Configuration

Setting pan and tilt movement limits

When the head is first installed, or periodically thereafter, it is necessary to set the limits of
movement for both pan and tilt axes to prevent accidental collision with permanent obstacles or
to keep undesirable areas of the studio out of shot.

Before the limits can be set the Vinten Radamec Fusion configuration software tool must be
installed, either onto a laptop for localised use within the studio or onto a Windows-based PC or
server, typically also running the Vinten Radamec Controller (VRC) software.

To set the pan and tilt movement limits, proceed as follows:

1.

Switch OFF power to the head [18].

2.

Disconnect the Ethernet cable from the head Ethernet port [20].

3.

Connect the laptop/PC running the configuration software tool to the USB port [9] on
the head using the USB system configuration cable.

NOTE:

Setting the pan and tilt movement limits is only necessary when the head is used in
robotic (AUTO) mode and operated remotely from the control panel.
