The cameras that are to be included in the automatic sequence must be
parameterised in the
Monitor cycle on monitor x
dialogue screen (
Automatic
picture cycle
button in the main window).
An image sequence is started using a key on the keyboard, to which the
Start
cycle
function has been allocated.
An image sequence is stopped using a key on the keyboard, to which the
Stop
cycle
function (see section 6.4.2) has been allocated, or by a priority image
display.
Additional functions, such as the period of time the image remains on display, can
also be allocated to keyboard keys.
There are also
3
different operating modes for automatic image sequencing:
z
Camera number
z
Shifting cameras
z
Group
Camera number:
(for monitor cycle/predefined sequence)
In this mode, single images are switched in turn, and the automatic sequence is
only visible on one monitor.
(Switching to monitor x only
and
1 image per switching operation)
Shifting cameras:
(for monitor sequencing)
This operating mode also only displays single images in turn, however each image
that has already been displayed is moved on one step in the monitor string.
This function can only be activated if the length of the monitor string has been set in
Switching to
more than one monitor
previously.
e.g. switching to monitors 1..4. The length of the string is limited to 8 monitors.
(Switching to monitors x to y
and
1 image per switching operation)
Group:
(for image sequencing)
Choose this setting if complete camera groups are to be switched for image
sequencing.
This function can only be activated if the length of the monitor string has been set in
Switching to
more than one monitor
previously.
You can additionally set how many images from the group are switched in each
case. The groups are moved into the monitor string one after another, so that each
time a group is displayed a large number of images are all shifted one step on at
the same time.
The camera group must have been defined in the
Alarm lines/camera groups
dialogue screen. As a group may not include more than 4 cameras, no more than 4
cameras can be switched simultaneously.
(Images per switching operation/image sequence on more than one monitor)
(Switching on monitors x to y
and
several images per switching operation)
