Each camera that is fitted with a CDC can be controlled via a keyboard. This is
only possible with the first 10 keyboards.

mode
The square buttons on the left of the dialogue screen allows you to set each of the
ten keyboards to one of the following three control modes:
z
Keyboard x controls all cameras on monitor y:
This mode allows automatic control of the camera that is currently switched to a
monitor (permanently assigned to the keyboard) when a camera is switched
manually or as a result of an alarm.
This option is the most
user-friendly
control mode and offers the greatest
security
.
(Monitor parameters can be programmed using the arrow keys)
z
Keyboard x controls the last selected camera:
The keyboard automatically controls the last selected camera, regardless of the
monitor to which the image is switched.
E.g.: If keyboard x was last used to switch camera 4 to monitor 10, automatic
control of camera 4 is now possible.
