Holding a Tour
A tour can be stopped and held on a single camera entry by pressing the HOLD key. While a tour
is on hold, all keyboard control actions (pan, tilt, lens adjustment, and auxiliary on/off functions)
can be performed on the held camera.
Re-Starting a Tour on Hold
To re-start a held tour in the forward direction, Press the RUN key. To re-start a tour in the
reverse direction, press the LAST key. Note: tour direction can also be changed while a tour is in
progress. To change the direction of a running tour, press the NEXT or LAST key, depending on
which is appropriate in a given situation.
Calling Salvos
A salvo is the simultaneous display of multiple camera scenes on a group of numerically
contiguous monitors. The number of allowable entries in a salvo is dependent on the particular
switching system being used. Each system salvo has a unique identification number that defines
the set of contiguous monitors. Salvos are programmed in the Menu mode or through system
setup software, but are called to workstation monitors in the Operate mode.
To call a salvo:
1. Enter the identification number of the first (lowest numbered) monitor of the contiguous
monitor group on the numeric keypad. The monitor number will appear in the ENTER
display.
2. Press the MONITOR key to gain control of the monitor. The monitor number will appear in
the MONITOR display. The ENTER display will clear.
3. Enter the salvo identification number on the numeric keypad. The salvo number will appear
in the ENTER display.
4. Press the SALVO key to call the salvo to the monitor group. The ENTER display will clear.
Auxiliary Control
An auxiliary is a relay that switches devices such as lights, door locks, and audible alarms. Such
auxiliary relays are said to be momentary or latched. Either type can be controlled by the
AD2079 keyboard using the auxiliary ON and auxiliary OFF keys.
A momentary auxiliary remains active as long as its control key is pressed. An example of
momentary auxiliary action is a door that remains unlocked as long the auxiliary ON key is
pressed. When the key is released, the door returns to its locked state.
A latched auxiliary remains active until it is deactivated using the appropriate off switch. An
example of a latched auxiliary is a light. When the auxiliary ON key is pressed (and released),
the light is turned on. When the auxiliary OFF key is pressed (and released), the light is turned
off.
Acknowledging Alarms
When a monitor is armed for an alarm contact, the video input (camera view) associated with
that alarm contact is displayed on the monitor when the alarm is activated. If the monitor is
armed for manual clearance, any alarm displayed on the monitor can be acknowledged (cleared)
by an AD2079 operator.
