HS-102P pan and tilt head Introduction and description The HS-102P is a small profile versatile remote pan and tilt head that can be wall mounted, hung from a ceiling bracket or mounted on to a pedestal or tripod. The head is designed to support a wide range of camera and lens combinations, weighing up to 16 kg (35 lbs).
Operators guide Applications The head is typically installed as part of a robotic system and can be remotely controlled by the Vinten Radamec Control System (VRC), Legislative Control System (LCS) or the MultiController II. Refer to the appropriate user guide or operating instructions provided with the control system for information on operating the head remotely. VRC and LCS installations The VRC system and LCS can control multiple HS-102P heads.
HS-102P pan and tilt head Multicontroller II The Multicontroller II can control up to six HS-102P heads. A typical system includes the controller with joystick control panel, head power supply, EPI interface and remotely operated heads (Fig. 6). Each head has its own dedicated power supply that provides power to the head and data connection between the head and controller.

Operators guide Installation Mounting the head The head can be mounted onto a tripod or pedestal, post, wall bracket or ceiling mount. CAUTION! The installation of the head must be performed by competent and trained personnel. Attach the head to its mount using the six screws provided and tighten securely. To ensure a secure mounting, the screws must protrude at least 5/16” (8mm) into the mounting plate [11] at the base of the head.

HS-102P pan and tilt head Electrical Connections Power supply connection The head is powered by either a rack mounted power supply (AM-PS27-5R) or a modular power supply (AM-PS30-2). A combined power/data floor cable (AM-SP-CAB-XXX) connects between the power supply and the Power/data connector on the head. The floor cable supplies the head with power and data communications (to/from) the controller.

For installation and configuration of the NLD, refer to the Operator Guide for the Native Lens Drive (Publication part no. V3977-4980). HS-102PE with NLD The NLD interface is not weatherproof.
HS-102P pan and tilt head Mounting and balancing the payload For proper operation it is very important that the load is properly balanced mechanically with the centre of gravity (C of G) set exactly on the tilt axis. 1. Start with the camera cradle level. 2. Position the camera on the camera cradle and attach using bolts through the camera cradle into the base of the camera. Leave the bolts just loose enough to be able to slide the camera backwards and forwards. 3.
Operators guide Configuration Range limits The factory default settings for the head clip (range limit) parameters for pan, tilt, zoom and focus are stored in non-volatile memory in the head. If the range limits require adjustment, contact Vinten Radamec or advise on setting the range limits. Pan/Tilt direction When the head is ceiling mounted, the pan and/or tilt senses can be reversed. Contact Vinten Radamec for advise on changing the pan and tilt senses.
HS-102P pan and tilt head Operation The head has no external switches or controls. The head is operated remotely from the controller using the joystick control panel or controller software. Always refer to the operating instructions supplied with the controller for information on panning and tilting the head, and operating the camera lens zoom and focus. Joystick control When the head is operated using the control joystick panel (Fig. 10): Push the joystick left and right to pan the head.

HS-102P pan and tilt head Maintenance Routine maintenance The head is a highly reliable and stable product that requires minimal routine maintenance. Apart from checking balance and overall operation periodically, the head requires no other routine maintenance. Checking balance It is recommended that balance is checked at least once a month to ensure proper operation and to reduce excessive wear on the drive train and potential overheating.
