SET ALARM CONTACTS
This menu allows programming of the alarm contacts input to
the AD2150. 128 entries are allowed (this corresponds to two
model AD2091 Alarm Interface Units cascaded). Each Alarm
Contact Number (ACN) entry is associated with a camera
number, dwell time, and optional preset, auxiliary, and connect
next for salvo call on alarm.
When SET ALARM CONTACTS is selected from the System
Menu (above), the following menu is displayed. This menu
has sixteen pages with eight entries per page. See page 4-3 for
menu paging instructions.
As an aid to programming the Alarm Contacts, contact
numbers 1 through 32 are defaulted to cameras 1 through 32.
If the eight ALARMS inputs on the rear panel of the AD2150
are used for alarm contact inputs (see pages 4 and 6), the first
eight entries of this menu correspond to the ALARMS
connector inputs. When these are used, the model AD2091
Alarm Interface Unit provides only an additional 120 alarm
contacts (ACN 9 - 128), for a total of 128 contacts in the menu.
Refer to Alarms, Appendix page A-2, for further information
on alarm contact programming.
ACN (Alarm Contact Number) Each of the ACN entries is
unique and consists of a camera number, dwell time, preset
scene number, auxiliary number, and a connect next. Since
each entry is unique, a camera may be entered as many times
as required with different dwell times, different presets, etc.
CAM (Camera) This specifies the camera number associated
with the ACN entry for callup on an alarm contact. If the CN
field is “S”, the CAM entry is associated with System Salvos,
and the Camera number entry is a System Salvo number.
DWL (Dwell) The dwell time or length of time the camera is
displayed on the monitor must be set for each entry. The dwell
time may be from 1 to 60 seconds. An entry of 61 HOLDs the
current camera displayed.
PRE (Preset) - If presets have been defined for the camera,
the preset scene specified in this entry is called automatically
when the camera associated with that entry is displayed on
alarm receipt. If a preset is not desired, enter a zero.
AUX (Auxiliary) - If the camera site is equipped with a
Receiver that has Auxiliary relays, an auxiliary can be
activated automatically on alarm receipt. If no auxiliary action
is desired, enter a zero in this field.
CN (Connect Next) - Connect Next is used to program salvo
switching on alarm. Salvo switching calls up a set of cameras
simultaneously to a contiguous group of monitors, for the
dwell time specified in the first camera entry. The maximum
number of monitors in a CN salvo is five. Yes (“Y”), No
(“N”), or Salvo (“S”) can be selected for CN.
• If “Y” is selected, the Connect Next feature calls the next
table entry to the next contiguous monitor; the next ACN is
no longer active and cannot be used for an alarm contact.
• If “N” is selected, the Connect Next feature is not initiated.
The next ACN entry in the table is used for an alarm contact.
• If “S” is selected, a pre-programmed System Salvo is called.
The System Salvo number is specified in the CAM entry.
