6. Move the cursor to DWELL TIME, and then tilt the

joystick left or right to select an alarm detect dwell

time setting.

After alarm detection, the next alarm is not detected

until the specified dwell time elapses.

Tilting the joystick cycles through the setting display

in the sequence shown below. (unit: sec)

The factory default setting is 2S.

If you set OFF, then it does not reset until some

other operation is done. If AUTOTRACK is set, the

camera starts automatic tracking when change

(movement) is detected in the image during SEQ or

SORT.

The factory default setting is OFF.

Notes:

• Monitoring is usually done in SEQ mode, and

when the camera detects change (movement)

automatic tracking starts. To have the camera

return to SEQ mode after a certain amount of time,

set the SELF RETURN setting to SEQ.

• Use the mask setting to mask areas where there is

wind movement of curtains, etc.

• Use a lower sensitivity level (LEVEL) setting for

areas where illumination is low and prone to digital

noise. Also note that operation error can occur

when the illuminance of a subject is changed

suddenly by the headlights of passing cars,

turning lights on or off, etc.

• There is a delay of about 0.2 second from the

point that the camera detects change (movement)

in the image and the point that a signal is sent to

the alarm terminal of a VTR, etc.

• Alarms are not output while the setting menu is

displayed, unless demo mode alarm output is

turned on.

• Alarms are not output when PAN, TILT, ZOOM,

FOCUS or other functions are operating.

• When the motion detector is set to MOTION DET

or SCENE CHANGE, it outputs alarm data during

the blanking period. This can cause operational

problems for a VTR or other device that uses a

time code signal, etc. Turn off the motion detector

when not using coaxial communication.

• The motion detector is not intended for use as

specialty device for the prevention of theft, fire,

etc. The manufacture assumes no responsibility

for any accidents that occur or any losses

incurred while this product is being used.

• When in the preset position the preset position

settings are in effect.

Preset Alarm Setting (PRESET ALM)

Turning on the preset alarm will output an alarm from

the video output port or alarm output connector when

the camera completes a move to a preset position. An

alarm is output in the following cases.

• When the self return function is activated (page 16)

and the camera finishes moving to the home

position, and when switching to the auto mode.

• When SEQ is selected for the auto mode (page 16),

and the camera completes a move to a preset

position during sequential movement

• When SORT is selected for the auto mode (page

16), and the camera completes a move to a preset

position during SORT movement

• When AUTOPAN is selected for the auto mode, and

the camera completes a preset move up to the

AUTOPAN start point

• When the camera completes a move to a preset

position during manual operation

• When PLAY is selected for the PATROL mode, and
