16.1 Adjustments and Functions
• Direction:
Sets the direction in which the pan and tilt axis will go.
The pan and tilt direction can also be opposite to the joystick direction.
• Speed
Sets the speed of the pan and tilt axis.
NOTE
The real speed of the pan and tilt axis can be much higher than the speed
of the joystick.
NOTE
With the TRINITY you can only access the Tilt speed.
• Delay
Sets the acceleration and the deceleration of the pan and tilt axis.
Or how fast the pan and tilt axis will reach the adjusted speed when the
movements starts and how soft the movement will stop.
NOTE
A low value will ensure that the head will stop right away, when the joystick
movement stops.
A higher value will add a smooth movement after the joystick movement had
stoped. Higher values will make operating the MAXIMA / TRINITY more and
more indirect.
• Deadband
Sets the starting point of the Joystick. This value controls when the Joystick will
react after you touched it.
The lower the value, the more direct the joystick will react.
The higher the value, the slower the joystick will react.
NOTE
If you want to do a running shot with a lot of body movement, you should set the
Deadband to a value higher than 5.
This ensures that, if you touch the Joystick accidentally that there will be no
unwanted movement in the head.
• Ramp
Sets how much ramp will be on the joystick movement.
This value allows you to set a ramp, or how direct the joystick will react.
A low value will make the joystick very direct, while a higher value will add a soft
ramp to the joystick movement.
