Connection of the motors
It is possible to connect up to 2 motors per remote head, one for Zoom and one for Focus. Motors with the
same ID can’t work together. When using the external motors be sure to set the lens switch on manual (See
Figure 4). Due to their miniaturized design, these devices do not have the standard power supply
configuration, so dedicated cables and terminator must be used for their connection. Always connect a
terminator at the end of the line (see Figure 3). It is possible to connect only one motor indeed. Once
connected, each motor performs an auto calibration. It is advisable to mount it mechanically first and then
connect the cable, so the auto calibration can properly start.

Selecting Zoom or Focus
The switch on the bottom cover (2 on Table 11), let you select motor operating mode: Zoom or Focus.
Setting the same function on both motors will exclude both of them from the control chain.
