System Start Up
Once you have made all the necessary connections and configurations, you are ready to start up the rest of the system.
Tracking Ring Package
1. Power
ON
the CameraMan camera with the
POWER
switch on the Main Docking Station.
2. Set the Tracking Ring Power Pack's power switch, located on the top of the unit, to the
ON
position. The
Power ON
LED on the Power Pack illuminates.
If the
Power ON
LED on the top of the Tracking Ring Power Pack does not illuminate,
then refer to the
Troubleshooting
section of this manual.
3. Verify that the
TRACKING UNIT STATUS
LED on the camera’s display panel illuminates,
indicating the communication link between the camera and the Tracking Ring.
4. Press one of the four
autoTRACK View
buttons on the keypad to activate the autoTRACK
functionality of the Camera System (the camera will not track until one of the autoTRACK
buttons is pressed). Once you are in autoTRACK mode, the
autoTRACK
LED on the
camera’s display panel illuminates.
If the
autoTRACK
LED on the CameraMan’s display panel is blinking, CameraMan is in the
autoTRACK mode, but the link between CameraMan and the Tracking Ring is not active.
To establish this link, move into the CameraMan’s field-of-view (Please see the
autoTRACK
MODE
or
Troubleshooting
sections of this manual for further assistance).
Rechargeable Battery
The Tracking Ring Power Pack comes with a built-in 12-hour Rechargeable Battery. When the
battery is running low, the
Battery LOW
LED on the top of the Tracking Ring Power Pack
illuminates. At this time the Tracking Ring Power Pack should be recharged or an Auxiliary
Battery Pack should be attached to the Tracking Ring Power Pack.
To recharge the battery:
1. Turn
OFF
the Tracking Ring Power Pack.
2. Set the switch on the front of the Battery Charger to
TRACKING POWER PACK
.
3. Plug the Battery Charger into an electrical outlet and connect the Power Pack to the charger.
The Battery Charger takes 2 to 3 hours to recharge the Tracking Ring Power Pack.
The LED on the Battery Charger indicates when the battery is fully-charged. If a battery is very
low, then the LED on the charger flashes slowly. While the battery is charging, the LED on the
charger stays on. When the battery is fully-charged, the LED on the charger flashes faster.
