Monitor Arming
Alarm contacts are armed for a monitor using a Monitor
Arming Code which identifies the alarm Display method
(Sequence, Hold, or Dual) and the alarm Clearance method
(Instant, Auto, or Manual clear). The different Monitor
Arming Codes available in the AD2150 are shown in Table 4
and are described in the Appendix, page A-3.
To arm a monitor:
1. Turn the keyswitch to PROG position (AD2078A) or enter
the PROG mode (ADTT).
2. Call the monitor to be armed.
3. Enter the Monitor Arming Code number (refer to the
Monitor Arming Codes, Table 4).
4. Press the ARM button in the MONITOR section. The Arm
Type (see table at right) is displayed in the on-screen Status
Line for five seconds, under the camera number.
5. Turn the keyswitch to the OFF position (AD2078A) or exit
the program mode (ADTT).
For codes 13 - 15, the second (Sequence) monitor is selected
automatically (the next numeric system monitor) and armed to
the second Arm Type when the first (Hold) monitor is armed.
As an example, the Sequence, Instant Clear arming code was
selected for the monitor by entering the number 1 on the
keypad and pressing the ARM button. This results in the on-
screen display shown in Figure 3-1.
To disarm a monitor:
1. Turn the keyswitch to PROG position (AD2078A) or enter
the PROG mode (ADTT).
2. Call the monitor to be disarmed.
3. Press the OFF button in the MONITOR section.
4. Turn the keyswitch to the OFF position (AD2078A) or exit
the program mode (ADTT).
To verify the monitor arming at any time, press the keyboard
ARM button. The Arm Type is displayed for five seconds in
the on-screen Status Line. If the monitor has not been armed
or has been disarmed, the code “DIS” is displayed.
