4.1.1. List of Tools
1.
Normal workshop tools (Note that nuts and screws are metric sizes unless
otherwise stated).
2.
Digital multi-meter (short circuit current of resistance range less than 10mA).
3.
Power Supply 0-30V dc @ 2A.
4.2. Fault Diagnosis
Erratic, jerky or noisy operation, particularly in tilt, is most likely to be caused by
incorrect balancing of the camera/lens system. Check and correct if necessary.
When switched to 'Local' Mode, or with the power switched off, both pan and tilt can
be operated manually to determine if the problem is mechanical. If this is shown to
be the case, then rectify accordingly.
