Please Read First!
The Warranty Period provided for all SS485P Pan & Tilts manufactured by
Westlake Technical Products and sold by Hitachi Oenshi has expired!
The last production run
of this product was late in 2002. This makes
the newest
of these units at least Ten (10) years old and the first units
almost twice that old.
There are over 2,350 SS485P Pan & Tilts in service some where in the
world. Not much ever breaks or wears out. Sometimes a belt comes
loose or motor contacts need to be cleaned because of lack of use. This
is usally fixed by just running it back and forth to clean the contacts.
With occasional preventative maintenance, a little oil and cleaning
these units should continue to provide their owners reliable service for
many, many more years.
One thing must be considered -Microcontroller Backup Battery Oepletion:
The OS5000 Microcontroller manufactured by Oallas Semiconductor was
used to control the SS485P. This component is a highly Integrated Circuit
( IC ) which is so reliable we have delivered it in
over Ten Thousand
Industrial, Commercial, and Consumer products which are in use all over
the world. The OS5000 Microcontroller's Application Software, Setup
Parameter, and Preset Location Memory are stored inside the OS5000 and
protected by a Lithium Battery which is inside the Microcontroller itself.
The Rated Battery Life by the manufacturer is Ten (10) Years.
As
of this writing, all SS485P Pan & Tilts are older than Ten (10) Years.
To assure you will not loose any Application Software or Setup
Parameters because of a Depleted Battery the 056000 should be replaced.
If you wish to do this yourself, you can download the instructions, the
application software and even purchase the OS5000 on our web site at:
http://www.westlaketechnical.com/SS485P
If you wish to purchase a new OS5000 with the Application Software
already loaded and tested you can also make this purchase on our web
site. We will include instructions on how to replace the Microcontroller.
You can also send the unit to us for this or any required service work...

1. PRECAUTIONS
Improper connections or settings may cause damage to the SS-485P, the
camera or the lens. Please read the instruction manual before power
is
connected to the unit. Check the positions of the internaljumpers, to make sure
they match yoursystem components. Install the lens selectionjumpers, according
to the type of lens being used. Failure to properly install thejumpers, may cause
damage
to the unit, and void the warranty. To avoid failure, never connect or
disconnect any
of the control or camera power cables with the power on.
Manual Axis Movement
The pan and lilt mechanics should not be moved BY HAND. The unit should only be
operated under power.
If an installer needs to move one of the motion channels, the local
manual control lines can be used
on the DB25 connector, ( see Section 7B ), or the serial
control by PC or selected controller can be used
to position the motion channel.

The solder pins inside the 5 pin DIN power connector supplied with the SS-485P are not Iwge
enough for wire sizes greater than #16. For long wire runs, in excess of 200feet,
it
is
recommended to use larger wires, such as #14 or #12, and splice the large wiFe down to a cable
which is attached to the connector.
Power Supply
A separate 24VAC center tapped power supply (transformer) capable of delivering sufficient
currentfor the system is required. Power is input through a 5 pin DIN connector. See
POWER REQUIREMENl'S, for pr0per wire connections. Two power supplies are available
from IDTACHI, depending on system requiliements. The 24APCT-l will power one SS-
485P,
or the 24APCT-5 which will power 5 SS-485P's. For suitability of power supply with
other system components, contact the local HITACID office.

5. PAN & TILT INSTALLATION
Packing Materials
When possible retain the 0figinal packing b0x in which the unit was delivered from
the factory. This container, and the internal foam inserts have @een designed to
protect the unit during shipping.
Mounting
1. The Pan and Tilt may be installed in a horizontal plane either
righ~
side up or
up side down. When the unit is mounted up side down the m0tion controls can
be swapped by changing jumpers inside the control electronics housing. The unit may
also be mounted on a vertical surface for viewing horizontal surfaces such as
table tops, etc. ( with limited movement
).
2. Mechanical: Four
114
-20 Mounting screw holes are evenly spaced on a 3.5" circle.
Refer
to
the mechanical drawing on page 4.

6. CAMERA MOUNTING
The tih table has slots provided to accomm0date the mounting of different camera / lens
combinations in many locations. Slots are provided in the table, and are
1/.1 inch wide to
accommodate a
t.4 -20 screw. It may be easier to mount the camera with the tilt table tilted up or
down which will give more room for your fingers to start the mounting screw.
NOTE: DO NOT A1TEMPT TO MOVE THE TILT TABLE OR PAN AXIS BY
HAND, OR DAMAGE MAY OCCUR.
Use Serial or Switch Contact Motion Control to position the pan and tilt only. The pan and tilt
mechanics should not be moved manually. The unit should only be operated under power.
If an
installer needs to move one
of the motion channels the local manual control lines can be used on
the DB25 connector. See the section on Switch Contact -Manual Motion, ( Section 7B ).
Balance
The balance of the load should be placed such that the load is somewhat balanced in the center of
the travel. Someexperimentation may be required to find the best balance for the lens / camera
combination. Cable weight must be taken into consideration when determining proper balance
of
the load. For proper operation, provide strain relief for the cables, and allow sufficient cable to
permit the full range
of motion required.
Mechanical Height
Some consideration should be made to the overall height of the camera / lens combination. If
absolute height is required to be at a minimum, center the load to achieve the minimum height at
the extremes.
If this results in an unbalanced condition, performance may be affected. The unit
may run at labored speeds during manual movements. When the unit is sent to a preset position,
the motors may run labored but significantly faster.
Maximum Weight
1be actual total weight which the unit will handle varies with where the weight is located.
Generally,
if the center of gravity of the camera and lens is placed at center of the Tilt Table, the
pan and tilt will move large loads up to 11 pounds if the load height is not very tall.
Manual Motion - Performance
1be unit is limited mostly when lifting large loads in the manual motion mode ( not going to a
preset ) from fully down or up. This is caused because the motors are pulse width modulated with
small pulses toause slower motion. When the speed is set to quite slow settings, the motors are
notas capable
of movinglarge loads. If you will be moving a camera / lens load mostly between
a
fuDy down to horizontal position. try mounting the load far back to move the center of gravity
back.
7. CONTROL MODES

