Unit type
You can operate the ZS-SX in multiplexer or multi-
viewer mode. In multiplexer mode, the ZS-SX supplies
the images of selected cameras to one or more inter-
faced video recorders. In multiviewer mode, the ZS-SX
functions as a comfortable image splitter. During
playback and in multiviewer mode the ZS-SX offers
various digital video functions such as zoom, freeze
frame or pan.
Digital video functions
Several different monitor display modes are available,
including the following:
❚ Frame-by-frame display of individual camera
images
❚ Simultaneous display of 4, 9, 10 or
16 camera images on a single screen
❚ In multiviewer mode additional 10-segment split-
screen including 2 larger segments
❚ Electronically-operated 2X zoom in conjunction
with electronic pan-and-tilt function
❚ Freeze-frame
Alarm functions
An additional external alarm sensor can be assigned
to each camera input connection. Each sensor alarm
activates an acoustic and an optical signal, along with
further functions if required.
The monitor normally displays the images from each
camera in a pre-programmed sequence or as individ-
ual full screen pictures. The system can be pro-
grammed to display – in case of an alarm – only the
images from the camera involved in the alarm activa-
tion.
Any loss of video signal caused by a malfunctioning
camera likewise activates an alarm.
Note
The appendix to this manual contains a
general introduction to the functioning of
multiplexer systems, along with a number of
examples. This information is designed to
help you to program the system and also –
when necessary – to assist in troubleshoot-
ing.
