To automatically rotate the dome 180° from its current pointing position.
See Automatic "Flip" feature.
A feature that allows the current image to be maintained on-screen when switching to a
preset or pattern. This function prevents the display of the dome movement and lens
adjustments while the preset or pattern position is sought. Once the preset or pattern is
ready for display, the image switches smoothly to the new scene. See Preset and Pattern.
The default position to which the dome returns after an assigned period of inactivity
passes. The default position may be a Preset, Pattern, or No Action.
A connection point on the dome that enables the system to monitor Input Devices. There
are four inputs available for the dome.
External devices that provide information about the condition of system components
connected to the inputs on the dome. Typical input devices include door contacts, motion
detectors and smoke detectors.
A feature of the camera that permits manual or automatic switching between color and IR
(black-and-white) operation. When IR mode is active, clearer images may be obtained
under low-light conditions.
Allows you to phase lock the video with the AC power line. When line lock is enabled, it
prevents vertical video rolling when switching multiple cameras to a single monitor. If
text appears slightly tinted on color monitors, disabling the line lock may prevent this
problem.
Relates to the display the dome name, the area where the dome is pointing, the name of
the preset or pattern that is running, and alarm names. The display of each type of name
setting can be enabled or disabled. When the display of camera or area names is enabled,
the information appears on the screen continuously. Preset, pattern, and alarm names
appear only while they are active.
Describes the expected state of a device connected to one of four dome inputs. The
normal state may be open or closed. When a device is not in its normal input state, an
alarm is issued. Transmitting the dome input states to the host controller is not supported
with Manchester.
User-definable setting that may correspond to magnetic north or some well-known
landmark. Used to approximate the camera dome's pointing direction when Direction
Indicators are enabled.
Setting used to improve the quality of video obtained in extreme low-light situations.
When the Open Shutter setting is enabled, low-light information is collected over
multiple fields based on the Shutter Limit setting. As a result, video may appear blurred or
choppy in extreme low-light situations. This setting does not effect camera operation in
normal lighting situations. See also Automatic Gain Control (AGC).
Prevents unauthorized users from starting the Configuration Utility. The password may
be from 1 to 8 characters long.
A series of pan, tilt, zoom and focus movements from a single programmable dome. Up
to 3 patterns may be programmed for the dome.
