6 Connections to Predators with HMA
When the HMA (Hinged Mount Adaptor) is fitted to the Predator, the ‘Predator Composite Cable’ is not used.
Connections between the power supply and Predator use conventional cables as detailed below.

If a thermal camera is fitted in the Predator use a coax to connect the video signal BNC from Predator that is
fitted with HMA and Predator PSU (PCB-000-0157-xx) CON6. This is used for the thermal camera video.
Gain access to connectors in the HMA
•
Ensure that the fixed part of the HMA is securely bolted to the top of the pole.
•
The hinged part of the HMA (Hinged Mount Adapter) is fastened to the fixed part using three M8x25
long hex head bolts. Use a spanner (13mm) to remove the three bolts. Each bolt is fitted with a
split spring lock washer, a plain metal washer (which prevents the split washer from damaging the
fibre washer) and a fibre washer (which prevents the paint on the hinged part from being damaged
unnecessarily.
• Open the hinge taking care that the gasket is not damaged and support the weight of the Predator.
Gently open the HMA until the lanyard is able to take the weight. If the lanyard appears to support the
weight of the Predator, there is no need to continue to support the Predator. The connection circuit
board (PCB-000-0221-01) can now be seen.
Please make sure there is adequate spare cable (20cm) for when the camera is resting on the lanyard, failure
to do this could damage the connector circuit board.
