FEATURES
• The Hybrid Control Panel AW-RP501 controls the
Pan/tilt Head (AW-PH300) and Color Video Camera
(WV-E550 or AW-E560). With three coaxial cables (5C-
2V) and a single 10BASE-T straight cable (UTP catego-
ry 5), this panel performs various kinds of control on the
camera and pan/tilt head, and sends and receives
camera video signals and genlock signals.
• The maximum distance from this control panel to the
camera and pan/tilt head is 500 meters.
• Head pan/tilt and lens zoom/focus can be controlled at
varying speeds with the servo control, and can be pre-
set at up to 10 points.
• With the auxiliary control input connector (AUX CON-
TROL IN), pan/tilt, zoom, focus, and iris operations can
be externally controlled.

-3-
• Use only with AC Adaptor, Model AW-PS301.
• Handle the control panel with care.

opposite direction if the TILT REVERSE Switch %4 is in
the REV position.
With TILT REVERSE Switch %4 in the REV position, the
operating directions shown on the panel are opposite
to the indications on the panel. In this case, paste the
supplied seal on the panel.
%5 Pan Reverse Switch [PAN REVERSE, NOR/REV]
Changes the pan direction controlled by PAN/TILT
Lever #8. The pan/tilt head turns leftward when
PAN/TILT Lever #8 is moved toward LEFT, or rightward
if it moved toward RIGHT. The rotary head turns in the
opposite direction if the PAN REVERSE Switch %5 is in
the REV position, provided that PAN REVERSE Switch
%5 is in the NOR position. When PAN REVERSE Switch
%55 is set to the REV position, the pan/tilt head turns in
the opposite directions.
With PAN REVERSE Switch %5 in the REV position, the
operating directions shown on the panel are opposite
to the indications on the panel. In this case, paste the
supplied seal on the panel.
Note: TILT REVERSE Switch %4 and PAN REVERSE
Switch %5 may be used to reverse the operating
direction of the pan/tilt head, but be sure to set the
operating direction of the pan/tilt head with its
mounting direction selection switch during its
installation depending on whether the pan/tilt head
is mounted on the floor or is suspended. Unless
the mounting direction selection switch on the

-17-
pan/tilt head is properly set, the pan/tilt head will
pan or tilt in the opposite direction and the pan/tilt
head operation limiters will not be properly stored
in the memory. For details on the setting of this
switch, refer to INSTALLATION OF PAN/TILT HEAD
at page 18 or the Operating Instructions for the
Pan/tilt Head.

-18-
• Install the pan/tilt head after carefully reading the
Operating Instructions for Pan/tilt Head.
• Have four hex bolts (M6 x 4) ready for mounting the
pan/title head. Select bolts of a length appropriate to
the material and structure of the mounting base and the
overall weight applied to it. Fasten the bolts securely
with plain washers, spring washers, and hex nuts. If
the bolts are not securely tightened, the pan/tilt head
might fall to cause injuries or accidents. In case of sus-
pending the pan/tilt head, locally purchase a wire rod
strong enough to hold the pan/tilt head, camera, and
lenses, pass it through the wire hole opened in a firm
board, such as of the ceiling, for example, and fasten it
securely.
• The switches on the pan/tilt head have been preset
before shipment from the factory on the assumption
that the pan/tilt head would be suspended from the
ceiling. If the pan/tilt head is mounted on a board, for
example, be sure to shift the mounting direction switch-
es on the pan/tilt head. Unless this is done, pan/tilt
directions will be reversed and pan/head operation lim-
iter data cannot be properly stored in the memory. For
details on shifting these switches, refer to the
Operating Instructions for Pan/tilt Head.
