Configuring The Line Lock Setting - American Dynamics RAS915LS Operator's Manual

Configuring the Line Lock Setting

Use the Line Lock setting to prevent vertical rolling or adjust the appearance of overlay text on color
monitors.
If you experience problems with vertical video rolling when switching multiple cameras to a single
monitor, enabling the Line Lock setting phase locks the video with the AC power line. All cameras
connected to the same power supply will be synchronized. This synchronization prevents the video
from rolling vertically when cameras are switched.
With the Line Lock disabled, the appearance of text displayed on color monitors may be improved.
However, the video will no longer be phase locked with the AC power line. Video may roll vertically
when switching between cameras.
Changing the Line Lock Setting
1. Select Pan/Tilt/Zoom/Sync Opts from the Dome Configuration Menu.
2. Move the highlight bar to Line Lock. Change the setting.
