RP2A control functions
The following functions are only applicable when operating the RP2A pedestal. These
functions are additional to the other pedestal functions listed above.
Override
The Override button [4] allows the selected RP2A pedestal to continue moving at
quarter speed after the detection of an infrared proximity warning or collision with an
obstacle. Override will have no effect on proximity detection if Infrared Disable is ON.
Override will have no effect on collision with an obstacle if Bumper Disable is ON.
Target disable
The Target Disable button [9] prevents the RP2A pedestal from using the optical
studio targets. The selected pedestal will continue to only use the dead reckoning
positional system.
Backup link
The Backup Link button [10] gives priority control to the control panel in the unlikely
event of the VRC system failing. This allows the robotic camera units to remain in
operation.
Infrared disable
Where fitted, the Infrared Disable button [6] turns off the selected Radamec RP2A
pedestal infrared proximity protection (which arrests pedestal travel before contact
with an obstacle).
Warning!
Risk of personal injury or damage to equipment when the
Infrared Disable button is depressed.
NOTE: If ALWAYS DISBLE IR is enabled in the Configuration – See Panel
options on page 70, the control panel will have the INFRARED DISABLE
function activated by default.
