8 SPECIAL CONFIGURATIONS
8.1 INTERFACE WITH SCORPIO HEADS
In the Electronic Box there is one connector that connects the crane with the control of the Scorpio
Head. By doing this the system can perform special features such as Motion Generator or Back Pan.
8.1.1 SET UP CONDITIONS
These functions are available with any regular Scorpio Head
(Classic/Mini/Mini EZ or Micro) that has a SERVO F , SERVO I board
(or a newer version) and a control with the CCU2000 (Handwheels,
Joystick, Pan bar…) with a software version newer than 5.87H. The
CCU2000 controls are easily identified because the control has white
screen touch panel. To identify the SERVO versions of the HEAD it
can be done by connecting the remote head to the control and opening
the MENU
→
Auxiliary
→
Bus connections. There is a list of the
SERVOs connected to the control. If the name of one of the axes is
HEAD SERVO, it will not be possible to set up this function (the boards inside the head needs to be
upgraded). The stabilized heads (Stab, Stab V) can also use this functions only if the Stab mode is
disabled.
Regarding the crane, any crane (S10’/S17’/S23’L/S23’/S30’+7’/S38’ and S45’) can perform this
feature if the electronic on the crane are updated to CCU2000 (there is a white screen touch panel)
and the software version of the crane is newer than 5.80C.
8.1.2 SET UP
To start connecting the Head and the Crane, the control interface
cable (fig. 08.03) can be used to send the communication line from
the control interface connector from the EB to the FIZ Command
connector in the back of the control of the Scorpio Head.
A standard communication cable from Servicevision (6pin XLR) can
be used to extend the link from the control interface connector of the
crane to the Control interface cable.
Once the cables are connected the crane and the head can be
started.
Note: In case the user wants to use the Motion Generator
mode, the ZERO POSITION of the head needs to be set with
the remote head looking to the crane in the horizontal position
(center the camera in the pan axis for better performance).
All the following functions are based on that Zero position.
The only function that does not require the Zero position is
the Back-Pan function.
