located on the rear panel of the DV-180 Controller.
These switches used in conjunction with the CAMERA SELECT switches and the AUXILIARY 1 switch
allow setting the speed range of the joystick and seesaw manual control functions. For example, it may be
necessary to slow the motion of the pan & tilt head because very smooth control is needed for “on air”
moves. To change the speed range for camera 1, perform the following steps:
Put the SETUP Switch #1(Speed Range bit 1) in the DOWN position, depress the CAMERA SELECT 1
switch and hold it down. Depress and release the AUXILIARY 1 switch while the CAMERA SELECT 1
switch is still depressed. Release the CAMERA SELECT 1 switch. The Speed Range has now been slowed
for camera 1 only. To change the Speed Range of camera 2, repeat the above procedure with the CAMERA
SELECT 2 switch depressed instead of the CAMERA SELECT 1 switch. For the highest speed operation,
load with both switches in the up position. For the slowest speed operation, load with both switches in the
down position.
