Spectra IV Pan

Recommended Posts

I have a Sepectra IV 35X zoom and it won't pan. It'll pan when it starts up but then says configuration failed. It will tilt and zoom but no pan. If you take out the dome drive for an hour or two it'll pan and everything except for the pan and tilt degree line is all combined numbers like 235467 instead of XXX / XXX. Has anybody had this problem before??

I've worked on the Spectra II's and III's, but not the IV's yet, but whenever I have an error like that it is due to a communication error. Maybe the wires are crossed between the Rx+/Rx- and the Tx+/Tx-. If you are using a Coaxitron, then it won't be that issue. It could be that the dip-switches are not set for the correct controls. What kind of controller are you using (Pelco or through a computer)? Make sure the settings are correct for both. Check the manual and make sure both are on Pelco-P or something similar.

 

Beyond that, call Pelco. They are very useful for troubleshooting problems like that over the phone or via email.

 

Good Luck
