Up to four different modes can be programmed into the system. Numerous different operational
characteristics can be changed within the different modes such as:
•
Quality of images being transmitted for individual cameras.
•
Event triggers associated with cameras.
•
When a camera will dial an alarm out to the CMS.
Note:
The modes are defined in the following sections (Camera Behaviour etc).
Any previously entered mode names will appear next to an assigned number. To name a new
mode or change the name of a mode, highlight the
Number
and use the
Configure
button to
open the
Mode Properties
dialog box.
Mode Name
Options:
<name>
Maximum 16 characters
Enter a descriptive name for this mode.
Mode Selection
Options:
Use External Input, Use Calendar
Default:
Use External Input
Note:
The choice of a Mode Selection Method will apply to ALL modes.
Use the
Selection Method
drop-down box to determine how the modes will be changed (either
via an input change or by day / time calendar selection) and press the
Configure…
button to
define the operation.
The
Use External Input to Change Modes
option is used to configure switching between two
modes via the use of the
Mode Select Input
on the rear panel of the unit (Pin 9 of the General I/
O connector). Of the four available modes, any two can be assigned. For example, Mode 2 is
assigned to an Open input and Mode 3 to a Closed input. When the
Mode Select Input
pin
changes state, so does the operational mode of the ADPRO FastTx between Mode 2 and Mode
3. For example, an alarm panel that latches an output contact state when setting and unsetting
the system may provide the contact change. In this instance the operational modes of the
ADPRO FastTx system would follow the status of the Alarm panel.
Use the
Configure
button to open the
Input
Mode Selection
dialog box and choose which
Mode is to be assigned when the contact is Open and another Mode for assignment to a Closed
contact condition.

Alternatively, the
Specify Mode Changes in a Calendar
option can be selected when users
require access to different modes on a time schedule basis. This option provides a timetable,
using time blocks of 15 minutes duration, to assign different modes to individual time blocks, or
groups of blocks, to provide the ADPRO FastTx with a great degree of operational flexibility.
Use the
Configure
button to open the
Mode Calendar Settings
dialog box.
