SETUP MENUS
The following paragraphs take you through the menu system
step-by-step, describing each menu’s purpose and options.
System Time/Date
This menu displays the time and date stored in the internal
clock/calendar, firmware version number and revision date.
During normal operation, the Simplex displays the time and
date at the top of the screen and encodes time and date onto
each field of video sent to the VCR.
During tape playback the encoded time and date is displayed.
The current time and date is NOT displayed.
NOTE: Be sure to turn off the VCR time/date display feature.
If it is turned on, the tape may not play back correctly,
or if the tape does play back, the VCR time and date
will also appear over each camera image.
Set the time and date using the
arrow
buttons to position the
flashing highlight over each character and set its value. Enter
the time in
HH:MM:SS
24-hour format. Enter the date in
MM/DD/YY
format (

format in the PAL/CCIR ver-
sion). Note that the clock starts running when you move the
highlight into the date field.
NOTE: You can turn the time/date display off or on at any time.
