Product Description

The new videotronic variable high speed pan/tilt motor is a breakthrough compared to

conventional pan/ tilt motors available to date. It combines elegant design with excellent
and outstanding performance. Among individual and customised programs and control
functions you have very accurate panorama steering (pre-set tour through up to 100
different pre-programmed positions) with variable speed adjustment of up to 90°/sec.
during pre-set call with a backlash of < 0.1°. The motor is using high precision stepper
motors and self-locking worm gears, resistant to wear. Due to self-lubricating gears the
unit is suitable for continuous operation. Regular service and/ or maintenance are not
necessary.

The integrated RS-232 serial interface allows the unit to be adapted to any existing or
future telemetry system. The integrated RS-485 control circuit board makes the motor
fully compatible with the Videotronic BUSTRONIC RS-485 network. In combination
with the Videotronic HQ System Camera (colour, mono or colour/mono) the variable
speed is automatically controlled in relation to the zoom position (wide/ tele). This
package embodies the most elegant and sophisticated PTZ camera unit available on
the market.

Mounting and Connecting the Camera Station

Camera Station

System Control with Video Matrix

Control of the entire system is done over the RS-485 interface of the KB-485 keyboard
using a standard twisted pair telephone cable (shielded). To allow selection of specific
camera stations within the system, all devices in the RS-485 BUS have to have an
individual address.

Mounting the Camera Station

Attention When installing the camera station please make sure to follow the order

mentioned below.

1. Install the pan/tilt motor to a Videotronic WA-40BSN wall bracket using the

attached installation material (M6 x 20 hex / M6 nut/ M6 washer).

2. Fix the service junction box incl. power supply unit as near to the motor as

possible. The pre-wired connections of the motor have a length of 2,5 metres and
have to be connected to the service junction box after installation.

3. Fix the VI “System Camera” unit to the bracket of the motor using the attached

screws. The camera can also be mounted upside down, depending on the
application.

4. When connecting the system cable, see correct polarity of the cable (PIN 1 =

transparent). Further details are mentioned in the operating instructions of the
system camera. After having installed the system camera, please fix the lateral
covers to the bracket of the motor using 2 screws (M3 x 8).

Connection Cable Type I and II (to pan/tilt motor))

First of all you have to establish connection between motor and service junction box.
Please make sure all connections are done according to the instructions. Wrong
connections might destroy the complete unit. Please run all cables through the
designated PG bolt connectors of the weatherproof junction box and fix the connectors
tightly to avoid damage caused by humidity or leakage.

Cable Type I - Operating Voltage and Interfaces

blue GND (motors)
white + 40 V DC (motor voltage)
rosé linelock synchronisation
grey GND (camera)
brown + 12 V DC (operating voltage)
yellow RS-485 (B) or RS-232 (TxD)
green RS-485 (A) or RS-232 (RxD)

Cable Type II - Video Outputs and Current Loop

black current loop or RS-232 (CTS)
red current loop or RS-232 (RTS)
white video signal (F)BAS or Y (Y/C)
black GND (video signal)
transparent C signal (only during Y/C operation)
black GND (only during Y/C operation)

Connecting the Video Signal (F)BAS, Twisted Pair, Y/C Operation

If the pan/tilt motor is being used with a colour camera, the video signal can be
transmitted via standard coaxial cable (FBAS), S-VHS cable (Y/C operation) or twisted
pair cable. If you are using a b/w camera, only coaxial and twisted pair connections are
possible.

For service purposes, the video signal can be tested on a service monitor using the test
socket (video test) on the circuit board. This option allows easy adjustment of all camera
stations directly on site.

MOUNTING AND CONNECTING

(F)BAS Operation

For standard transmission over coaxial cable connect the cable to the terminal block
„Video Out“ (FBAS/GND) inside the service junction box. The shield of the coaxial cable
has to be fixed with the strain relief clamp.

Set the FBAS / Y jumpers as shown in the drawing!

Y/C - Operation

With a separated transmission of brightness and colour information (Y/C), the quality of
the signal can be considerably improved. The shields of the corresponding cable have
to be fixed with the strain relief clamp..

Set the FBAS / Y jumpers as shown in the drawing!
