Pan-Tilt Antenna Positioner Comparison Points

Pan-Tilt Antenna Positioner Comparison Points

Eliminate signal jitter in strong wind environment

In view of the cross wind interference often faced by field base stations or vehicle-mounted antennas, this product uses the mechanical characteristics of self-locking torque> 80N · m to solve the problem of communication link interruption caused by 2-5 shaking of traditional pan-tilt in gusts above level 8, and ensures that the data link is always locked by RSSI peak..

Solve the limitation of cable wear and winding

For application scenarios that require omnidirectional scanning, the integrated through-hole slip ring technology solves the pain point of the external cable breaking due to repeated bending during reciprocating motion. Compared with traditional equipment with limited rotation angle (such as ± 180 °), this product achieves true omnidirectional coverage without blind spots and extends cable life by more than 3 times..

Simplify the difficulty of integrating complex systems

In view of the protocol mismatch problem faced by system integrators, this product has built-in adaptive baud rate recognition and a variety of standard protocol libraries, which solves the pain point of the need to write additional protocol conversion gateways in the past. Engineers do not need to go deep into the underlying code, can directly control the orientation through the standard instruction set, debugging time is reduced by 70%..

Pan-Tilt Antenna Positioner Instructions For Use

Mechanical installation and balance of center of gravityt

Use 4 M10 stainless steel bolts to fix the base to the horizontal bracket. When installing the antenna load, be sure to adjust the front and rear positions of the antenna so that the overall center of gravity is located on the central axis of rotation of the turntable (deviation needs to be <10mm) to avoid long-term unilateral load overheating of the motor..

Electrical connection and waterproof treatmentt

Connect the power line (red +/black-) to the RS485 signal line (yellow A/green B) as defined in the wiring diagram. After the connection is completed, the aviation plug must be wrapped with the attached waterproof tape in a “three-layer winding method” to prevent rainwater from penetrating into the interface along the cable and causing a short circuit..

Address code and baud rate settingst

Open the DIP DIP switch cover at the bottom. According to the manual comparison table, set the hard address (ID 1-255) and communication baud rate (default 2400bps) of the device. Note: Each Pan Tilt Antenna Positioner on the same RS485 bus must have a unique address code..

Zero calibration and limit settingt

After the first power-on, the “Call Preset 99” command is sent through the control keyboard, and the device will perform a self-test and automatically find the zero position. Then according to the actual environment, through the software set soft limit, to prevent the antenna in the rotation of the collision surrounding obstacles..

FAQ

In the static (holding position) state, relying on the worm gear self-locking structure can withstand 12 hurricanes (wind speed of about 35 m/s); In the dynamic (rotating) state, it is recommended to run below level 8 wind (wind speed of about 20 m/s) to ensure positioning accuracy and motor life.

The standard version is RS485 interface. We provide an optional “network through version”. The internal slip ring contains 100M Ethernet channels, which supports transparent transmission of network signals. However, it is still recommended to control the motion of the PTZ itself through RS485 or RS422, or to install a network coding board to realize IP control.

The equipment comes standard with a built-in temperature control heating component. When the internal temperature of the fuselage is lower than -10°C, the heater will automatically start; when the temperature rises to +10°C, the heater will automatically turn off. Therefore, it can be used directly in an environment of -40°C without additional configuration.

50kg refers to the vertical load with the center of gravity located within 50mm of the center of the turntable. If the antenna shape is special or the center of gravity is offset, the eccentric moment needs to be calculated. In principle, the torque generated by the load should not exceed 45N · m, otherwise it will affect the running speed of the pitch shaft.

There is a “factory reset” jumper on the motherboard of the device. When the jumper is short-circuited and powered on for 5 seconds in the power-off state, the device will return to the default settings, which is convenient for reconfiguration.

The product adopts maintenance-free grease lubrication design, and has been filled with low-temperature aviation grease when leaving the factory. It is recommended to conduct a visual inspection every 12 months to clean up the surface dust and check the bolt tightening. Usually, there is no need to disassemble the machine to supplement the lubricating oil within 3 years.
