Video Input Management
It is possible to manage different video inputs by selecting them using the remote
control keys Camera. The function keys Red – Yellow - Camera, can be configured to
be associated with any available video input. Possible choices include:
Room camera
XGA/DVI-I video input
Whatever video peripheral with composite signal (e.g. camera or VCR)
Note: The desired video source must be connected to the System inputs on the back of the
equipment beforehand. For a correct setup of the function keys, see the chapter “Audio-
Video-Data”, section “Camera”.
During a connection it is also possible to control not only the local video camera’s
zoom and panning functions but also those of the remote camera (if enabled). Use the
remote control key Far/Near to select remote or local camera.
HD-SDI Inputs
High Definition cameras must be connected to HD-SDI inputs.
Note: there are two HD-SDI connectors, but the system is able to manage only one at time;
you can select the active input via GUI, or by means of the remote control (you can assign a
quick selection button to each input).
Field of View and Zoom
You can control field of view and zoom in two ways:
• From the HOME PAGE, using the remote control, go to the “video window” and press OK. Adjust
the video camera’s field of view with the arrow keys and press OK on the remote control.
• From the HOME PAGE, go to the Magnifier icon on the status bar and press OK. You will see
a full screen display with the camera under your control. To release camera control, press OK.
Using the XGA/DVI-I IN/OUT
In the system rear panel there are an XGA/DVI-I input to connect a personal
computer. For a correct cabling, see the “cabling scheme”.
Correct use of the XGA/DVI-I implies that the video PC configuration has been set
(setting: screen→ properties) with one of the following picture frequency limits (or
refresh frequencies).
Resolution Refresh Frequency (Hz)
640 x 480 60, 70, 72, 75, 85
800 x 600 60, 70, 72, 75, 85
1024 x 768 60, 70, 72, 75, 85
