Managing Cameras
You can have up to six cameras connected to a TouchScreen at a time. Each camera has a name
assigned to it when it is added. Each camera can also be associated with a sensor so that it takes a
series of pictures when an alarm is tripped by the sensor.
IMPORTANT: The camera images are accessible to the TouchScreen device and (for one of the
cameras) to the Subscriber Portal. NOTHING ELSE. Service Provider tools do not have access to
these images.
See page 102 for how to:
§ Change the name of a camera as it appears in reports on the TouchScreen and in the
Subscriber Portal.
§ Assign, reassign, and unassign a camera to a sensor so that it takes a series of pictures when
an alarm is tripped by the sensor
See page 104 if you need to replace a camera with another one.
If you are reinstalling the same camera, delete it (see page 104) and then add it again (see the
following procedure below).
Operations to manage the camera are performed from the Installer Settings Menu (see Technician
Operations on page 62)
Note: See Table 5 on page 47 for troubleshooting tips on installing a camera.
