It describes how to select monitors and control cameras. It provides instructions for displaying Quick Views, Patterns, and Sequences.
Selecting Monitors Your system supports up to five monitors for displaying camera video. If two TOUCH TRACKERS are installed at your facility, either controller may display video from any camera on any of the monitors. However, only one TOUCH TRACKER can be in control of a monitor at any given time. To select a monitor, do the following: 1. Use the number buttons to enter a monitor number (1 - 5). 2. Press (the Monitor button).
Stepping Through the Cameras The Previous and Next buttons enable you to manually step through all of the cameras, one at a time. Press the Previous and Next buttons to step backward and forward, one camera at a time, through the 32 available camera inputs. Controlling a Camera's Pan and Tilt Once you have selected a camera, you can manually control the movement of that camera. Pan is the side to side movement of the camera. tilt is the up and down movement of the camera.
Ball farther to the right, the camera's panning speed increases until it reaches its maximum speed. This variable speed operation applies to programmable domes only. Non-programmable domes provide two speeds: normal and fast. Controlling Zoom and Focus Once you have selected a camera, you can control the zoom and focus settings of that camera. The Zoom buttons are located on the left side of the Tracker Ball and the Focus buttons are located on the right side of the Tracker Ball.
buttons, the focus buttons reacts based on how long it is pressed. The longer a focus button is pressed, the more noticeable the response will be. Note For SpeedDome LT and SpeedDome Ultra series of domes, using a focus button changes the dome to manual focus mode. To resume auto focus mode, press Iris Open and Iris Close simultaneously. Controlling the Iris Normally, the camera's auto gain function and the auto/manual iris function control the brightness and darkness of the picture.
Running the “Apple Peel” Pattern You can instruct a SpeedDome to run the Apple Peel pattern. This is a default pattern that all SpeedDomes can run without any user programming. The Apple Peel pattern consists of three revolutions of camera panning, with tilt starting at the ceiling. Each revolution tilts down approximately 30°. The Apple Peel pattern provides you with a complete view of the area.
Displaying Quick Views IMPORTANT The SpeedDome Ultra III and newer domes support up to 96 views. Older domes support up to 4 views. The TOUCH TRACKER beeps when you attempt to call up a view numbered higher than 4 on domes older than the SpeedDome Ultra III. A Quick View enables you to instantaneously call up a specific view from a programmable dome, regardless of where that dome is currently pointing. A Quick View is useful when you want to look at a particular item or area immediately.
3. Use the number buttons to enter the number of the Quick View you want to display, and then press the View button. If the Quick View exists for that camera, the camera will immediately point to the pre-defined Quick View, and then zoom and focus automatically. The following information appears on the LCD: CAM 12 MON 3 VIEW 4 If you tried to call up a Quick View for a non-programmable dome, or if you entered an invalid View number (any number greater than 96), the TOUCH TRACKER beeps.
2. Use the number buttons to enter the number of the camera whose Pattern you want to run. Then press the Camera button. 3. Use the number buttons to enter the number of the Pattern you want to run. Then press the Pattern button (if you want the Pattern to run once), or press the Repeat Pattern button (if you want the Pattern to repeat indefinitely until you stop it). If the selected Pattern exists for that camera, the Pattern will automatically begin running.
You can define the Sequence that most adequately supports your specific needs. Refer to Chapter 3, “Defining Automatic System Functions,” for procedures on defining the Sequence. To run the Sequence, press the Seq button. The Sequence automatically begins running and the information shown here appears on the LCD. This is the camera whose Quick View, Pattern, or fixed shot currently appears on the monitor. This is the event number assigned to this Quick View, Pattern, or fixed shot in the Sequence.
device. You can control the state of any output device connected to the system by using the TOUCH TRACKER. There can be up to 129 output devices (128 for domes, 1 for the video matrix switcher) configured at a single facility. It is useful to post information about the output devices near to the TOUCH TRACKERs. The Dome Configuration Worksheet in Appendix A allows you to write the information about your dome outputs in an easy-to-read table.
If you entered an invalid output number (any number greater than 4 or an output that does not exist) the TOUCH TRACKER beeps. Controlling Switcher Outputs If you press the Output On button without entering a number first, the output device connected to the video matrix switcher activates. The following information will appear on the LCD: CAM 25 MON 3 OUTPUT ON If you press the Output Off button without entering a number first, the output device connected to the video matrix switcher deactivates.
Each alarm can be configured to automatically call up video and initiate an output device. For example, when an alarm is triggered, it can automatically run a specific Pattern and set off an audible alarm. In addition, whenever an alarm is triggered, the TOUCH TRACKER beeps, signaling an active alarm. The TOUCH TRACKER beeps every second until the alarm is cleared either manually or automatically. There can be up to four alarms active at one time.
If the source of the alarm is the switcher, you will see CAM 33 displayed here. This is the number associated with the specific input that triggered the alarm. SRC: CAM 33 INP 4 MON 5 ALARM 4 This is the number of the monitor that was called by the alarm. This indicates how many alarms are currently active.

By using Quick Views, Patterns, and Sequences, you can easily survey the areas that you want without panning, tilting, or focusing the cameras manually.
Defining Quick Views IMPORTANT The SpeedDome Ultra III and newer domes support up to 96 views. Other domes support up to 4 views. The Touch Tracker beeps when you attempt to program a view numbered higher than 4 on domes older than the SpeedDome Ultra III. A Quick View automatically and instantaneously calls up a view from a programmable dome, regardless of where that dome is currently pointing. You can define your own Quick Views to support your specific needs.
