Operators guide Safety when working with robotic equipment Safe working environment In normal operation, remote controlled heads and pedestals can move suddenly and without warning. Since audible warnings are not suitable for use within the studio environment, it is recommended that only trained personnel be allowed to work in the active areas where remote controlled heads and pedestals are located. Personnel should be made aware of the potential hazards of working in a robotic environment.
HS-105P pan and tilt head move unexpectedly at any time, and they must position themselves so that any motion would not cause them personal harm. When the robotic heads move, the speeds involved are fairly slow. However, the equipment is still capable of generating sufficient force to cause injury. Therefore, it essential that you exercise caution. In particular, be aware that the teleprompter is usually the fastest swinging element.

HS-105P pan and tilt head Typical installation 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 Multi Controller II. Refer to the appropriate user guide or operating instructions provided with the control system for information on operating the head remotely.
Operators guide Electrical Connection Power supply and Controller connection The HS-105P pan/tilt studio head uses a combined power/data floor cable (AM-SP-CAB-XXX) that connects between the HS-105 rack mounted power supply unit (AM-PSD27-5R) and the Power/data connector ([16], [20], [21]) on the head as shown in Fig. 8. The floor cable supplies the HS-105P pan/tilt head with power and data communications (to/from) the Controller.
HS-105P pan and tilt head the HS-105P studio pan/tilt head using the supplied lens cable. A variety of lens cables are available to suit the servo lens drive supplied with your installation. Native lens drive The native lens drive is usually attached to an appropriate position on the HS-105P studio pan/ tilt head main cover [1]. A combined lens and power/data cable (V3990-5005) is used to connect between the power/data socket on the head [20] and the Power/data In socket on the native lens drive.
Operators guide NOTE: The Power/data connector on the native lens drive cable (V3980-5005) may need to be removed to allow the cable to be fed into the environmental housing. All installations should be performed by trained and competent engineers. HS-105PE-NLD V3977-0001 V3980-5035 Note: The native lens drive must be installed within an environmental housing with the camera and other accessories.
HS-105P pan and tilt head Operation Installing the head The HS-105 pan/tilt head can be mounted to a tripod, pedestal or mounted to a wall or ceiling using a mounting adapter. For installations where the HS-105 pan/tilt head is frequently moved from location to location, a wedge plate and adapter may be used to attach the head to its mount.
Operators guide Leave the camera fixing bolts just loose enough to be able to slide the camera backwards and forwards on the platform [6]. Mount the lens on the camera (if it was not already installed) and any other ancillary equipment such as tally lights, viewfinder, and so on. NOTE: Depending on the camera configuration, it may be necessary to use an intermediate plate to raise the C of G sufficiently to align with the tilt axis.
HS-105P pan and tilt head C of G height adjustment When the fore and aft balance has been achieved, align the payload C of G vertically to the tilt axis as follows: Warning! 1. Switch off the power to the head before making any adjustments to the head. 2. Risk of finger trap in moving parts. The total camera payload can reach 34 kg (75 lb). Take the necessary precautions to safely handle this weight before loosening the platform fixing screws [2]. 3.
Operators guide Maintenance General The HS-105 pan/tilt heads are robustly made to high engineering standards. Generally, aside from checking balance and overall operation periodically (once a week for example), the HS105 pan/tilt head should require no other routine maintenance. Routine Checks During use, check the following: Check the balance of the head and re-balance is necessary. Check the data communications with the controller. Check the overall operation of the head.
