LTC 8900 | User Manual | Keyboard Operation
With LTC 8555 Series keyboards, press Monitor , Lock ,
then ON to lock a monitor, or OFF to unlock the
monitor. If the monitor to be unlocked is not the one
currently being controlled by the keyboard, enter the
monitor number (but do not press
ENTER ) after pressing
Monitor .
If the Status option is enabled, the section of the on-
screen overlay between the camera number and the time
shows
ML,
indicating the monitor is locked. This prevents
other operators from changing the video on the monitor
being used (unless they have a higher priority).
Remember to unlock the monitor when finished so other
operators can access it.
If an operator with a higher priority accesses a locked
monitor and switches to a different camera, the lock is
automatically removed.
5.4.5 Recording a Camera Pre-position Scene
Select a camera with pan/tilt/zoom control, with pre-
position options. Using the joystick and lens controls,
adjust the camera to view the scene to be stored.
When using IntuiKey keyboards, press
Camera Control ,
located on the main Allegiant menu screen to enter a
menu screen with this option. Press Set Shot [Set] , then
select the scene number via the numeric keypad, and
press
ENTER . The camera position will now be stored
for recall later.
If an AutoDome Series camera is being used, certain pre-
position commands are also used to activate operational
features/functions. Refer to the AutoDome operation
manual for complete information. If an Allegiant
conventional receiver/driver is being controlled, the
pan/tilt and zoom lens must have the necessary options
for pre-position operation.
On certain models of AutoDomes and Allegiant
Receiver/Driver Series, it is possible to disable a
previously stored pre-position, or remove it from a pre-
position tour, by pressing
Set Shot [Set] , the digit 9,
followed by the 2-digit pre-position number. Refer to
information supplied with the device to determine if this
feature is supported.
5.4.6
Recalling a Camera Pre-position Scene
Select the camera to be activated. Press Shot , enter a
previously stored camera position number via the
numeric keypad, then press
ENTER . The camera
automatically returns to the previously stored position. If
a second pre-position is called prior to the completion of
the first, the camera will move directly to the second shot.
If the AutoDome Series camera is being used, certain
pre-position commands are also used to activate
operational features/functions. Refer to the AutoDome
operation manual for information.
5.4.7
Activate/Deactivate Auxiliary Function
When using IntuiKey keyboards, press Camera Control ,
on the main Allegiant menu, to enter a menu containing
this option. To turn on an
auxiliary
function of a remote
camera device, press Aux ON [ON] , enter the number of
the auxiliary to be activated, then press ENTER . Holding
the ENTER key down causes the auxiliary function to be
sent repeatedly. This capability is useful when the auxiliary
is activating a housing window washer function, or a
temporary light source.
To turn off an auxiliary function of a remote camera
device, press Aux OFF [OFF] , enter the number of
the auxiliary you wish to deactivate, then press
ENTER .
With AutoDome Series cameras, auxiliary commands
are used to activate/deactivate certain operational
features/functions. Refer to the AutoDome camera
manual for information on features supported by the
model.
In the Allegiant Receiver/Driver Series, the first
4 auxiliaries correspond to relay outputs. Option switches
in the receiver/driver can configure these to operate as
either
latching
or
momentary
type functions. If configured
for the latching type, the auxiliary will stay on once
activated, until turned off. If configured as
momentary
, the
auxiliary remains on only as long as the ENTER key is
depressed. Auxiliary outputs 2 through 4 can also be
configured as a contact closure, 24VAC, or as line
voltage. Auxiliary number 5 controls the
DITHER
function, detailed below. Auxiliary number 6 corresponds
to an internal receiver/driver
AUTOPANNING feature,
previously enabled by an option switch inside the
receiver/driver.
