Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which could result in
moderate or minor personal injury, and/or property damage if ignored
or mishandled.
CAUTION
When Installing the Pan/Tilt Head
• Take care so that the housing’s front end does not contact a control input cable.The cable may be damaged
by the rotation of the pan/tilt head, possibly causing a fire.
When Using the Pan/Tile Head
• Do not place heavy objects on the unit as this may cause the unit to topple over or fall down and personal
injury could result.
• Use a dedicated power supply unit. The use of other power supply unit could cause a fire.
• Do not stand or sit on, nor hang down from the unit as this may cause the unit to topple over or fall down,
possibly resulting in personal injury.
• Have the unit periodically checked by the dealer from where it was purchased. Should the unit or its mount
corrode or structurally deteriorate, the unit could fall down, possibly resulting in personal injury.
2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The TOA C-PH200 is a rainproof and dustproof motorized pan/tilt head designed for both indoor and outdoor
applications. Mounted with a camera housing (TOA’s C-CH100, C-CH100FH and C-CH200 Series) containing
television camera and zoom lens, etc., the C-PH200 pan/tilt head can be rotated vertically and horizontally by
remote control, thus greatly extending the camera’s range of surveillance capability.
The C-PH200 also features an Auto-Pan function (continuous horizontal rotation with automatic reverse).
3. HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
• Be sure to switch off the power before cleaning. To clean, wipe with a dry cloth. When the unit is extremely
dirty, use a cloth dampened in a neutral detergent. Never use benzene, thinner and chemically treated towel
as the use of such volatiles could damage the unit’s finish.
• Avoid leaving the Auto-Pan function enabled for extended periods of time, as the unit’s operating life may be
diminished due to lubricant loss and resulting gear wear. The unit’s estimated life span is approximately
5,000 hours or 200,000 Auto-Pan reverse operations.
• Avoid exposing the moving assembly to strong shocks, as operating parts could be damaged or the unit’s
life span shortened.
• Adjust the center of gravity of mounted components to within the permissible range of tolerance. If the center
of gravity is set outside the tolerance range, the unit may not be able to move on its own, even if the
mounted component is within the permissible weight limit. The movement’s gears may also become
damaged and their life span shortened.
• Unit operation may be impaired due to freezing winter temperatures. Take appropriate anti-freezing
measures when operating in such cold conditions.
