Connecting your Proaim PT-EXPR-02 Explorer Pro Pan Tilt Head to its 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 controller box.
- For power, you can use a 12-volt battery if the connector's #1 negative pin and #4 positive pin are correctly aligned.
- Connect the power cable to the AC adapter.
- Plug the other end of the power cable into the universal adapter.
- Insert the 12-volt AC adapter (4-pin XLR) into the designated port on the controller box.
- If the joystick controls appear reversed, simply disconnect the motor connectors, rotate them 180 degrees, and reconnect.
- Power on the controller box.
- Adjust the pan speed and damping settings to suit your shot requirements.
- Use the joystick to control the pan (left-right) and tilt (up-down) movements.
Additional Tips:
The joystick remote offers precise control over pan and tilt speeds, allowing for a full 360-degree rotation on any axis.
The speed controller fine-tunes the pan and tilt speeds, helping to match your filming needs.
The damping control smooths out movements, preventing abrupt stops for professional-looking results.
You have the flexibility to reverse the pan and tilt directions if needed. Following these steps ensures your Proaim PT-EXPR-02 Explorer Pro Pan Tilt Head is set up for smooth, controlled operation.
