26 Pelco Manual C586M (9/99)
SEQUENCE - Allows you to view an individual camera or run a sequence. An alarm or
activity detection will override what you are observing. When the alarm or activity
detection goes away, the screen will return to the camera or sequence you were
viewing.
TRACK MAIN - The spot monitor will follow the camera switching that occurs on the
main monitor. This feature is used only when a KBD4000V keyboard is connected to
the multiplexer for controlling moveable cameras. This mode provides an easy method
of simplifying P/T/Z control in single-monitor applications. The operator does not have
to switch to SPOT to gain P/T/Z control and there is no separate control of the spot
monitor when in this mode. However, to do presets and patterns, switch to SPOT.
Aux Monitor Display (Duplex Multiplexer Only)
Select ALARMS, ACTIVITY, or ALARMS OR ACTIVITY if you want the auxiliary
monitor to show cameras with alarms or activity detection. If you are using the
auxiliary monitor to sequence all cameras and you do not want alarms or activity
detection to override the sequence, select NONE.
BLANK - This means the screen will remain blank unless there is an alarm or activity
detection.
SEQUENCE - This means the monitor will sequence all cameras unless there is an
alarm or activity detection.
CAM 1 through CAM 16 - This means the monitor will display the selected camera
unless there is an alarm or activity detection.
The COLOR & B/W setting allows the multiplexer to adapt to the combination of both
color and monochrome video signals. The switching speed of the multiplexer is not as
fast when it has to change formats between monochrome and color cameras. For
duplex monochrome models, you will not receive color from a color camera except
on the SPOT or AUX monitor displays. For simplex monochrome models, you will
not receive color from a color camera except when the multiplexer is in RECORD
mode and you are viewing the MAIN or SPOT monitor.
The RESERVED setting can improve performance when using cameras with
non-standard sync or poor video quality.
Unit ID
This is the address of the multiplexer. If your system has more than one multiplexer,
each multiplexer must have its own address. This must be set at the multiplexer, not at
the keyboard.
Comm. Type
In the polled communication mode (switch 4 OFF), one multiplexer (any one) must
be the master. Only one multiplexer can be the master. All other multiplexers must be
slaves. The master multiplexer communicates with the slave multiplexers.
In the non-polled communication mode (switch 4 ON), all multiplexers must be
slaves.
The default is SLAVE for duplex multiplexers and MASTER (KBD T/D) for simplex
multiplexers.
Relay Output
Operates the relay on the back of the multiplexer. The relay is used to change the VCR
to its alarm recording speed. In the alarms mode, an alarm signal is produced when a
remote switch opens or closes a ground in the multiplexer; for example, if a switch is
on a door and the door is opened. In the activity mode, the multiplexer continually
monitors select camera inputs for motion. When motion is detected, the multiplexer
increases the frequency with which that camera(s) is shown and recorded. Activity
detection is most effective when only a few cameras are showing activity (refer to the
Camera Setup
section).
CAUTION:
When
programming the
MX4000
Multiplexer from the
KBD4000V Keyboard,
DO
NOT ATTEMPT TO
CHANGE THE UNIT ID.
Changing the unit ID from
the keyboard will interrupt
the keyboard
communications to the
multiplexer,
resulting in erratic
multiplexer operation. Refer
to the
Troubleshooting
section, in this manual to
correct the situation.
