Running Monitor Tours
A monitor tour is a selected sequence of camera video inputs, with selected dwell
times, to be displayed on the called monitor. The Prog button is used to define the
monitor tour. The
Run
button is used to initiate the monitor tour. The
Prog
button is
under keyboard lock protection; all users can access the
Run
button.
Depending on the system setup and monitor tour selected, the monitor either
continuously displays a series of video inputs or displays a sequence and holds on a
selected camera input. To pause the monitor tour, press the
Hold
button. This will
allow you to use the
Next
and
Last
buttons to manually step through the series of
cameras in the tour. To restart the tour, press
Run
.
Because the matrix keyboard works with all current models of American Dynamics
switches, you should refer to the system operating instructions for more information
about setting up and running monitor tours.
Universal (System) Tours
Another type of tour that your system may support is the Universal Tour . A universal
tour is a programmed sequence of cameras with assigned dwell times, presets,
auxiliaries, and connect next designations. This is also known as the
System Tour . For

instructions.
To run a universal tour:

same manner as with the monitor tour. Refer to Running Monitor Tours on page 3-10.
