If the camera moves back towards the horizontal position when 
released, the payload is mounted too low—raise the camera cradle.

2.

 Tilt the camera cradle through positive and negative angles of 

travel, checking that the head remains at the angle of tilt it is set 
to, unsupported.

If the camera cradle angle falls or rises, repeat the alignment 
procedure until balance is achieved.

3.

 After adjusting the C of G height, it may be necessary to check 

that the fore and aft balance remains satisfactory. Readjust the 
position of the camera horizontally on the camera cradle as 
required.

4.

 After balancing, exercise the head through both axes to confirm 

that it operates smoothly.

1.

 Connect the lens interface 

cable to the 26-pin, male 
Lens interface connector on 
the FH-145/FHR-145. 

2. 

Connect the power cable  
and the Ethernet cable.

CAUTION! 

Connect the head to the power source using the 

attached power cable only. Ethernet cables must be rated at 
Cat5e with screened RJ45 connectors.

Note: 

Connectors not 
currently in use 
are greyed out.
