Troubleshooting
Problem:
The Camera Control Keypad will not control the CameraMan
Camera when used in the wireless RF mode.
Solution:
1. Verify that the battery is installed in the keypad properly (see page 3).
2. Verify that the BASE UNIT ADDRESS switch on the back of the
CameraMan Camera, and the BASE UNIT ADDRESS switch in
the battery compartment of the keypad are set to the same set-
ting (see page 3).
3. Verify that the RF command switch on the back of the
CameraMan camera is set to ENABLE (see your 3-CCD
CameraMan Installation and Operations Manual).
4. Verify that the light on the front of the Camera Control Keypad
illuminates for a few seconds when the battery is first plugged in.
5. Be sure that you have pressed the appropriate CAMERA SELECT
button on the Camera Control Keypad corresponding to the cam-
era you wish to control (see page 6). If only using one camera,
press CAMERA SELECT 1.
Problem:
The Camera Control Keypad will not communicate with the
CameraMan Camera in the "hard-wired" mode.
Solution:
1. Verify that the CameraMan Keypad Cable is connected from the
PVI COM port on the back of the camera to the RJ-11 jack in the
battery compartment of the Camera Control Keypad (see page 3).
2. Verify that the BASE UNIT ADDRESS switch on the back of the
CameraMan camera and the BASE UNIT ADDRESS switch in
the battery compartment of the keypad match (see page 3).
3. Does the light on the front of the keypad come on for a few sec-
onds when the keypad is first plugged in? If not, replace cable
only with a ParkerVision-supplied cable.
4. Be sure that you have pressed the appropriate CAMERA SELECT
button on the Camera Control Keypad corresponding to the cam-
era you wish to control (see page 6). If only using one camera,
press CAMERA SELECT 1.
