Proaim Sr. Pan-Tilt Head with 12V Joysck Control 6
JOYSTICK
The joysck is a two-axis variable speed servo controller. The further you move in one direcon the
faster the output to that motor. This will be a lile tricky at rst, but lile pracce will improve your
success.
The joysck may be operated in a handheld posion or from a at surface such as a tabletop, or
aached to the boom arm of Jib.
Aer plugging the power cord into a proper outlet, press ‘power on. The LED light on the control
box should illuminate and the head may jump slightly on start up or shut down. This is normal.
This can be controlled by Dead Spot. Adjust the joysck to ensure correct movement of the head.
It may be necessary to reconnect to the motors if required.
TILT DIRECTION SWITCH
When the head is shied from a Jib to a tripod or vice versa, it needs reversal of direcon as the
locaon of the head will be inverted. By switching “on” the lt direcon switch, we can immediately
reverse the direcon. When the joysck is moved to the up it gives up rotaon as it gives while
mounted on the tripod directly.
PROAIM™ Sr. PAN TILT HEAD
The PROAIM™ Sr. PAN TILT HEAD circuitry is built enrely into the joysck box. The only other
requirement is the AC power pack (provided) or baery power. The power pack can handle 90-240
volts. Users will need the appropriate plug adapter for local use.
POWER CONTROL
To the right and above the joysck is a knob labeled "SPEED".
This is the power control knob. Turning to the right will increase the speed and back to the le will
decrease the speed of both pan and lt operaon. The advantage of power control is to be able to
limit power when only slow accurate movements are needed. With the power control at half power
(approx. 8 volts max. output) the full range of moon on the joysck will be between 0 and 8 volts
making ner adjustments possible. The power control will be usable between a range of
approximately 4 volts to 12 volts.
