AD2088 Glossary G-3
P
pan Side to side camera movement
pattern A sequence of pan, tilt, zoom, focus, and iris movements from a single programmable
dome. The dome “learns” these movements in real time through keyboard
programming, and can replay them automatically.
preset A preset is a pre-positioned camera scene which can be programmed with cameras
installed with pan/tilt and motorized lens capability. A preset can be called to a
monitor through manual keyboard control, or can appear automatically as part of a
system tour or salvo. Presets are also referred to as Targets or Shots.
protocol The method by which data is transmitted. Essentially, the language a system speaks.
RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 are protocols that can be used by the AD2088.
S
salvo A salvo is a simultaneous display of multiple camera scenes appearing on a
contiguous set of monitors. A salvo can be called manually by a system operator, or
can appear automatically as part of a system tour or alarm call-up.
switching system A system in which an incoming video signal or signals are routed to a bay, and then
can be switched either manually or automatically to any one of multiple video outputs.
The AD168 switching system can accommodate up to 168 video inputs and up to 24
video outputs.
synchronization Synchronization is the process by which macros programmed for one AD2088
keyboard are copied into other AD2088 keyboards by transferring the macros from
the original macro-programmed keyboard to the system CPU, and then transferring
the macros from the CPU to another keyboard.
system tour Also referred to as a universal tour. A programmed sequence of cameras with
assigned dwell times, presets, auxiliaries, and connect next designations.
T
tilt Up and down camera movement.
tour A tour is a sequence of camera scenes viewed on at a time on a video monitor. A
monitor tour is a temporary sequence of scenes programmed for a single monitor. A
monitor tour can contain up to 64 camera, with a dwell time for each camera. A
system tour is a pre-programmed through S³ setup software. 64 system tours can be
programmed for callup, either by an operator, or an automatic timed event, to any
system monitor at any time. Each system tour can contain up to 64 entries with dwell
time, with optional preset and auxiliary action for each camera.
V
VCR control The AD2088 keyboard can implement VCR control by selecting the VCR operating
mode, and pressing any one of seven VCR control keys: Play; Stop; Fast-Forward;
Rewind; Record; Pause; and Eject
Z
zoom The action of apparently moving closer to or away from an object, as viewed through
a camera lens.
