If a camera select button on the workspace is green or white, it is already online and
available for selection/control.

If a camera is offline (black camera select button), refer to the troubleshooting
checklists for heads and pedestals.

If a head is in Manual mode (grey camera select button), it must be enabled from the
controller before the camera can be controlled. Select the camera on the touch screen
or control panel and then touch Opts > Enable to bring the camera unit online.

An FHR-120 or FHR-120 VR (robotic head) will come online.

An FH-100 head will automatically switch from Manual to Auto (robotic) mode
and come online.

If an FH-100 VR head is in VR manual mode, the VR mode switch (on the rear
of the head) must be switched back to Auto before the head can be enabled.

If a pedestal is in Manual mode (brown camera select button) it must be switched to
Auto (robotic) mode at the pedestal and then enabled from the controller before it can
be controlled.

1.

Make sure that the pedestal is powered ON and switched to Auto mode.

Select that camera unit on the touch screen or control panel.
