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. You may not want to manually pan and tilt the camera to the
specific area, and then zoom and focus.
You can define your own Quick Views to support your specific needs. Refer
to Chapter 3,
“Defining Automatic System Functions
,” for procedures on
defining Quick Views.
The
View
button on the keypad allows you to call up the Quick Views that
you have defined for your cameras. Depending on the type of dome, either 4
or 96 Quick Views may be defined.
The Dome Configuration Worksheet in Appendix A allows you to list which
Quick Views are available for which domes. Make copies of this worksheet
for each dome installed at your facility.
The following procedure describes how to display a Quick View.

Use the number buttons to enter the number of the monitor where you
want to display the video. Then press the
Monitor
button.
2.
Use the number buttons to enter the number of the camera whose Quick
View you want to display. Then press the
Camera
