1.0 Scope

This manual contains installation and operational information for the Telemetrics
Serial Receiver Model CP-RMR-S, Part No. 92 50939 000. The unit is a pan/tilt
and lens controller that can be used with up to four cameras.

2.0 Introduction

The CP-RMR-S is a serially addressable pan/tilt and lens controller. It receives
RS-232 or RS-422 input commands from either a control panel or computer.
The output signals are used to control pan, tilt, zoom and focus servos for up to
four robotic camera control units and cameras. These functions can operate in
proportional mode or in preset mode. The unit incorporates external DC power
and control signals for the pan/tilt onto one cable. Optional output functions such
as Iris Control and Trolley Control are also available.

4.0 Control Commands

Control is accomplished by sending commands consisting of ASCII characters
terminated by an ASCII carriage return (<CR>, hex 0D). In most cases, several
commands may be sent together on the same line before sending the <CR>.
However, in the case of the recall preset command, other commands may
precede it but any commands following it on the same line are ignored. A
command line will not be executed until the <CR> is received. ASCII backspace
(<BS>, hex 08) can be used to correct errors in the command line. After the
command line has been executed, a <CR> will be sent back to the host to
acknowledge completion.

Communication rate is 9600 BAUD. Protocol is 8 data bits, one stop bit, and no
parity.

5.0 Installation and Hook-up

The Serial Receiver is designed to mount directly into a 19-inch rack
configuration. The front of the unit has an AC power switch and a Ready light.
The light will illuminate when the power switch is turned to the on position and
the unit boots up. See Figure 6 for a typical system hook-up diagram.

sub connector on the rear of the unit. The configuration of the power supply
(single, dual, triple or quad) depends on how many pan/tilt heads are being
controlled. The other end of interconnect cable connects to the external power
supply.