Note For SpeedDome LT and SpeedDome Ultra, adjusting the focus switches the dome to manual focus mode. Each time the Quick View is called, you will need to manually focus the image. To prevent this, press the Iris Open and Iris Close buttons simultaneously to resume auto focus mode. 3. When you have the perfect picture displayed on the monitor, press the Menu button. The TOUCH TRACKER is now in the menu/programming mode, and the menu appears on the LCD: DEFINE SEQUENCE SETUP VIEW 4.
The following message appears briefly on the LCD: CAM 15 MON 2 VIEW SAVED If you press an invalid number (any number greater than 96), the TOUCH TRACKER beeps, and the system will not save the Quick View. If this happens, simply press a valid number and the Quick View will be saved. If you want to test the Quick View, press the number button and View for the Quick View you just created. Record each Quick View you define on a copy of the Dome Configuration Worksheet included in Appendix A.
There is also a time constraint on Patterns. A single Pattern cannot have a duration longer than approximately 6 minutes and 50 seconds. Even if a Pattern has only two camera commands in it, the Pattern will stop recording once its duration time has elapsed. Patterns are programmed in real-time. This means that the camera is remembering every programming command you make at the actual speed you issue the commands.
The TOUCH TRACKER is now in the menu/programming mode, and the menu appears: DEFINE SEQUENCE SETUP VIEW 4. Use the Tracker Ball to scroll through the menu selections until Record Pattern is displayed. RECORD PATTERN AUTO ALARM ACK 5. Press the appropriate button—zoom or focus—to select Record Pattern. The following prompt appears on the LCD: CAM 8 MON 3 PATTERN #? IMPORTANT If you press a number assigned to a Pattern for this camera, the new Pattern overwrites the existing Pattern.
If you press an invalid number (any number greater than 3), the TOUCH TRACKER beeps, and the system will not allow you to program the Pattern. If this happens, simply press a valid number and continue with this procedure. 7. The Pattern is now being recorded in real-time. If you let the camera sit still at this point, that non-motion time records as part of the Pattern. 8. Move the camera around and create a logical, usable Pattern.
SpeedDome LT Auto Pan Programming Auto Pan is a special feature supported by SpeedDome LT only. It allows you program a smooth side-to-side camera pan of an area. The SpeedDome LT does not allow you to program the same types of Patterns that other domes support. Instead, use Pattern programming to set the Auto Pan function.
Tip: The Auto Pan can be defined from the primary TOUCH TRACKER only. 1. Using the number buttons, enter the number of the SpeedDome LT for which you are defining the Auto Pan. Then press button). (the Camera 2. Pan and tilt the camera to the starting point of the Pattern, and then zoom and focus the camera accordingly. 3. When you have the perfect “starting point” picture displayed on the monitor, press the Menu button.
Note The Auto Pan must be programmed for Pattern 1 only. 6. Press the number 1 on the keypad. The following message appears on the LCD: RECORD PATTERN 45 FINISH W 7. The Auto Pan is now being recorded. Any extraneous up or down movement will be ignored when programming the Auto Pan. 8. Move the camera until you see end point for the Auto Pan you are programming. Keep in mind this end point must be less than one full revolution of the dome. 9. When you see the end point, press the Next button.
Understanding Sequence Programming You can define a Sequence that incorporates up to 64 events for each TOUCH TRACKER. An event is a Quick View or Pattern that you have already defined; an event can also be a fixed shot. The events that you include in the Sequence can be defined for any camera. For each event, you designate a duration time, which indicates how long that event will remain on the monitor before the Sequence switches to the next event.

When the define Sequence prompt is displayed, the cursor appears in the Cam field. This is where you enter the camera number for the first event to be included in the Sequence. If the Sequence is undefined, or if the first event in the Sequence was skipped, the LCD looks like this: EVT CAM ACT DUR 01 -- VIEW-- -- If someone has already set up the Sequence that includes the first event, the LCD displays information for the first event.
3. Use the Tracker Ball to scroll to the event you want to define. 4. In the Cam field, use the number buttons to enter the camera number for the action or fixed shot you want to include. The camera number must be entered as two digits. 5. In the Act field, indicate the type of action—Quick View, Pattern, or fixed shot—you are specifying for this event. Press View to indicate a Quick View or a fixed shot; press Pattern to indicate a Pattern. 6.
Alarm Programming Overview You can define up to 136 different alarms (128 from dome inputs, 8 from switcher inputs) for your system. An alarm is triggered when one of the inputs connected to a dome or the switcher changes from its normal state to its abnormal state. For example, if the input is a smoke detector, its normal state would be “not detecting smoke.” However, when smoke is detected, it changes to its abnormal state, and this triggers an alarm.
When the Tracker Ball is moved to the right of the View or Pattern entry, the lower line of the LCD displays the information related to outputs. Refer to the following illustration. CAM12/1==> MON 5 OUT CAM09 OUTP3 This is the dome whose output will be activated when the alarm is triggered. This is the number of the output that will be activated when the alarm is triggered. In this example, input 1 on camera 12 is the specific input that will trigger the alarm.
Setting Up System Alarms Tip: Alarm actions can be defined from the primary TOUCH TRACKER only. The following procedure describes how to set up a system alarm. 1. Press the Menu button. The TOUCH TRACKER is now in the menu/programming mode, and the menu appears: DEFINE SEQUENCE SETUP VIEW 2.
