2.0 DESCRIPTION
The PT480 Legacy® Ser ies pan/tilt units are designed for medium-duty, indoor/
outdoor use.
Only the EH4700L Legacy® Series environmental enclosures can be mounted on
the pan/tilt units. P elco’s RediLINK™ connector makes it simple and quic k for y ou to
install an enclosure. The weight of the enclosure with camera and lens must not
exceed 20 pounds (9.07 kg).
You can easily remove the clamshell covers from the sides of the pan/tilt units to
access all internal parts without having to remove the camera enclosure. This makes
it easy to service the units and to adjust the pan and tilt limit stops.
2.1 MODELS
The PT480 Series consists of the following models:
PT480PMedium-duty, indoor/outdoor pan/tilt, 120 VAC.
PT480P/PPPT480P with preset positioning capabilities.
PT480-SLPT480P with 360° pan rotation.
PT480SL/PPPT480SL with preset positioning capabilities.
PT480-24PMedium-duty, indoor/outdoor pan/tilt, 24 VAC.
PT480-24P/PPPT480-24P with preset positioning capabilities.
PT480-24SLPT480-24P with 360° pan rotation.
PT480-24SL/PPPT480-24SL with preset positioning capabilities.
3.0 MAINTENANCE
If you need to remove the enclosure, protect the RediLINK™ connector area against
moisture, dust, dirt, etc. Failure to do so could result in a bad connection. Also,
damage to the pan and tilt unit or enclosure could occur when power is turned on.
The following servicing should be done every six months with average use.
1.Remove the PT480’s outer casing.
a.Remove the Phillips screw on each side of the pan and tilt unit.
b.Place your hands under the cover halves. Exert a strong, upward force
to release the covers from their internal latching devices.
c.Pull the cover halves away from the pan and tilt unit. Set the covers down
or hang them by the eyelets inside the covers. (The wire and hook on
which to hang the covers is not provided.)
2.Inspect the gaskets around the cover, tilt shaft, and spindle for damage.
3.Refer to Figure 1. It shows the par ts locations of the tilt assembly. Look for
similar orientations of parts when adjusting the pan assembly.
4.Check the backlash adjustment.
Backlash is the slack or binding in a pan and tilt base mount. Determine backlash by lifting the maintenance assembly, grasping the base, and wiggling it.
There should not be any play or binding between the gear (A) and worm drive
(B). Play or binding indicates a backlash problem.
•One backlash problem involves a worm and worm gear connection loose
enough to cause slipping or tight enough to cause binding.
•The second involves a too-loose or too-tight chain, usually causing symp-
toms similar to the worm and worm gear problem–slipping or binding.
4Pelco Manual C343SM (12/98)
a.Verify that the worm drive (B) is fully seated in the worm gear (A). If it is not:
(1) Locate the worm-driven gear for either the pan or the tilt motor link-
age. Loosen the three hex screws (F) holding the worm in place,
but leave enough thread in place to hold the assembly on the mount.
(2) Using your thumbs, gently move the worm forward or pull the as-
sembly back from the worm gear to either tighten or loosen the gear
spacing to the worm gear. Move the base of the pan and tilt to chec k
the adjustment.
(3) If you get movement in the base, press a finger down in the middle
of the worm assembly. If you get no movement in the base, use
your thumb and forefinger to pull the worm assembly back until you
get movement.
(4) When the spacing is correct, tighten the hex screws. Start with the
middle screw to ensure proper spacing.
(5) Remove the screw (C) in the gear train nut (D).
(6) Tighten the gear train nut to remove any play.
(7) Line up the hole in the gear train nut with the nearest hole in the
gear train bracket (E).
(8) Replace the screw.
b.Refer to Figure 1. Adjust chain tension, if needed:
(1) Locate the pan or tilt motor on the assembly . Loosen the he x screws
(H) that hold the motor to its mounting bracket. Depending on which
motor assembly you are adjusting, there will be either three (pan) or
four (tilt). (Only two screws are shown in Figure 1.)
(2) Using a screwdriver, pry the motor down (at G) to tighten for the
correct chain tension. (You should not be able to freely move the
motor with your finger, nor should it be so tight that it will not move
at all as this usually leads to binding.)
(3) Tighten the hex screws.
c.Using a controller, you should now be able to move the PT480 without
looseness or binding. If you have any problems, contact Pelco’s Technical Support Department.
5.Lubricate the chains. Use a Teflon chain lubricant, such as TriFlon™.
6.Replace the covers.
a.Grasp one cover half in each hand and position the covers on each side
of the pan and tilt unit.
b.Bring the two cover halves together, aligning the two pins in one cover
half with the mating holes in the other cover half.
c.When the cover halves are together, press downward to f orce the cov ers
into their latches.
d.Replace the screws in the covers.
