AUX/LENS Section Controls
AUXILIARY
The ON and OFF buttons in the AUXILIARY section
control the operation of momentary and latched auxiliaries.
The action of either momentary or latching auxiliaries
depends on the options installed on the 1640/1680 Series
Receiver at the site being controlled. See the appropriate
receiver Operating Instructions manual for information
regarding the setup and use of auxiliaries.
The AUXILIARY ON and OFF buttons also control the
speaker on the AD2078 keyboard. Refer to the appropriate
switching system's Operating Instructions manual for
specific instructions on speaker control.
LENS CONTROLS
The buttons in the Lens Control section of the keyboard
provide control over motorized lenses of the cameras, as
follows:
CLOSE/OPEN - These buttons are used to reduce (CLOSE
the iris) or increase (OPEN the iris) the amount of light
entering the camera to obtain the proper video level.
NEAR/FAR - These buttons are used to focus the lens on
close objects (NEAR) or distant objects (FAR).
WIDE/TELE - These buttons are used to obtain a wide-
angle (WIDE) or telephoto (TELE) view of the picture.
Any two of the LENS controls and the joystick pan/tilt
control can be operated simultaneously.
MENU PROGRAMMING CONTROL
The AUXILIARY/LENS section buttons also provide
control over menu programming functions provided by the
Matrix Switching System Controllers. The legends beside
each button, on the keyboard face-plate, indicate its
functions in menu programming.
Up/Down/Left/Right Arrow - Moves the menu cursor.
PAGE Up/Down Arrow - Moves to other menu pages.
ENTER - Stores entered data for menu functions.
EXIT - Exits menu programming functions.
Refer to the appropriate system's Operating Instructions
manual for information regarding menu programming.
ENTER/KEYPAD Section Controls
NUMERIC KEYPAD
The numeric keypad is used to enter numbers for monitor
and camera switching, auxiliary control, setting or calling
presets, and for accessing menu functions. The numbers
entered are displayed in the ENTER window.
The CLEAR button is used to clear the data entered as well
as clear the ENTER window.
PRESET Section Controls
PRESET
A "preset" is a known, memorized location or scene that a
camera, with motorized pan/tilt and lens, points at. Camera
sites, equipped with 1640 or 1680 Series Receivers, can have
multiple preset scenes stored in the receiver's memory for
recall by simple keyboard actions.
The SET button in the PRESET section is used in setting
preset scenes in the receiver. The keyswitch must be in the
PROG position for the SET action. The CALL button is
used in activating the presets to call selected scenes. Refer
to the appropriate system and receiver Operating Instructions
manuals for further details on setting and calling preset
scenes.
JOYSTICK MOVEMENT
The variable position, Vector-Solving joystick is used to
control the pan and tilt features of the cameras connected to
the Matrix Switching System with remote pan/tilt drivers.
The joystick is held in the direction desired to move the
camera: up and down for camera tilt, left and right for
camera pan. For variable-speed pan/tilt units, the camera
movement speed is in direct proportion to the position of the
joystick; the further from the center the joystick is moved,
the faster the camera moves. The camera continues to move
until the joystick is centered.
