Notes

This Architecture is incompatible with network control! The DDV3 track sensor plugs into the same i/o port on the ST4/ST4.3 as the network adapter. DDV3 track sensor and network adapter cannot be used concurrently on ST4/ST4.3

If you are interested in controlling a system like this over a network, consider our Dana Dolly belted solution or our upcoming Spectrum Studio (available in October 2025).
