Connecting your Proaim PT-EXPR-02 Explorer Pro Pan Tilt Head to the controller box is straightforward. Here's a step-by-step guide:
- Begin by connecting the male end of the provided cable to the female connector on the Pan Tilt Head itself.
- Next, attach the female end of the same cable to the corresponding connector on the controller box.
- For power, ensure a 12-volt battery can operate the head; the connector must align the cable's #1 negative pin and #4 positive pin.
- Attach the power cable to the AC adapter.
- Connect the other end of the power cable to the universal adapter.
- Insert the 12-volt AC adapter (4-pin XLR) into the controller box.
- If the joystick controls appear reversed, disconnect the motor connectors, rotate them 180 degrees, and reconnect.
- Turn the controller box ON.
- Adjust the pan speed to your desired setting and configure the damping.
- Use the joystick to control the pan (left-right) and tilt (up-down) movements.
Additional Tips:
The joystick remote offers extensive pan and tilt speed adjustments, enabling a full 360-degree rotation on any axis. The speed controller lets you customize the pan and tilt speeds to match your shot requirements. Damping control ensures smooth stops, and you can easily reverse the pan and tilt directions as needed.