A. Serial -Motion Control
1. Serial Mode Selection
To select the
"Serial- Control Mode" make the following connection on the OB25
connector on the back
of the motor electronics chassis.
Pin I ( with respect to
ground)
No connection (open) ="Serial Motion Control"
When this pin is left open ( No Connection ), an internal pull up resistor keeps this pin at
+5VDC with respect to ground. This tells the controller you want
to send commands only
on the serial control channel.
When this pin is pulled low to ground the pan and tilt will only respond
to Switch Contact
Motion Control inputs on the DB25.

b. RS-485 Line Termination
RS-485 is a multi drop, ( daisy chain ), serial communication link which mu t b
terminated at each end with a resistor. The Plln and tilt wired on the e nd of th e able
should be terminated. Under the DB25 connector on th e Motor I E le ctro ni cs hassis
is a five position dip switch. The number one ( I ) position on this dip switch is
provided to switch in and out a line termination resistor. Wh en multiple units are
connected
in a daisy chain setup, it is only necessa ry to terminate the la st unit in th "
chain.
4. Serial Address
Under the DB25 connector on the rear of th e Motor I Electronic chassis is a fi ve
position DIP switch. Positions two through liv > are used to select th e ser ial addr ss
that the unit will answer
to. Up to sixteen uddres,es may be chose n.

b. Serial RS-485 communications
To select serial RS-485 or to change back to RS -232 onununications you must first
see "Service Access"
in Section 9, for directions to access the interior of the unit,
and then continue below.
6. In order to change between RS-232 and RS-485 serial modes
of operation, it is necessary to
change the interface IC. Having opened the motor I electronics chassis and swinging do\ n
the hinged side panel, you can access most
of the options on the proce sor and power
supply p.c. boards. The two IC Sockets which hold the serial interface fe's are located on
the bottom ( underneath the power supply
board) p.c. board. Just behind the "Serial
Address" select dip switch on the side panel you hould see
twalC sockets which are
labeled along the edge of the p.c. board "RS-232 and RS485". One of the IC sockets will
be empty. depending on the current mode of operation. The following describes which chip
must be plugged into it's socket for the desired protocol:

9. SERVICE ACCESS
To access the "MotorI Electronics Chassis" for service or to change Option Jumpers the side
panel
on the motorI control chassis must be opened. This is done be removing the three #4-40
screws around the top edge using a Philips screw driver.
CAUTION - DO NOT REMOVE THE TWO SCREWS WHICH
SECURE THE BOTTOM HINGE! ( or it will be necessary to readjust
the door
alignment)
The side panel is hinged and will swing out and down, moving a little more than 90 degrees,
allowing easy access to the interior switches and circuit boards. Once the three screws a
re
removed, if the side panel will not swing down easily, a flat blade screw driver or pocket knife
inserted into the top edge may be used
to help get it started. The chassis is fitted tight so to
reduce vibration, and because the paint
is rough, it may not want to move. There is nothing
inside that should prevent the side panel from swinging out at the top and downward
s.
10. LENS SETUP & CONTROL
To access lens control and option jumpers see "Service Access" in Section 9, and then
continue below.
The following lens selection, control, and options are accessed inside the pan and tilt "Motor /
Electronics Chassis." The unit as shipped from the factory, has
no lens selection jumpers
installed. It is necessary to install the jumpers according
to the type of lens being used. The
lens type selection jumpers are shipped in a separate plastic bag, the selection jumper posts are
located
just behind the Lens / Camera power connector ( OB - 15 ), inside the unit. For access
to the inside
of the unit, see "Service Access" in Section 9. A chart showing the
location
of the jumpers for various type lenses can be found in Section 14. A board layout

