SERIES MULTIPLEXERS
The MX4004 Genex
®
Series duplex multiplexers can accept video inputs from a maximum
of four cameras. You can work in any of four languages: English (default), French, German,
or Spanish.
These duplex multiplexers let you view multi-screen video while recording or playing tapes
using regular or time-lapse VCRs. MX4004 multiplexers do not record and play back
simultaneously.
The main monitor displays video from a single camera or from multiple cameras.
Video can be either live or from a tape playback. Multiple-screen displays can be in a
four-camera format.
•A spot monitor displays live video from a single camera. A spot monitor is optional, but
increases the flexibility of your system. For example, you can keep an eye on all
cameras in a multiple-screen format on the main monitor while watching a full-screen
view of any one camera on the spot monitor. Or, if you are playing a tape on the main
monitor, you can use the spot monitor to watch live video.
Cameras can be sequenced on all monitors.
There are four alarm inputs—one per camera—that tag the camera images when an alarm
is activated. You can program main and spot monitors to display alarms. Alarm inputs also
activate a relay output, which can be used to change a VCR to its programmed alarm
recording speed. When there is an alarm, the VCR (depending on how it is programmed)
will either record alarm cameras only or record both alarm and non-alarm cameras.
