6.1.41 User Function 40 -
6.1.42 User Function 41
This function provides three (3) configuration options
that determine the behavior and content of the data
commands issued by a master system to a satellite
system. In most cases, it is only necessary to change
the default setting if using a multi-level cascaded
Allegiant satellite system configuration. (Refer to
Appendix section for more information on Satellite
system configurations.) Detailed descriptions of these
options are listed below.
After entering the mode, move the joystick up or down
to select the desired option. Enter a valid user
password, and press [Enter].
a) "CACHE REM CAM" option (default factory
setting). In this mode, satellite commands are issued
repetitively, regardless of whether the satellite camera
is still being viewed by an operator. This mode of
operation is more desirable in standard systems
because it minimizes delays when previous Satellite
cameras are reselected. It is not recommended for use
in cascaded systems. In cascaded systems, this mode
could result in all available Trunk Lines coming from
the 3rd level satellite system to become used up,
making them unavailable to the operators at the
intermediate system.
b) "NO REM CAM CACHE" option. In this mode,
after the top level operator selects a locally connected
camera, the Trunk Line between the top level and the
intermediate level system will immediately be reset to
its Start-up camera (as defined in the Monitor table of
the LTC 8059/00 Master Control Software). This in
turn frees up the Trunk Line between the intermediate
level system and the 3rd level system so it will be
available if needed by an operator at the intermediate
level system.
