Pelco Manual C306M-K (4/05) 15
PAN, SCAN, AND TILT SPEEDS
Pan and scan speeds are adjustable from 3 to 40 degrees per second through the pro-
gramming menu. The tilt speed is one-half of the pan speed.
LENS FUNCTIONS
Lens zoom, focus, and iris functions are operated from the controller. All lens models have
motorized zoom and focus, and direct-drive (no amplifier) auto iris. Some model lenses
have preset-positioning capability.
PRESET FUNCTIONS
The Esprit system is capable of going to 64 preset locations, each with a 20-character label.
The presets are numbered 1-32 and 35-66. Refer to the documentation for your control sys-
tem for programming presets.
If you command the pan and tilt to go to an undefined preset, erratic operation may result.
Presets 33 and 34 are fixed commands, meaning that you cannot program them. Preset 33
is the “flip” command, which pans the system 180 degrees. Preset 34 is the “pan zero” com-
mand, which pans the system to the factory-determined zero reference point.
RANDOM, FRAME, AND AUTO SCANNING
Select preset 97 (30) to start random scanning. Select preset 98 (31) to activate frame
scanning (three seconds of scanning followed by a three-second pause). Select preset 99
(32) to start auto (continuous) scanning. Scan limit stops are controlled by software. Refer
to the
Limit Stops
section to program the scan limit stops.
When the system reaches a scan limit stop, it reverses direction. Select preset 96 (29) to
stop a scan. Any pan and tilt or lens command also will stop a scan.
ZONES
A zone is a programmed pan area with set boundaries and identifying label. The Esprit
system has a maximum of eight zones, each with a 20-character label. Zones can be
programmed to blank video when the camera pans into the zone area. If zone labels are
turned off, the system displays the message, VIDEO BLANK, to indicate the video is
blanked and not failing. (Refer to
Zone Blank
in the
Programming
section for instructions.)
PATTERNS
The Esprit system can do either one full pattern (1.5, 3, or 6 minutes long) or two half pat-
terns (.75, 1.5, or 3 minutes long). This pattern can consist of any standard pan and tilt or
lens command. Presets, flip and turbo are not allowed in a pattern. Zones can be enabled
while running a pattern. Refer to the documentation for your control system to program and
run patterns.
PARK
If the Esprit system does not receive any commands for a specified period of time (refer to
the
Park Time Minutes
section), the system will go to preset 1 and park. If the time specified
is zero, or if preset 1 has not been programmed, the system will not park.
NOTE:
If a preset is set
when the system is at the
upper tilt limit, the preset
label will be overridden by
the label “Tilt Limit.” The
preset labels feature will not
function.
NOTE:
For AMERICAN
DYNAMICS controllers with
only 32 presets, set switch
SW1-5 on the PCB in the
ON position. When SW1-5 is
ON, preset
99 becomes 32
98 becomes 31
97 becomes 30
96 becomes 29
95 becomes 28
93 becomes 26
92 becomes 25
91 becomes 24
90 becomes 23
If the limit stops are turned
off (refer to the
Limit Stops
section), presets 23-26 can
be used as regular presets.
NOTE:
In the operation and
programming instructions,
sometimes a number in
parentheses follows a
preset. This second number
is for 32-preset mode.
