• To temporarily disable the use of a camera and any alarms that may be generated by it, the Disconnect
button is used. For example, Disconnect can be set if maintenance is being performed on that camera

used to define the behaviour of each individual camera and a number of tabs are available to set various properties.
2.3.3.3.1 Camera Name
Option: 16 characters maximum.
Type the name to be associated with this camera. Hint: Try to use names that make the camera location and the channel
number to which it is connected, easily identifiable. For example, CAM07 LIFT LOBBY, REAR DOOR CH15 or
CH09 ATM#3 EAST ST.
2.3.3.3.2 Colour/Monochrome Camera
Options: Colour, Monochrome
Default: Colour
Define that this particular camera is monochrome only (black & white) to allow the processing hardware to ‘sharpen’
the images by bypassing some of the colour filter processing normally performed on the signal.
2.3.3.3.3 Camera Terminated
Options: Yes, No
Default: Yes (ticked)
Use the checkbox to define whether the selected channel (camera output) is terminated with a 75 ohm resistance. By
default all channels are terminated.
Clear the checkbox when the video cable from the camera is to be connected to the ADPRO FastTrace’s video input
via a ‘T-Connector’. In this case, the video may be fed to another piece of equipment, for example a video switcher or
a CCTV monitor.
2.3.3.3.4 This Camera has a PTZ Station
Options: Yes, No
Default: No
Set the checkbox when this channel is connected to a camera with PTZ (Pan/Tilt/Zoom). The type of PTZ equipment
is set in the PTZ Settings option (refer to Section 2.3.3.2).
