SW-D8000U, 16CH. COLOR VIDEO MULTIPLEXER
The unit has a versatile camera-by-camera AGC Range adjustment. This allows the programmer to
set the unit up via simple menus to compensate for camera inputs that have excessive video levels
outside of the normal AGC range. This is a setup function, which would normally be used only by
the installer.
Example:
Cameras with auto-iris lenses may be adjusted during installation so that the video is consistently at
a much higher level (brighter) than the standard video signals. This is often done to compensate for
cable losses, or simply to improve the general video appearance.
beyond the range of the unit's AGC. The AGC range adjustment will compensate for this.
The SW-D8000U allows the programmer to easily adjust the input AGC separately for each camera
from the front panel controls.
Adjusting the input AGC for any camera:
Select the CAMERA AGC sub-menu from the CAMERA SETUP MENU.
You may now select the camera to be adjusted (1-16) and the selected camera view will appear in
the background of the menu screen. The default AGC range setting is 5 for all inputs.
adjust the range from 1-10 and view the actual image changes to your preference.
NOTE:
To ensure optimum system performance this feature should not be used as a substitute
for correctly setting camera video levels.
CAMERA DISABLE
If a camera is not installed then the continual display of the on-screen VIDEO LOSS indicator "V",
for a cameo or VDL for a full-screen, can distract an operator. In addition, unnecessary time must
be spent to remove the camera from the sequence lists and the record lists. The SW-D8000U
takes care of this situation with one setting.
The SW-D8000U allows the programmer to set inactive cameras as "DISABLED" via a menu
setting, so that video loss indications are not shown.
automatically removed from all programmable sequence lists and the Record List.
Besides being used for cameras which are not installed, this feature is also very useful when a
camera is undergoing maintenance, or has a temporary fault.
NOTE:
The disabled setting does not affect cameras shown on Monitor-A during Play mode.
