MegaPower LT
Running a Dome Ping
A ping is a function that verifies that an input from a dome camera is present and that the
camera is able to respond to settings made in these menus. A dome ping can be carried
out using the Dome Ping Menu screen.
To run a ping, follow the steps below:
1. In the Installer menu, select the Dome Ping option.
2. In the Dome Ping Menu screen, use the numeric keys to enter the required Input
Number. The title for that input number will be displayed in the Title field.
3. Use the down joystick command to move to the Start Ping option.
4. Press the ENTER key. The text now changes to Stop Ping.
A decimal counter starts. Four counters are shown:
• The TX counter will increment every time a ping is transmitted by the unit.
• The PASS counter will increment every time the ping is answered with the correct
response from the dome camera.
• The FAIL counter will increment every time the ping is answered with the incorrect
response from the dome camera.
• The UNSENT counter will increment every time the ping cannot be sent to the
dome camera.
If the FAIL and UNSENT counters remain at zero then communication between the
MegaPower LT and the dome camera is excellent. If the FAIL and UNSENT counters
increment on numerous occasions then communication between the MegaPower LT
and the dome camera is poor.
5. Press the ENTER key on the Stop Ping option to stop the ping.
6. Select the Return to Menu option to return to the previous menu.
