used to connect the
height drive to the head.
