pedestal

24

To select manual pedestal movement/steering on the pedestal, rotate the steering mode knob
[10] clockwise to the MAN position and rotate the steering ring [21] to re-engage the pedestal
wheels.

Movement indicators

The movement indicators [25] will flash to warn when the pedestal moves across the floor. The
indicators also flash when the camera unit is initialised by the control system, to confirm the
correct unit has been selected. Consult the relevant Vinten Radamec Control System Operators
Guide for further information (see Fig. 2).

Emergency stops

If the EMERGENCY STOP button [6] is pressed, power to the pedestal is immediately cut and
a moving pedestal will come to a halt. This loss of power will also affect any device plugged into
the Head power socket [29], such as the Fusion pan and tilt head (see Fig. 1 and Fig. 3).

To reset the emergency stop mechanism, twist and lift the STOP button [6]. Power will be re-
instated immediately, but the pedestal will need re-initialising from the control system. Consult
the relevant Vinten Radamec Control System Operators Guide for more information on re-
initialising the pedestal.

Collision detection

If the pedestal collides with an obstacle when in robotic mode, sensors contained in the bumper
strip [10] immediately halt the pedestal (see Fig. 1 and Fig. 15).

Adjusting bumper sensitivity

Collision detection excludes the area of the power box on the South side of the pedestal as
show. Bumper sensitivity can be adjusted for the bumper strip [8] using the bumper sensitivity
potentiometer [14].

CAUTION! Power is not disconnected from the auxiliary (Aux) power socket.

NOTE:

Bumper sensitivity at the control box/alignment sensor is factory set and cannot be
adjusted.
