If E-flip (see Speeds/Tracking page on page 72) is enabled (checkbox checked), constraints are placed
upon the tilt limits. See Table 8 on page 40 for constraints. To review tilt coordinates, see Coordinates
page on page 29.
Note: The dome prevents any hourglassing behavior by restricting the tilt limit to 90°, when necessary, to
accommodate some pan limits set to less than 180°. To avoid setting tilt limits too tightly, we recommend
that you set the pan limits first, then set the tilt limits.
Pan left limit. Pan left limit is a feature that sets a programmable stop for the camera at the leftmost point
that you want it to pan left. By default, the pan and tilt limits are off. Programming them turns them on.

Pan right limit. Pan right limit is a feature that sets a programmable stop for the camera at the rightmost
point that you want it to pan right. By default, the pan and tilt limits are off. Programming them turns
them on.
Note: The dome prevents any hourglassing behavior by restricting the tilt limit to 90°, when necessary, to

Clear limits. Clear limits is a feature that clears all programmable stops that have been set for
the camera.

Tilt limits set How the limits are used Illustration
Either the top or bottom limit is
set, but not both. The one limit becomes the top limit for
both hemispheres.
Both the top and bottom limits
are set, but one in the positive
hemisphere and one in the
negative hemisphere. Only the top limit is used, and it is used
for both hemispheres.
