NON-MENU PROGRAMMING

Monitor Tour Programming

A Tour sequentially displays a selected sequence of camera
video inputs on any monitor. A Monitor Tour is a temporary
sequence of cameras programmed for the called monitor.
A maximum of 64 cameras may be included in a Monitor Tour.
Cameras may be entered in any order and as often as required.
Each camera is displayed for a set period of time (dwell time).
To program a complete Monitor Tour:
1. Call the monitor on which the tour is to be run.
2. Turn the keyswitch to the PROG position.
3. Call the camera which is to be displayed first in the tour.
4. Enter "62" and press the PROG button. This puts the
system in Tour Programming mode, and displays the dwell
time of the called camera in the on-screen Status Line.
CAUTION: The "62 - PROG" removes all cameras from the
sequence for that monitor (sets all dwell times to "0") - do this
ONLY to establish a completely new tour.
Do not enter "62 - PROG" during the remaining steps. This
removes all previously programmed cameras from the tour and
necessitates complete tour reprogramming.
5. Enter "1" to "60" for the desired dwell time in seconds. To
stop and Hold the tour on that camera, enter "61".
6. Press the keyboard PROG button. This sets the dwell time
for the on-screen camera to the value entered.
If no more cameras are to be included in the tour, skip to
Step 8; otherwise, continue with Step 7.
7. Call the next camera to be included in the tour sequence.
Cameras need not be inserted in the tour in numerical order.
Repeat Steps 5, 6, and 7 until all cameras to be included in
the tour have been programmed.
8. Press either the HOLD or the RUN button to leave tour
programming.
The HOLD button displays the picture from the last camera
programmed on the monitor and leaves the tour on Hold.
The RUN button switches the picture to the next camera in
the tour and initiates the tour sequence.
To run a Monitor Tour
Following Monitor Tour programming, if the tour is on Hold
press the RUN button to start the tour. Use the HOLD, NEXT,
LAST (2078 only), and B-PAS (2078 only) buttons to control
the tour, as described on page 2-4.
When a tour is running, press the HOLD button to stop the tour
and Hold the camera being displayed. While a tour is on Hold,
the tour may be re-programmed as follows.
To add a camera to a Monitor Tour:
1. Press the keyboard NEXT button until the tour is at the
camera position to be added, then press the HOLD button.
CAUTION: Do not enter "62 - PROG" during these steps.
This removes all previously programmed cameras from the
tour and necessitates complete tour reprogramming.
2. Call the camera to be displayed at this position of the tour.
The called camera will be inserted in the tour at this point.
3. Enter the desired dwell time (1 - 60), or Hold (61).
4. Press the keyboard PROG button to set this dwell time.
5. Press either HOLD or RUN to leave tour programming.
To remove a camera from a Monitor Tour:
1. Press the keyboard NEXT button until the camera to be
removed is displayed, then press the HOLD button.
CAUTION: Do not enter "62 - PROG" during these steps.
This removes all previously programmed cameras from the
tour and necessitates complete tour reprogramming.
2. Enter "0" and press the PROG button to erase the current
tour entry.
3. Press either HOLD or RUN to leave tour programming.
To re-program a single camera in a Monitor Tour:
1. Press the keyboard NEXT button until the camera to be re-
programmed is displayed, then press the HOLD button.
CAUTION: Do not enter "62 - PROG" during these steps.
This removes all previously programmed cameras from the
tour and necessitates complete tour reprogramming.
2. Enter "0" and press the PROG button to erase the current
tour entry.
3. Enter the desired dwell time (1 - 60), or Hold (61).
4. Press the keyboard PROG button to set this dwell time.
5. Press either HOLD or RUN to leave tour programming.
A System Tour supercedes a Monitor Tour. When a System
Tour is started on a monitor (see page 2-4), any tour currently
programmed for that monitor is erased. After System Tour is
called to a monitor it may be altered by the re-programming
steps above. This does not permanently re-program the stored
System Tour, but effectively "changes" it to a Monitor Tour.
