Chapter 3 - Configuration
The System menu above shows the items displayed when you first enter the menu and the
other items that are available by scrolling up or down.
3.4.3 Leaving the menu
If you are deep within the menu structure, follow these steps to leave:
•
If necessary move the cursor to the left column.
•
Scroll upwards until the cursor points to TOP (this is the main menu).
•
Press the Select button; the cursor now points to the Menu Off item of the Main menu.
•
Press the Select button to leave the menu.
This is the recommended way of leaving the system menu. The menu system disappears after
a few seconds when you stop navigating. This delay can be set in the
MONITORING
>
MENU
.
However, when you enter the menu again you enter at the last position of the cursor and not at
the top of main menu. To prevent confusion the next time you enter the system menu, it is
advisable to leave the system menu by returning to the main menu (TOP) and selecting MENU
OFF.
3.4.4 Making changes
To find out where to change a function, consult
“XCU menu reference” on page 63
under which menu group or subgroup the function is located. If the cursor points to an item
(and there are no double arrows to indicate a sub-menu) then the item pointed to has a value.
The value can be:
•
a toggle value (only two values, for example Yes or No)
•
a list value (more than two values)
•
an analog value (variable from 00 to 99)
•
or unavailable (---).
If the value is unavailable it cannot be changed. This is indicated by three dashes (---). This can
occur, for example, when a function is switched off. The analog values associated with that
function are then unavailable. If there are only two values associated with the function, then
pressing the Select button toggles between these two values. If a value is displayed next to a
function that is one of several possible values, then pressing the Select button places the
cursor in a list menu indicating the value currently selected. Use the Up and Down buttons to
point to a new value. Press the Select button to return the cursor to the function list. If an
analog value is displayed next to a function name, pressing the Select button places the cursor
in front of the value and the navigation control is used to change the analog value. Press the
Select button to return the cursor to the function list.
3.4.5 User levels
There are four user levels: user 0, user 1, user 2 and user 3. The purpose of the user levels is to
restrict the set of functions which can be changed by whoever is operating the unit. User level
0 is a special protection level which locks most of the operational controls of the camera. Use
this level to ensure that a camera that has been set-up is not tampered with. User level 0 is not
normally used for operational purposes as it is too restrictive for normal circumstances. The
recommended minimum user level is 1. For full control set the level to 3. When you switch off
the power, the access rights that were obtained by the use of the PIN code are disabled and
the camera starts at the assigned user level when switched on again.
