22 Pelco Manual C1927M (5/99)
Date Format
Sets the format for displaying the date on the main monitor.
Password
Enables or disables password control to access programming menus.
Front Panel Control
Enables or disables the front panel buttons to operate the multiplexer. In either mode
you can access programming menus.
Main Monitor Display
Select ALARMS, ACTIVITY, or ALARMS/ACTIVITY if you want the main monitor to
switch to cameras that have alarms or activity detection. If you are using the main
monitor for normal video and you do not want alarms or activity detection to override
what you are observing, select NONE.
Spot Monitor Display
If you want the spot monitor to switch to cameras that have alarms or activity
detection, select BLANK, SEQUENCE, or TRACK MAIN, then under RESPONDS TO
select ALARMS, ACTIVITY, or ALARMS/ACTIVITY. If you are using the spot monitor
for normal video and you do not want alarms or activity detection to override what you
are observing, select NONE.
BLANK - Allows you to view an individual camera, but you cannot run a sequence. An
alarm or activity detection will override the camera you are viewing. When the alarm or
activity detection goes away, the screen will return to the camera you were viewing.
SEQUENCE - Allows you to view an individual camera or run a sequence. An alarm or
activity detection will override what you are observing. When the alarm or activity
detection goes away, the screen will return to the camera or sequence you were viewing.
TRACK MAIN - The spot monitor will follow the camera switching that occurs on the
main monitor. This feature is used only when a KBD4000 keyboard is connected to the
multiplexer for controlling moveable cameras.
Camera Types
The COLOR & B/W setting allows the multiplexer to adapt to the combination of both
color and monochrome video signals. The switching speed of the multiplexer is not as
fast when it has to change formats between monochrome and color cameras. For
monochrome models, you will not receive color from a color camera except in
RECORD mode. The RESERVED setting can improve performance when using
cameras with non-standard sync or poor video quality.
Unit ID
This is the address of the multiplexer. If your system has more than one multiplexer,
each multiplexer must have its own address.
Comm. Type
If your system has an MX4000SVR Genex™ Multiplexer Server and/or a KBD4000
Genex™ Multiplexer Keyboard, one multiplexer (any one) must be the master. Only
one multiplexer can be the master. All other multiplexers must be slaves. The master
multiplexer communicates between the server and the slave multiplexers. If there is
only one multiplexer connected to a server, it must be the master. The KBD4000
keyboard communicates with the multiplexer only when the multiplexer is in its default
setting of MASTER (KBD-T/D).
Relay Output
Operates the relay on the back of the multiplexer. The relay is used to change the
VCR to its alarm recording speed (refer to the
Alarms
section).
7. When you have completed all the changes you want to make, go to EXIT or BASIC
SETUP.
8. Press the +/- button to exit the programming mode or to go to the basic system setup
menu.
When HELP is highlighted, you may press the +/- button to display a help screen that will
tell you which buttons to press to configure specific options.
NOTE:
Remember, one
multiplexer must be the
master. The default setting
is Master (KBD-T/D).
NOTE:
In the alarms mode,
an alarm signal is produced
when a remote switch opens
or closes a ground in the
multiplexer; for example, if a
switch is on a door and the
door is opened (refer to the
Alarms
section). In the activ-
ity mode, the multiplexer
continually monitors selected
camera inputs for motion.
When motion is detected,
the multiplexer increases the
frequency with which that
camera(s) is shown and re-
corded. Activity detection is
most effective when only a
few cameras are showing
activity (refer to the
Camera
Setup
section).
