Targeting the pedestals

Before shots can be created and stored, all robotic pedestal movements must reference a target. The
target for each pedestal is either permanently adhered to the studio floor (Fusion and SP-2000
pedestals) or mounted at the edge of the studio as a vertical bar-code (RP2A pedestals). Studio
configurations without pedestals do not need to reference a target.

Fusion pedestal

Pedestal orientation

For simplicity, the sides of the pedestal are often referred to as North, South, East or West as shown
in Figure 15.

Targeting the pedestal

1.

Select the camera to be targeted on the touch-screen or the control panel.

2.

Use the XY/Height joystick on the control panel to position the pedestal so that its north side (with

the Emergency Stop switches) is over the edge of the target as shown in Figure 16.
