Adjusting the backlash compensation
Play in the gears may give rise to backlash when the pan/tilt
head is moved. This adjustment serves to provide
compensation for reducing the amount of this backlash.
(Backlash: For instance, after the pan/tilt head has moved
from right to left and then come to a standstill, there is a
delay in the start of the movement when it moves in the
opposite direction. This happens because of play in the
gears. The same phenomenon also occurs when the head
moves from left to right, up to down or down to up.)
1. Press the MENU button, and turn the menu setting
control (main) to display the P/T SETTING item on the
top line of the LCD panel.
2. Press the OK button. The following item appears on the
LCD panel.
3. Turn the menu setting control (main) to display the
Backlash Supplement item on the top line of the LCD
panel.
4. Turn the menu setting control (L) to select the item to be
set, and turn the menu setting control (R) to set the data.
❈
Use the OFF setting if backlash is not a concern. When
making an adjustment, be absolutely sure to move the
pan/tilt head, and perform actual operations to check
whether the compensation amount is appropriate before
deciding on the proper amount. If this amount is
excessive, the pan/tilt head will start returning in the
opposite direction as soon as it has been made to come
to a standstill.
