3 Programming Facilities
This section describes the facilities provided for programming your multiplexer using
the menu system.
Note
The ALARM key is disabled while the menu system is active.
3.1 Initial Actions After Switching On
The first time that your multiplexer is switched on, the default password for the menu
system is set to password 1 (given on the removable page at the front of these
instructions.) This is also true if you have reset to Factory Settings.
Once your installation is complete, turn on the power. Your multiplexer will start by
displaying the software version and then a multi-screen display on Monitor-A. If you
have previously changed any settings in the Menu system, your settings are still
stored while the power is off and are now current.
Power-Up and Tests
Note
Read all the operating instructions before operating the unit.
•
Power up all the cameras and the monitor, and only then power up the unit by
plugging in the 12V DC class 2 isolated supply.
•
With the unit in record mode, select each camera, full-screen, and check the
picture quality. This is live video. If the picture quality is poor, check the loop-
through terminations, the levels of incoming signals and ground loops.
•
Record/Play quality: Record for 3 minutes at normal VCR speed (3 hour mode)
and then play back the recordings, selecting each camera in turn. Check the
playback picture quality. Ensure that the VCR’s tracking adjustment is correct.
•
For advice on setting-up cameras refer to your camera installation instructions.
•
Test the VCR Vext switch pulse connection to the unit by setting the unit to
Record mode, starting the VCR recording and then changing the VCR record
speed on the VCR front panel. Play back the recording and observe that the unit
displays Pext in the top right corner of your monitor.
•
Alarms: Activate an alarm and observe that the programmed alarm actions take
place, the buzzer sounds and the alarm LED flashes.
