Additional Functions

Auto-Home Function
The PRO-650 can be configured to automatically return to it's master Preset Point,
the "Home Point". This is particularly useful for monitoring a door, hallway, car
space or similar, where the default position of the camera should be viewing this
location.
To turn Auto-Home ON and OFF use the numerical command shown opposite.
The numerical commands are "81" to enable the Auto-Home function, and "82"
to disable it. You can also change the wait time (the amount of time the camera
will spend stationary before defaulting to the home point) by using numerical
shortcuts 77 - 80.
The Home Point is stored as PRESET 76. Defining this Preset Point will redefine
the Home Point. To remove the Home Point, follow the instructions for deleting a
Preset Point, and DELETE Preset Point 76.
F1 - F4 Shortcut Buttons
These are user-defined buttons, which can be used as master shortcut buttons.
Defining the behaviour of shortcut buttons is complex, and not recommended
for novice or intermediate users. Proper usage of the shortcut interface requires
detailed knowledge of PELCO-P/D protocols. In this example, we'll set F1 to be a
shortcut key to access Preset Point 8. The PELCO command for this operation is:
0x00 0x07 0x00 0x08.
• Press the SHOT button, followed by -/--. Key in "240" and press ENTER.
• The LED display will now show "0---"
• Input X, where X is the F button you wish to assign the shortcut to. In this
example, as we want to define F1, enter "1" and press ENTER.
• The display will now show "1---". In this example, we wish to enter "0"
(abbreviation of 0x00 in hexadecimal).
• The display will now show "2---". Continuing the above example, enter "7" and
press ENTER.
• The display will now show "3---". Enter "0", press ENTER.
• The display will now show "4---". Enter "8", press ENTER.
Once this has been defined, pressing F1 will instantly take the camera to Preset Point 8.
To create other customised shortcut programs you'll need a list of commands for PTZ
protocols. These are easily obtained via the Internet - just enter the protocol you'd like
into a good search engine and you'll find several lists compiled by different authorities.
The specific protocol you'll use depends on your needs and limitations of your specific
setup. If in doubt, we suggest hiring an experience installer/technician.