11. END STOP AND MANUAL SPEED SETUP
All Motion Channel "End Stops" and "Manual Speeds" for the Pan, Tilt, Zoom, and Focus
functions are adjustable by the user / installer. There are two ways that you can set these
parameters. You can set the "End Stops" and "Manual Speeds" with the "External
Set~p
Dip Switch" located on the Pan and Tilt head front panel, or by the use of the Senal
Command Protocol. The procedures for these two methods are described below:
External Setup Dip Switch -End Stop & Speed Setup
First in order to activate the "External Setup Dip Switch" the "OPTION 3 - External Setup
Dip Switch Enable Jumper" inside the unit must be moved to the "ON" ( enabled)
position. The "Option Jumpers" are accessed inside the
pan and tilt "Motor / Electronics
Chassis". To access these function jumpers see "Service Access" in Section 9, along with
the chart on page
16 , and then continue below.
You should make sure that the "Set/ Run" Dip Switch
on the front panel is set to the
"Run" position prior to placing the Option 3 Jumper "On". This will prevent you from
accidentally setting an end stop or speed when the External Setup Dip Switch
is Enabled.
Option 3 ON = jumper moved closest to edge of PC Board
Option 3 OFF =jumper moved away from the edge of PC Board
Once the Option 3 jumper
is set to "On", the external dip switches can be set according to
the chart above the switches located on the front outside face of the Pan and Tilt chassis.
SS-485P Front Panel
Manual Motion Speed Adjust
Set / Run DIP Switch
DIP Switches
With the "SetI Run" Dip Switch on the front panel set to the "Run" position, select which
function you wish to set from the chart to the left
of the "Set / Run" Dip Switch. The bottom four
dip switches are used to make this selection. Once you have set the bottom four switche to the
function number you want to set, you are ready to set that function. Move the "Set / Run" Dip
Switch to the "Set" position. (The Second Status LED will light up "Green LED". The Pan &
Tilt will have the "Green LED" segment on when ever you are in the "Setup Mode". )
14

End Stops
If you are setting End Stops, the unit will move the motion channel you are setting to the last
end stop position which was set. This will take only a few seconds. The Second Status LED
will light up the "Red LED" segment for about 10 Second s. With both the Green and Red
LED segments on at the same time, the Second Statu s LED will look Amber or Orange in
color. This indication is to show that the software has pa sse d th e la st end S LOP position to the
preset processor routine and that the unit has begun to move to the prior end stop.
After the motion channel stops completely, you can then move to the new desired end stop
position, or a new end stop position may be selected right away. The Second Status LED will
only remain "Orange" for about 10 Seconds. During this time you can move the motion
channel to any position within it's travel at any manual s peed you have se t. h is much easier
(faster)
to move the motion channel while the LED is "Orange", but you can s till move the
channel after the LED has turned to "Green".
The motion channel can be moved anywhere you choo se while the Second Status LED is
"Orange" but you must wait until it returns [0 a "Green" only LED to move the " Set / Run " dip
Switch back to the "Run" Position which will save the new end stop po s ition.
Note: If you move the "Set / Run" Dip Switch back to the "Run" Po s ition before the
Second Status LED is "Grecn", your new end stop will not be se t and the channel will
move to the previous end stop.
Manual Motion Speeds
If you are setting Manual Motion Speeds, you will be adjusting the trim pot which is marked by a
minus ( - ) and a plus ( + ) symbol. You will need a small flat blade sc rew driver for this purpo se .
Select the setup function with the four dip switches and move the "Set / Run" switch to the "Set"
position. The manual motion speed for the selected channel can be increased by turning the trim
pot c.lockwise toward the plus ( +). You can likewise reduce the manual motion speed for the
selected channel by turning the trim pot counter clockwise toward the minus ( - ). There are
currently six ( 6 ) manual speeds supported .. The pot is a ten (10 ) turn pot with slip clutches at
each end. If the pot is fully rotated counter clockwise at least ten (10 ) turns then you should be at
the bottom end ofyour speed selections. To achieve the new desired speed requires some
experimentation. Rotate the pot about one turn and then move tbe "Set / Run" Switch to the
"Run" position. The new speed will only take effect after the switch is moved to the "Run"
position. Move the motion channel to see if the speed has changed and if it is what you desire.
Repeat this sequence until you obtain the desired speed.
Note: The factory defaults can be set for aU End Stops and Manual Motion Speeds by
setting the four ( 4 ) setup function switches to Fourteen (14) and momentarily moving
the "Set / Run" Switch to the "Set" position and then back to the "Run" Position. If you
get lost, sometimes this is quicker than trying to figure out where you are.
Serial Command Protocol· End Stop & Speed Setup
When using Serial Command Protocol the "OPTION_3 - External Setup Dip Switch Enable
Jumper" inside the unit need not be set. See the Serial- Communications Commands & Protocol
section.

13. SERIAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMANDS & PROTOCOL
PROGRAMMING
Communication protocol: 9600 Baud No Parity 8 Bits 1 Stop
Bit
The following definitions are taken from the "c" source file which runs in the Pan
and Tilt Micro Controller. If you are writing an application to talk to the Pan and
Tilt, this file contains all the command definitions for communicating with the
units.
A host contmller, such
as a PC or Control Panel, sends only two types of bytes to the pan
and tilt. This limited number ofserial data transmissions
has been developed to optimize
system performance over serial control lines. The "Header Byte" may be sent only once
followed
by several "Function Data Bytes" or sent every time along with trailing data.
