Calling Presets (Shots)
A
preset
is a memorized location or scene that a pan/tilt camera can display on operator demand.
Presets are also referred to as
shots
or
targets
. Depending on the matrix switching system used, the
operator will have the option of calling a certain number of presets, each with its own unique
identification number. Presets are positioned and stored in memory in the Program mode, which
will be discussed in the next chapter. Once they are programmed, presets are called to view in the
Operate mode.
To call a preset:
1. After calling a pan/tilt camera to view (see page 3-2), enter the preset identification number on
the numeric keypad (the preset number appears in the ENTER display).
2. Press the PRESET key to call the preset of the camera under control (the ENTER display
clears). The selected video now appears on the monitor screen with appropriate pan, tilt,
zoom, and focus adjustments.
Note: when the AD2088 is used with a switching system using AD SpeedDomes in conjunction
with an AD2083-02A code translator, the PRESET key can be used for a range of commands
beyond the definition and calling of presets. Consult the AD2083-02A manual for a complete
listing of these commands.
Running System Tours
A
tour
is a dynamic sequence of camera views, each of which appears on a selected monitor screen
for a specified
dwell time,
and each of which can have a pre-programmed
preset
status,
auxiliary
status
,
and
connect next
designation. System tours are also referred to as
universal tours.
System
tours are programmed in the Menu mode.
Additionally, there are
monitor
or
"scratch-pad"
tours, which are temporary tours programmed for
the operator's currently selected monitor. Scratch-pad tours are set up in the Program mode, and
will be discussed in the next chapter.
To run a system (universal) tour:
1. Enter the appropriate monitor identification number on the numeric keypad (the monitor
number will appear on the ENTER display).
2. Press the MONITOR/VCR key to gain control of the monitor. The monitor number will
appear in the MONITOR/VCR display. The ENTER display will clear.
3. Enter the system tour number to be associated with the monitor under control. The tour
number will appear in the ENTER display.
4. Press the RUN key, and then press the ACK key within three seconds to run the designated
system tour.
Holding a Tour
A tour can be stopped and held on a single camera entry by pressing the HOLD key. While a tour
is on hold, all keyboard control actions (pan, tilt, lens adjustment, and auxiliary on/off functions)
can be performed on the held camera.
Re-Starting a Tour on Hold
To re-start a held tour in the
forward
direction, Press the RUN key. To re-start a tour in the
reverse
direction, press the LAST key, followed by the RUN key. Note: tour direction can also be changed
while a tour is in progress. To change the direction of a running tour, press the NEXT or LAST
key, depending on which is appropriate in a given situation.
