INTRODUCTION  
This document describes the operations of the DPT 115 Digital Pan and Tilt head which is  
designed for remote, long distance control requirements. This unit also provides presets for  
applications needing camera and lens pre-programmed pan, tilt, zoom, and focus settings.  
Applications such as teleconferencing, distance learning, tele-medicine and theater  
instrumentation are all ideally suited for a DPT 115 installation. The DPT 115 is a lightweight  
pan & tilt head designed to carry a variety of load configurations. The digital design of the  
DPT 115 allows flexibility in lens selection and the adaptability necessary for special  
requirements. Teleconferencing and CCTV lenses may all be easily interfaced to the versatile  
DPT 115. Presets are available on the DPT 115 for pan, tilt, zoom and focus. The resolution of  
the presets is 12 bits giving an angular resolution of 0.1 degree. Setup switches located at the  
base of the unit make special functions and configuration changes easily implemented. A  
family of digital controllers which may control from 1 to 5 DPT 115 Pan & Tilt Heads is  
available. The Model 80, Model 88 and Model 180 family of digital controllers was  
specifically designed to get the most from a DPT 115.

OPERATION  
This section describes the operation of the DPT 115 and related system components. The DPT  
115 receives serial data commands from one of two sources in all applications, a hardware  
controller or a computer system. The pan and tilt unit will accept RS-232, RS-422 or both.  
Functions of the pan and tilt include manual camera positioning, manual zoom and focus control,  
and presets. Presets are stored pan, tilt, zoom, and focus positions that the DPT 115 will return to  
automatically when recalled. The preset data is stored within the pan and tilt head. This data is  
stored and recalled from the controller or computer system.  
3.1  
CONTROLLER  
A controller is a device designed exclusively to provide ASCII serial commands to the pan and  
tilt. These units generally have a joystick for up, down, left, and right direction commands. There  
will also be some form of seesaw or switch controls for zoom and focus. Switches will also be  
provided for preset control. The controller will transmit commands in RS-232 or RS-422  
formats.  
3.1.1 RS-422  
RS-422 format is a balanced four wire interface. The signals are transmit plus, transmit minus,  
receive plus, and receive minus. This interface is typically 26 AWG wire with a distance  
limitation of 2000 feet.  
3.1.2 RS-232  
RS-232 format is a three wire single ended interface. The signals are transmit receive, and  
ground. This interface is typically 20-24 AWG wire with a distance limitation of 100-200 feet.  
3.2  
COMPUTER  
A computer can also be used to provide ASCII serial commands to the pan and tilt. Software  
may be written to output the serial command over the serial port to remotely control the pan and  
tilt. A computer program is available from the manufacturer that will allow a user to operate the  
pan and tilt via the serial port of their personal computer. To obtain a copy of this program call  
the manufacturer at the technical support center.  
3.3  
SYSTEM TEST  
3.3.1 Power “ON” Test  
Apply power to the pan and tilt electronics by activating the slide switch on the base of the pan  
and tilt. The power green power LED should illuminate indicating the unit has DC power. The  
red LED will flash once during power up.

5.1.2 Communications Interface  
Control of the pan and tilt is accomplished by sending packets of ASCII characters to the head.  
The standard communications protocol is 9600 baud, eight data bits, one stop bit , and no parity.  
These commands tell the head and lens which direction and at what rate to move. Preset related  
commands are also passed over the communication link between the head and the controller. In  
most cases the communications link is either RS-422 or RS-232. The micro-processor in the pan  
and tilt head will automatically detect the communication type being received, and select that  
communication interface type to transmit data back to the controller. The pan and tilt also has the  
provision to use both type interfaces concurrently for special purpose application  
The RS-422 communications interface is also used to pass camera control commands to the  
camera in the camera control mode (LDCC) for JVC cameras. In this mode the controller sends  
the camera commands to the head in RS-422 format on the four wire cable. The commands are  
received in RS-422 and converted to TTL levels by electronics in the head. These commands are  
the sent out the RS-232 connector via the pan and tilt LDCC cable (P/N ACA96037900) to the  
camera. These camera control commands enter the camera on the six pin mini-DIN “REMOTE”  
connector on the rear panel of the camera  
5.1.3 RS-422 Connector  
The connector labeled “RS422” on the connector plate is a six position, four conductor modular  
jack. This connector provides differential 0 to +5 VDC voltage signals to and from the digital  
pan and tilt head, this is the most common interface from the controller to the heads. Shown  
below is the pin-out for the RS-422 connector. The pin assignment for this connector follows:

INSTALLATION  
6.1  
TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT NEEDED  
Screwdriver and Mounting Screws: The only tool needed to install the DPT 115 is a  
screwdriver for securing the pan & tilt base to its mount.  
#2 Phillips Screwdriver: To be used if access into the Electronics module is required.  
Customer furnished video cable from pan & tilt head to the user monitor.  
6.2  
STANDARD INSTALLATION  
To get optimum performance from any pan and tilt it is important to have the weight of the  
camera and lens balanced. This balance assures the pan and tilt will go in the up and down  
directions at the same speed. Returning to presets accurately is also achieved when the load on  
the pan and tilt is balanced.  
To balance the load, determine the balance point of the camera and lens assembly. Mark this  
point on the camera/lens with a small piece of tape. Position the camera and lens on the pan and  
tilt mounting plate as shown with the center point of the load positioned over the center point of  
the mounting plate. Note that in most cases the camera is mounted as far to the rear of the pan  
and tilt as possible. In some cases it may not be possible to get the balance and still have the  
camera mounting screw on the mounting plate. For these situations see the following sections for  
installing and balancing the camera using the teleconferencing lens adapter bracket.

6.6 INVERTED INSTALLATION  
The pan and tilt unit may be inverted or hung in certain applications. The teleconferencing lens  
adapter bracket is required to provide the necessary clearance between the lens and the side of  
the pan and tilt. If the unit is hung the pan left, pan right, tilt up, and tilt down functions will be  
backwards for that particular camera station. This condition can be corrected by reversing the  
manual controls to the pan and tilt for this particular camera. This operation is done at the  
controller. For detailed instructions refer to the Pan/Tilt Controller Manual.

6.9.3 Attach Interface Cable to Pan and Tilt.  
The interface between the controller or computer and the pan and tilt head is accomplished using  
a RS-422 interface cable. The pan and tilt head will automatically be configured for either  
voltage interface based on which connector and cable that it is receiving data from.  
6.9.4 RS-422 Cable Installation.  
This interface is the normal connection to the digital controllers. Figure 3-2 illustrates a typical  
RS-422 interface cable. Each camera station in the system must be connected to the controller  
via a RS-422 cable. Connect one end of RS-422 to the connector on the rear of the controller or  
computer interface. Connect the other end of the cable to the connector on the pan and tilt head  
labeled “RS422”. Note: pins 1 and 6 are not used.

Problem: No pan/tilt or lens functions.  
Verify proper power is supplied to head.  
Verify data is being sent to head.  
7.2  
LENS CONTROL  
Problem: No zoom or focus.  
Verify lens control cable is plugged in pan and tilt head.  
Verify lens control cable is plugged into correct Hirose cable on lens. Verify the gender of the  
connectors. It is possible to mix these up.  
Problem: Zoom position returns to previous position when the zoom seesaw is released.  
Check set-up switch settings, switch 7 should be down for teleconferencing lens.  
7.3  
LDCC  
Problem: No RCU functions.  
Verify the camera is in the “REMOTE” mode. See the camera’s operation manual.  
Verify RCU adapter cable is attached to rear panel of controller and RM-LP55.  
Verify LDCC cable (P/N: ACA96052200) is attached to “REMOTE” connector on the rear panel of the  
camera. Inspect the rubber boot on the six-pin mini-DIN connector; insure that boot did not slide down  
barrel of connector preventing a good connection. Verify cable end with 9 pin Dsub is connected to  
RS232 connector on base of pan and tilt.  
Verify “AUX2” switch is depressed.  
Verify configuration of 4 conductor RS-422 interface cable to pan and tilt head. See cable drawing  
section.
