There are several ways to control your camera's movement. The following information explains how to connect and
configure the optional Camera Control Keypad and the SHOT Director.
Camera Control Keypad or Tracking System Keypad
The optional Camera Control Keypad controls the camera's
movement via wireless RF technology up to 60', or hard-wired
connection up to 250'. If you choose to use a Camera Control
Keypad in the hard-wired mode, follow the installation directions
below:
1. Connect one end of the 25' CameraMan
Keypad Cable included
with your camera to the RJ-11 type jack located in the battery
compartment of the keypad.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to the RJ-11 type jack on the
back of the camera, labeled PVI COM.
When the system is powered on, the light on the keypad
illuminates momentarily and you will hear two beeps
indicating that the keypad is ready for operation. The
light located above the PVI COM port indicates
communication activity.

Use only the cable supplied by ParkerVision for the PVI

telephone cords may cause damage.
