Matrix Installation and Operation
Cancelling a Tour
A tour is cancelled when:
• A camera is called to display on the monitor.
• A telemetry command for the monitor is issued.
• An alarm is triggered. The tour is re-enabled automatically when the alarm is cleared.
Alarm Menu
The Alarm menu is only available to users with the installer privileges, and it is used to
specify every aspect of alarm operation.
The Alarm menu is used to specify the contact type for each individual alarm input, whether
that be normally-open or normally-closed. It is also used to create responses, which can
be linked to the triggering of an alarm input or the receival of a network event from another
matrix. For example, when an alarm input is triggered, a response can be created that
sends a message to the MegaPower LT telling it to switch to a preset position on a specified
camera, to activate one or more of the auxiliary outputs, to generate an audible sound
from the keyboards or to generate a network event that can be sent to other units in the
network.
Using this menu, it is also possible to specify alarm monitors (i.e., monitors that specifically
show pictures when alarms are triggered) and global alarm settings.
NOTE
A system keyboard can be used to manually generate an alarm. To do this, press the
FUNCTION (
) key, enter the number of the alarm input to be triggered and then press
the ALARM ACKNOWLEDGE ( ) key.
