Connecting Main Docking Station
Now you can begin connecting your Main Docking
Station to your CameraMan Camera System and
your camera control devices.
Connecting the
CameraMan Cable
The autoTRACK camera connects to the Main
Docking Station using the supplied CameraMan 10’
multi-conductor cable with DB-37 connectors on
both ends.
1.
Verify that the
POWER
switch is turned
OFF
on
the front of the Main Docking Station before
making this connection.
2.
Connect the
DB-37
male connector to the back
of the CameraMan camera and secure the con-
nection using the two connector screws located
on the cable connector. This ensures that the
cable does not become dislodged due to the
motion of the CameraMan camera.
3.
Connect the other end of the CameraMan cable
to the
BASE UNIT
connector on the back of the
Main Docking Station.
Verify that the CameraMan Cable is supported so
that the camera does not drag the cable as it moves.
If the camera drags the cable, then system perfor-
mance may be compromised.
