PAN/TILT HEAD connector on the
controller AW-RP605A, or CONTROL
OUT TO PAN/TILT connector on the
controller AW-RP400.
Use a 10BASE-T straight cable (UTP
category 5) for the connecting cable.

ODepending on the controller to be used,
it may be necessary to change the
switch positions. For details on how to
do this, refer to the section on “Controller
selection switch settings” under
“Installation” (page 10).OFor your safety, connect to an Ethernet
network which does not exceed the
voltage limit of the Ethernet connector.
7Y OUT connector
This is for camera video signal output.
Connect this to the Y IN connector on
the controller or to a monitor, etc.
Use a coaxial cable (BELDEN 8281) for
the connecting cable.
8Pr/SDI OUT connector
This is for camera video signal output.
Connect this to the Pr IN connector on
the controller or to a monitor, etc.
SDI signals can be output when an SDI
card (AW-PB504N, etc.) is installed in
the convertible camera for use.
Use a coaxial cable (BELDEN 8281) for
the connecting cable.

OTo switch from Pr to SDI or vice versa, it
is necessary to change the switch
positions. For details on how to do this,
refer to the section on “Transmission
signal selection setting” under
“Installation” (page 11).

$Connecting the AC adapter for use with the pan/tilt head
Connect the pan/tilt head with the AW-PS300A AC adapter designed for use with the
pan/tilt head.
Standard bare end length 11 mm
It is recommended that the tip be soldered.
AC adapter for use with the
pan/tilt head: AW-PS300A
>DC 12V IN terminal board 
Connect this to the DC 15V OUT
connector on the AC adapter 
(AW-PS300A). (The voltage output from
the AC adapter is set to 15V: this takes
into consideration the voltage drops due
to the possible extension of the DC
cable between the pan/tilt head and AC
adapter.)
Make sure that the positive +and
negative -ends of the wires are
connected to the same signs on the
connector.
Use a cable with a nominal cross
section of 1.25 mm
2or more that meets
the UL specifications for the connection.
The maximum allowable cable length is
98.4 ft. (30 meters).
Applicable (usable) wire
UL Type SPT-2  2!16 AWG or
UL Type NISPT-2  2!16 AWG
?LAMP CONTROL terminal board
Connect this only when the power of a
halogen lamp is to be supplied from the
AC adapter (AW-PS300A).
This connector is connected to LAMPCONTROL on the AC adapter for the
pan/tilt head.
The symbols C and S on the wires must
match the same symbols on the
connector.
Use a cable with a nominal cross
section of 0.3 mm
2or more that meets
the UL specifications for the connection.
The maximum allowable cable length is
98.4 ft. (30 meters).
@OP terminal board
Connect this only when the OP SW
CONTROL OUT connector on the AC
adapter (AW-PS300A) is to be used.

CONTROL IN connector on the AC
adapter (AW-PS300A).
Use a cable with a nominal cross
section of 0.3 mm
2or more that meets
the UL specifications for the connection.
The maximum allowable cable length is
98.4 ft. (30 meters).
