Set Up Of The T-POV Robotic Camera Link System For Operation

This section provides a high-level overview of setup of the T-POV Robotic Camera Link
System for operation. The following sections provide additional detail on each aspect of
setup and operation.

It is important that you do an initial setup and test of your T-POV Robotic Camera Link
System for operation as soon as your receive it to confirm proper operation and to provide
training for you and your team prior to an actual production.

It is highly recommended that you do not attempt to power up the system until all
connections are made, in particular that the Fiber Optic Cable has been connected at both
ends. If you need to power up either the T-POV Robotic Camera Link Base Station or Camera
Unit, make sure that the Fiber Connectors are securely capped. This will protect
theseconnectors from damage or dirt and protect you from damaging your eyes.

The order in which you connect the cables makes no difference. Make sure to connect the
Camera Remote Control cable to the Base Station and Remote Control Panel when the Base
Station power is turned off.

Make sure to connect the Camera Remote Control cable to the Camera Unit and Camera
when the Camera power is turned off.

Once you deploy the Fiber Cable, you are now ready to Power Up the system.

You should read the Using Fiber Optics Guide for information on how to manage and
deploy your fiber optics cabling, safety precautions, tips & tricks, and recommendations for
creating complex fiber optic networks. You can find a copy of this document on the
Support portal (see
