Pan/Tilt PRO - Document 341-590 Rev. A  

 

              Page 4 of 10 

Installation Notes (continued): 
 

Mount the Pan/Tilt PRO in a location where the range of motion of the pan/tilt system will not 
be obstructed by any objects.  The Pan/Tilt PRO head should be mounted upright with the 
base level (use a level when installing the pan/tilt head and mount). 

 

When using the Pan/Tilt PRO in conjunction with one of the Vaddio mounts, it is important to 
verify that the surface (wall, table, pipe, etc…) can support the weight of the entire assembly 
(camcorder, Pan/Tilt PRO, mount, power supply and other hardware).  Use hardware that 
will adequately handle the weight of the system and account for additional stress that the 
system may be subjected to because of the movement of the camera.   

 

STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS: 
 

 

Step A:  Canon Camcorders:   

After installing the mount, look at the Pan/Tilt PRO.  The white markers on the pan and tilt hubs (round 
discs protruding from the bottom and side of the head) indicate the home positions.  The Pan/Tilt head is 
shipped with the markers centered on both hubs.  If for some reason the white markers on the hubs don’t 
match up with the markers on the Pan/Tilt head, connect the PowerRite power supply to the Pan/Tilt 
Head.  The system will automatically adjust and find the home positions.  NOTE:  Be sure to disconnect 
power from the head once you have the hubs in their home position. 

   

 

Step B:  Canon Camcorders:   

Carefully set the Pan/Tilt PRO head on the mount.  Place the front of the Pan/Tilt head (side with RJ-45 
and power ports) facing the primary viewing area.  Using the four 1” ¼ - 20 button head machine screws 
(supplied with the Pan/Tilt PRO) secure the mount from the bottom of the flange and tighten using the 
supplied Allen wrench (see Figure 4).  If installing the Pan/Tilt PRO on a custom mount provided 
elsewhere, verify that there is enough room to accommodate complete range of motion of the camera 
when panned and tilted in any direction.
