Dome-Tracking:
Using the mode
Dome tracking
the sensor controls the presets of a P&T head regard-
ing to the coordinates of an object, which has been detected. According to different
camera-types and
–protocols the sensor has to be programmed with a special ‚Dome-
Firmware„ (see
Sensor options
). An information about the activated protocol appears
by using the ‚
Dome-Typ
‟-button (The default protocol is ‚Panasonic„).
The individual setting of presets, dome address and home position can be adjusted for
each channel in the following dialog box:
First of all the Dome tracking mode has to be activated (‚
Tracking On
„) and the dome
address has to be entered. Optionally you can define a home position: After expiration
of ‚
time
„ since the last preset command the sensor will call up this preset number
automatically. Note: Activating the Dome tracking mode automatically activate the
RS485 interface (s.p. 28).
All preset numbers can be defined for each cell within a 16x16 grid:
Using the numeric pad buttons of ‚
preset
„ the actual preset number in the position field
is entered. Then the mouse cursor is positioned on a grid cell and by clicking the left
mouse button the cell is defined by this number. Deleting cells is performed as follows:
Define the actual position as ‚Delete„ (‚
Delete
„ button) and click on the desired cell.
When the mouse cursor is positioned on a cell, that has been already defined, the pre-
set number of ‚position„- field will be overwritten by the cell-preset by clicking the right
button.
To control defined presets in according to the picture areas of the reference camera
you can activate
‚Dome Test ON‘
using the connected sensor/dome:
Clicking on a defined cell or using the numeric pad on the left and the ‚
Select
„ button
the sensor will send the command for the desired preset number. If required you can
manually adjust the settings of the preset (P/T, zoom, focus, iris).
Please use the button
‚Save
„ to store the new preset settings in the dome.
The window of ‚Status„ shows the last commands.
