Now you may hook up the wiring to the Eagle™ control system and power supply, using the in-

structions included with those de vic es. If you are using the Ea gle™ PT-T2 con nec tion block, follow

the instructions included with the PT-T2 for system conﬁ guration choices. Proceed to the next step

ONLY when the system wiring is complete, and all connections have been veriﬁ ed for accuracy.

SETTING THE ADDRESS OF THE PT-101 PAN TILT HEAD

All Eagle™ PT-101 pan tilt heads require a separate address for controlling them by serial com-

munication. Each pan tilt on the RS-485 line has a speciﬁ c logical address.This address may be set

by software control from one of the Eagle™ controllers or software packages, or set mechanically

via the dip switches located under the removable top access panel on the PT-101 head. To access

the address setting switches, remove the six hex head screws securing the cover (two each on

right and left sides, one each front and back. With the cover removed, you will see the main logic

board for the PT-101. A bank of eight white switches can be found near the center of the board.

The convention for the switches is this: down is OFF(or zero), up is ON. With all switches down/

off, the head’s address is set by remote control.

NOTE: These are binary address switches. With only switch number 1 in the up position, the head’s

address is 1. With only switch number 2 up, the address is 2. With only switch number 3 up, the

address is 4. With only switch number 4 up, the address is 8. With only switch number 5 up, the

address is 16. With only switch number 6 up, the address is 32. With only switch number 7 up, the

address is 64. The switches may be conﬁ gured in any manner to arrive at a desired address up to

127 (all switches up=1+2+4+8+16+32+64=127) For example, to set address number 3, switches 1

and 2 should be up. For address 6, switches 2 and 3 should be up (2+4=6).

Note that if the dip switches are set with the unit powered up, the unit power must be cycled off and

back on for the address to be set in memory.
