Figure 75. Alarms – Monitor screen Configuring Alarms The MegaPower CPU can respond to 4,096 alarms by calling cameras, salvos, or Presets to armed monitors and turning auxiliary devices on or off. These alarm responses are defined in tables called Alarm Monitor/Contact Tables. EASY CPU provides one master Alarm Monitor/Contact Table and four additional tables for customizing monitor assignments.
• Type – Defining the type of monitor determines how the monitor treats incoming alarms. From a dropdown list, you can define each monitor as: normal. For example, a door opens and activates the alarm: Closing the door clears the alarm instantly. An operator can manually override this alarm. − Single – incoming alarms are displayed on a single monitor. Multiple alarms received at a single monitor will be either sequenced or held based on the monitor’s alarm queuing method.
Contact Arming Deleting Contacts The Contact Arming screen enables you to assign a group of contacts in an alarm table to a monitor. To delete contacts assigned to a monitor as defined in the Contact Arming tab, do the following: Figure 77. Contact Arming screen 1.

Defining Satellite Sites Controlling Access with Partitions The Satellite Sites setup allows you to identify satellite sites and their port connections on the MegaPower CPU. Partitions control user access to cameras, monitors, keyboards, and satellite sites. You can partition cameras to monitors, keyboards to cameras, keyboards to monitors, keyboards to satellite sites, and monitors to cameras (Figure 109). The default setting is “no partitions.” 1.
The screen is split into two sections: Figure 111. Add Cameras dialog • The upper screen displays existing camera definitions and has an Add button in the upper right corner to add new camera definitions. It also has a reset button that allows you to reset camera pseudo numbers to the system default. The range for pseudo numbers is 1-9999. Further, the upper screen allows you to change (add or delete) monitor access in the Monitor Access column.
• Title 1 – Allows you to create a two-line title for each camera that will display on the monitor when the camera is called. Title 1 is the upper line of the title and can be up to eight characters or digits in length with the pseudo number appended to the title. Titles over eight characters are truncated. Note: The CenterTitle1 and Center Title2 columns in the upper screen allow you to position the text shown in the Title1 and Title2 columns on the monitor.

− Block – incoming alarms are displayed on a − Dual Sequence – an incoming alarm is block (group) of monitors with which they are associated. The first incoming alarm is displayed on the first (lowest numbered) monitor of the block. The second alarm is displayed on the next lowest numbered monitor of the block, and so on.
APPENDIX G: Alarm Programming Overview An alarm is a signal generated by an external device connected to the MegaPower CPU system, either directly or through an alarm interface unit. External alarm signals can be generated in different ways, such as opening a locked door or window or detecting a moving object. In this guide, all types of alarm signals are referred to as alarm contacts. The system can be programmed to respond to up 4,096 alarm contacts.
APPENDIX H: Monitor Arming Methods The monitor arming code identifies the alarm display, queuing, and clearance methods for the monitors. contact is not associated with at least one camera and one monitor, it is ignored. Note: Refer to APPENDIX I: Monitor Arming Codes for a detailed explanation of each monitor arming code. The two alarm queuing methods are Sequence and Hold. Alarm Display Method The alarm display method specifies the way that alarm video is displayed on multiple armed monitors.
• Manual Clear – This method relies on an operator clearing it via a keyboard or after the alarm contact number is called to the monitor. All alarms remain queued on their respective monitors until the alarm is manually cleared. • Instant No Ack – This method instantly clears the alarm when the alarm condition returns to a nonalarming state. No operator acknowledgement is permitted.
APPENDIX I: Monitor Arming Codes Monitor Arming Codes identify the alarm display, queuing, and clearance methods for armed monitors, as well as the arm type (an abbreviated code that displays on the monitor when an alarm occurs). The following arming codes are available. Single Display, Sequence Queuing • SSI – Single alarm monitor, all alarms are queued and sequenced. Alarms are cleared when the alarm closures is restored (Instant). • SSI A – Single alarm monitor, all alarms are queued and sequenced.
Block Display, Hold Queuing • BHI – Multiple monitor alarm block, all alarms are queued and displayed on monitors with no existing alarms. Monitors display and hold the first alarmed contacts. Alarms are removed from the queue when the alarm closure is restored (Instant). • BHI A – Multiple monitor alarm block, all alarms are queued and displayed on monitors with no existing alarms. Monitors display and hold the first alarmed contacts.
APPENDIX J: Alarm Arming Notes Associating Alarms with Camera Salvos Monitor Block Queuing for Camera Salvos Each alarm contact can be associated with a camera Salvo for call-up when the alarm is received. To call a Salvo, the alarm contact number should be associated with a monitor block that contains enough monitors to display all of the cameras in the Salvo. If not, the cameras at the end of the Salvo with no matching monitors will not be shown.
APPENDIX K: Satellite Configuration Overview A satellite system is a network of two or more MegaPower 3200 video-matrix CCTV systems linked by video and data communications. You can link up to 30 individual MegaPower 3200 video-matrix CCTV systems into a satellite network. Satellite systems are often used where multiple systems are needed in separate buildings or rooms, such as large multi-building corporate complexes, manufacturing facilities, college campuses, hospitals, and casinos.
Satellite Site Connections Record all local site RS-232 and video trunk satellite (remote) system connections in the tables below. A set of tables should be filled out for each site in a satellite network to identify all connections to and from other sites.
