I am trying to set up a preset shot, but the head isn’t returning to the correct position or

zoom/focus setting.

This could be caused by a number of things. First, if using a teleconferencing lens (TYPE 2),

make sure you are going into POSITION mode (POS button) before trying to set the preset.

If you are not in POSITION mode, the lens’ zoom and focus settings cannot be mem o rized.

Please note that if you have a newer head with the TYPE 5 lens control (shown on the serial

number sticker), you don't need to enter POSITION mode before saving a preset. Also, the pan

and tilt joystick must be moved for the head’s position settings to be recorded.

If the zoom and focus settings are retrieved correctly, but the head is landing high or low when

recalling, then the weight balance of the camera/lens assembly is probably off from front to

rear. The assembly must be centered from front to rear to provide accurate recall; if it is bal-

anced too far front, then it will probably be low in recalling presets above horizontal. If bal-

anced too far rear, it will be high in recalling presets above horizontal. Remove the camera/lens

assembly as needed in order to check the balance, and replace it in the correct position.

My head starts moving on its’ own after going to the home position; why?

See the explanation on page 10. After August 10, 2004 PT101 heads automatically recall pre-

set 1 after going to the home position at power up.
