keypad two may move that same camera. After movement commands on keypad one, there is a 20 second
lock out period before control is given to keypad two.
Text display on screen
Monitor 1:
Connect a coax cable from the M1 output on the matrix to the keypad, and connect the keypad to the
monitor’s video output using the other BNC on the keypad.
Monitor 2:
With one keypad - Connect as above, then connect a coax link from Monitor 1 to Monitor 2. This duplicates
the text onto both screens.
