Appendix B: Troubleshooting

Problem:

The CameraMan autoTRACK Camera will not follow the Tracking

Ring Package.

Solution:

1. Is the POWER light on the CameraMan’s front panel illuminated?

• If it is illuminated, proceed to step #2.
• If it is not illuminated, make sure the Main Docking Station is

plugged in and its POWER switch located on the front panel is

moved to the ON position. The POWER light on the front of the

Main Docking Station should be illuminated.

2. Is the TRACKING UNIT STATUS light on the camera’s front panel

illuminated?

• If it is ON, proceed to step #3.
• If it is OFF, make sure the Tracking Ring Power Pack is powered

ON.

• If it is still OFF, check the Battery LOW light on the top of the

Tracking Ring Power Pack. If the Battery LOW light is illuminated,

then the battery is low and needs to be recharged.

• If both the ON light and the LOW light on the top of the Power

Pack are not illuminated, then the battery may be completely

discharged and needs to be fully recharged.

• If the battery is fully charged and the TRACKING UNIT STATUS

light is still OFF, check that the RF CHANNEL switch on the back

of the Main Docking Station matches the position of the RF

Channel switch on the back of the Tracking Ring Power Pack.

3. Is the autoTRACK light on the camera’s display panel illuminated or

flashing?

• If it is ON, proceed to step #4.
• If it is OFF, use the Tracking System Keypad to select one of the

four autoTRACK View buttons.

4. If the POWER and the TRACKING UNIT STATUS lights are illuminated,

and the autoTRACK light is blinking,

• Check to make sure that the Tracking Ring Sensors are attached

properly and are not covered by hair or clothing.

• Be sure that you are standing in the field-of-view of the camera.
