or Diamond protocols. The ACUIX™ default protocol is MAXPRO-mode. For
the HJZTP controller ONLY, MAXPRO-mode can be considered exactly
the same as Diamond protocol. From the user's perspective, the
MAXPRO-mode allows access to the same special presets as with the VCL
protocol.
If other controllers, DVRs or protocols are used, MAXPRO-mode, Pelco P or Pelco D
protocols also operate in a similar way as described for the VCL protocol. That is to
say, how you access the special presets and on-screen display (OSD) is approximately the
same.
Before making configuration changes with any controller, you need to:
1. Ensure the dome is assigned to the controller being used. Refer to the applicable
controller user guide for instructions.
2. Confirm video is displaying on the monitor.
3. Confirm there is manual control of the dome using the controller. To manually control
an ACUIX™ and pan, tilt, zoom, focus, and iris, the address must be selected as the
control dome. If the dome ID is turned on in the Display Options menu, the letter M is
displayed on the monitor.
The dome locates other referenced positions (such as presets) using a mechanical home
(or index) position as a reference point. The dome also needs to locate the mechanical
home/index position before responding to the first pan, tilt, and zoom command. For all
protocols the operator can send any command to the dome, but what happens when the
dome is first turned on depends on options as listed in
indicates it can be set to either VCL
