Page 8: Vcr Bypass Function Operation
An approximately 3 second long press of the VCR button activates the “VCR Bypass” function and the VCR LED will flash while the unit is in “VCR Bypass” mode. While in this mode, the DPX16m will pass the VCR output directly to the main display monitor. A single push of the VCR button will return the unit to normal VCR playback mode and/or back to live display mode. -
Page 9: Set Up Menus
ENUS The DPX16m set up is accomplished through its on-screen menus. To enter the menu system, push and hold the DISPLAY button for approximately 3 seconds.

Page 16: Set Alarm Enable Schedule
The DPX16m contains a very flexible and advanced alarming system designed to provide an optimum solution for any installation. Along with the ability to enable various types of alarm inputs, a built in 7-day timer may also be used to individually enable and disable each alarm. The following menus are used to set the timer and select which alarms the timer will control. -
Page 17: Alarm Control Options
When the alarm “Master Enable” mode is selected, the entire DPX16m alarm system will be enabled or disabled by this input according to the logic level specified by the “Master Enable Input Type” setting. This input can be used to control the DPX16m alarm system from a burglar alarm system, or other external control system. -
Page 18: Alarm Activation Type
The Alarm Log may be printed on a serial interface printer which is connected to the DPX16m Serial Port. The log may also be sent to a host computer for storage or processing rather than a printer. The Alarm Log can be cleared by pressing the ZOOM button. -

Page 24: Alarm Interconnection On The Dpx16M
In this application, the pull-up +Vsupply (30Vdc, 50mA max) resistor is not tied to the DPX16m +5V pin, but to the higher voltage system. Voltages greater than Alarm Output +5V must not exceed 30 Vdc and the current Vout = High = no alarm through the output pin must not exceed 50 mA. - Page 25 In some installations, the alarm output is used to activate or deactivate high voltage and/or high current circuitry (110 VAC lights, siren, etc. ) which cannot be controlled directly by the DPX16m. In other cases, the alarm output needs to control multiple circuits of different types (mixed DC and AC equipment) or the “sense”...

Page 27: Supported Vcrs
To accommodate any remaining VCR models, a custom delay table is provided which can be tuned for optimal performance with any VCR hourly format (see page 22). Using this table, the multiplexing rate of the DPX16m can be programmed to be compatible with the recording rate of the VCR. -
Page 28: Specifications
QUIPMENT EQUIREMENTS The DPX16m is designed to be compatible with all NTSC/EIA and PAL/CCIR compatible equipment. The DPX16m will accept 2:1 interlace cameras in either a “line-locked” or “free running” (internal reference) modes. The use of “random interlace” camera is not recommended unless the line lock is turned off. -
