$Installing the pan/tilt head
When installing the pan/tilt head, follow the instructions below carefully.
In order to prevent accidents resulting when the product becomes dislodged or falls down, be absolutely sure to proceed as
instructed. Do not install the pan/tilt head on its side since its prescribed operation and performance cannot be ensured.
≥After the pan/tilt head has been installed, mount the camera on it.
≥When installing the pan/tilt head, use the four mounting holes to secure the pan/tilt head firmly.
≥Use the M6 hexagon head bolts (including one short bolt) for installation.
≥Use hexagon head bolts which are longer than the thickness (t) of the mounted member + 25 mm.
≥As shown in the figure, use flat washers, spring washers and hexagon nuts for the hexagon head bolts.
≥Use a wrench of the appropriate size to tighten up the hexagon head bolts. 
≥When installing the pan/tilt head on the ceiling, attach the wire together with the bolts, and then anchor them securely to a
rigid part of the ceiling.
≥Use a wire which is strong enough to bear the weight of the entire pan/tilt head (pan/tilt head, camera and lens cable).
≥Install the pan/tilt head in such a way that the equipment and cable attached to it will not make contact with any surrounding
objects when the head is swiveled.
❈When installing the pan/tilt head, do not forcibly turn the rotary head or rotary arm manually.
Doing so may result in malfunctioning.

off, but if the internal battery has reached the end of its service life, the data will be lost when the power is turned off.
Replace a battery that has lost its charge with a new one. (Battery used: CR2032 manganese dioxide-lithium battery)
$How to remove the battery
1Remove the four screws, and remove the pedestal connector
panel.
2Push the battery in the direction indicated by the arrow in the
figure, and slide it out.
3With the battery slid out, raise it from underneath the part with the
arrow.
4After disengaging the part with the arrow from the battery holder,
pull the battery out toward yourself.
$How to install the battery
1Make the “+” side of the new battery to the front side, and insert
its end into the battery holder from the direction of the arrow.
2Push the battery into the holder while pushing the battery in the
direction of the arrow.
3Attach the pedestal connector panel using the four screws.
$Replacing the motor
Replace the motor when it ceases to operate properly.
For details on the motor replacement, consult your dealer.
$Replacing the belt

convertible cameras mounted on the pan/tilt heads can be
controlled at the same time.
≥By installing an additional controller, two of the five units
in the pan/tilt head system can be controlled at the same
time.
≥Up to ten tracing memories can be accommodated.
≥Up to 50 preset memories can be set.
≥The connection distance between the controller and
pan/tilt head system can be extended up to a maximum of
