Thank you for your help. Unfortunately the pan and tilt doesn’t have any model labels except the serial number. I have since put a positive 12v over one pair and it moved right negative and it moved left. Did the same on the other two pins and got up and down. This is all I need at the moment since I don't need auto panning. My plan is to construct a simple box with two toggle switched for left and right and up and down. To power the camera on the pan and tilt and get picture. I will use a separate cable, the reason being is that I want to change the camera regularly, so it is an advantage to me to make each part of the system interchangeable and simple as possible. Thanks again for every-ones help, with each reply, I learn a great deal.

Thanks for your reply, it was very helpfull, tested the pan and tilt and it is VDC, got it turning and panning on the workbench, once I checked it with a multi-meter, of course. When I originally tried this, I was looking for AC and the common wire and the spike when I connected with a coil (got very strange results, hence the request for help). After testing, it seems that I only need four of the pins on the seven pin plug, two per movement. I will use two reverse pole six pin toggle switches providing possitive and negative voltage across each pair, this will give me up down left right. Should point out that when testing I put 12v dc per pair and got movement, so I was lucky and got away with my earlier experiments, whew, close thing, I just assumed all pan and tilts were 24v AC. I will let you know how I get on. Sould have it built this weekend, once I get the toggle swithes. The computer control sounds interesting, bit of a novice regarding the this, but I am intriqued and I will look into this.

Thank you for your response, I'm afraid I only have a product code its a 12T24D4824. your help is much appreciated.

Hi I'm a newbie to this forum, I think its just what I've been looking for. The reason I was browsing the internet and found this forum, is that I have a Molynx videmech pan and tilt unit. It has two plugs on the front, one is seven pin, the other four pin. I also have a control unit. My question is has anyone got a wiring diagram for the pan and tilt unit! To date I have figured out the common ground wire and tried connecting a 24v on each of the pins on the seven pin plug, in turn. My thinking for this was to great a current to the stepper motors so that I could figure out the correct pin for up down, left right. It didn't work, so thats why I'm asking for help.
