Engineering Setup
Connect the unit to the CopperHead Base Station and turn on the power to the camera
head. If no LCD screen is attached, then connect the Video Output BNC of the unit to an
external monitor.
When the ENGr button is pressed, the OSD displays the unit's Engineering Menu. There are
four pages of menus. Use the Rotary Encoder to scroll thru the selections. Push the Rotary
Encoder to select one of the menu items, or to change to the next page.
When switching emulations, ensure that rotary encoder is pressed to confirm the selection
before exiting the menu. When switching emulations, it is necessary to calibrate the
joystick each time.
Configuring the Emulation
Because every manufacturer’s RCP is slightly different, you must configure the emulation
correctly so that the universal remote control panel works correctly.
Fig. 2-3: Engineering Menu, Page 1
To configure the Emulation:
1 Select MON to turn on the On Screen Display and then ENGR menu. The first page of
the ENGR menu will appear.
2 Using the rotary control, select SET EMULATION and push down once. The appropriate
emulation type can now be selected by scrolling through the available options and
pressing down on the rotary control to confirm.
3 Once the appropriate emulation type is confirmed, scroll down to SET COMMS and
select by pressing down on the rotary control. This will automatically set the required
I/O parameters.
4 Exit the ENGR menu to confirm all of the settings. It may be necessary to switch the
camera head OFF/ON for communication to be established.
The iris range of the joystick can be adjusted to suit individual users or cameras.
Note:
A camera/camcorder needs to be connected for full access to
Engineering menus.
