D. Camera Slaving (optional)
CAUTION:
WHEN SLAVING THE TRAKKABEAM
®
TO FOLLOW A CAMERA, BE AWARE THAT
THE HARD STOP SETTINGS MAY PREVENT THE LAMP FROM FOLLOWING THE
CAMERA THROUGH ITS FULL RANGE OF MOVEMENT.
THE HARD STOP SETTINGS ARE SET TO PREVENT THE LAMP FROM POINTING
AT SENSITIVE AREAS OF THE AIRCRAFT AND POSSIBLY CAUSING SERIOUS
HEAT DAMAGE.
(1) The ability of a Trakkabeam
®
to follow the movement of another system is dependent on the
mounting location of the two systems on the aircraft. For example, a camera may be mounted
under the aircraft to allow 360° of rotation but the Trakkabeam
®
may be mounted on the side of the
aircraft where movement is limited because of operational necessities. Refer to Chapter 4, K for
additional information on the gimbal movement.
NOTE: For optimum slaving performance, the searchlight must be mounted to the
aircraft so that both the elevation and azimuth planes of the searchlight are
parallel to the corresponding elevation and azimuth plane of the camera.
(2) The A800 searchlight system is compatible with the following camera systems:
Wescam
FSI
•
MX15i
•
Star Safire III
•
MX15HDi
•

(3) The system can be configured to automatically detect camera type and baud rate.
