  • AMX AXB-PT15, Introduction 3 AXB-PT15 PosiTrack Camera Controller Lens Control Modes The Servomotor and Motor modes are two Analog Voltage Control methods available on the PosiTrack units. Servomotor Mode This method is generally used in broadcast or videoconference-style lenses. The voltage range used for servomotor style lenses is +2.5 to +7.5 VDC. These lenses can be controlled in two different modes: positional mode and speed mode.  Positional mode is the most common Servomotor mode. When voltage changes, the lens moves and remains still until the voltage changes again. For example, if a lens receives a voltage of +3 VDC, the lens moves t
