How the System Resolves Conflicts in Camera Control If your system configuration includes two TOUCH TRACKERs, the Main TOUCH TRACKER will always have priority over the Call TOUCH TRACKER when the system is in the camera control mode. Whichever camera the Main operator has selected will be “locked” and the Call operator will not be able to control it. The Call operator may select the camera and display its video on the Call monitor; however, he or she will not be able to control the locked camera.
mode on the monitor, and the associated camera number appears in the bottom left corner of that monitor. If you select a camera via the Main TOUCH TRACKER, its video appears on the Main monitor. If you select a camera via the Call TOUCH TRACKER, its video appears on the Call monitor. Stepping Through the Cameras The Previous and Next buttons enable you to manually step through all of the cameras, one at a time.
You can simultaneously pan and tilt the camera for diagonal movement. For example, move the Tracker Ball diagonally up and to the right; this moves the camera up and to the right. The speed of the camera movement is directly proportional to how far you move the Tracker Ball from its center position. If you move the Tracker Ball slightly to the right, the camera will pan slowly to the right.
the monitor. The longer you press the zoom in/out button, the more noticeable will be the response. Focusing the Camera Focus refers to the process of adjusting the clarity of a scene or an object, as seen through a camera. To adjust the focus on the object or scene displayed on the monitor, press a focus button. You can either focus near (if the object is closer than the current focus setting) or far (if the object is farther away than the current focus setting).
To flip the currently selected SpeedDome, press the Flip button on the keypad. When you flip a SpeedDome, the LCD displays the following message: Cam x Flip Dome + Running the “Apple Peel” Pattern You can instruct a SpeedDome to run the Apple Peel pattern. This is a default pattern that all SpeedDomes can run without any user programming. The Apple Peel pattern consists of three revolutions of camera panning, with tilt starting at the ceiling. Each revolution tilts down approximately 30°.
Cam 2 + Apple Peel Patn The Apple Peel pattern will repeat itself indefinitely until you issue a camera command (pan, tilt, zoom, focus, or iris) to the dome running the pattern. Displaying Quick Views IMPORTANT The SpeedDome Ultra III and newer domes support up to 96 views. Other domes support up to 4 views. The Touch Tracker beeps when you attempt to call up a view numbered higher than 4 on domes older than the SpeedDome Ultra III.
1. Use the number buttons to enter the number of the camera whose Quick View you want to display, for example, camera 12. Then press (the Camera button). 2. Use the number buttons to enter the number of the Quick View you want to display, and then press the View button. If the Quick View exists for the selected camera, the camera will immediately point to the pre-defined Quick View, and then zoom and focus automatically.
When you run a Pattern, you can specify to run the Pattern once, or you can specify to run the Pattern repeatedly until you stop it manually. Both methods are described here. If a list has been compiled for your facility, you can refer to the List of Patterns in Appendix A to determine which Patterns are available for which domes. The following procedure describes how to run a Pattern. Most programmable domes support up to three Patterns defined for it.
If you tried to run a Pattern for a non-programmable dome, or if you entered an invalid Pattern number (any number greater than 3), the TOUCH TRACKER beeps. Running the Sequence Tip: The Sequence can be initiated from the Main TOUCH TRACKER only. The Sequence consists of a collection of Quick Views and Patterns that have been defined for your system's cameras. In the Sequence you can also include fixed shots from any camera.
This is the camera whose Quick View, Pattern or fixed shot appears on the monitor. Cam 3 Sequencing This is the event number assigned to this Quick View, Pattern, or fixed shot in the Sequence. 6 12 This indicates how many seconds are remaining until the monitor switches to the next event in the Sequence. As the Sequence is running, the LCD indicates which camera's video is displayed, which event in the Sequence is active, and how many seconds are remaining in that event's duration time.
Inputs and Outputs. You must know the number of the dome (1 – 16) that the output is connected to, and the output number (1– 4) before you begin this procedure. 1. Refer to your List of Inputs and Outputs to determine which output you want to turn on or off. 2. Use the number buttons to enter the number of the camera whose output state you want to toggle. Then press (the Camera button). 3. Use the number buttons to enter the number of the output you want to control.
replaces the programming information. If you are running the Sequence when an alarm comes in, the alarm information will replace the Sequence information on the LCD. In addition, the video information for the alarm will replace the video information for the Sequence on the Main monitor. The Call monitor and Call TOUCH TRACKER remain unaffected by incoming alarms. Each alarm can be configured to automatically call up video and initiate an output.
alarm acknowledgment is enabled. However, alarms can always be cleared by pressing the Clear button on the Main TOUCH TRACKER. Press the Clear button on the Main TOUCH TRACKER to manually clear the alarm whose information appears on the LCD and whose video appears on the Main monitor. When you clear an alarm, its associated output returns to its original state, and its information is cleared from the LCD. Continue to press the Clear button until all active alarms have been cleared.

Defining a Quick View IMPORTANT The SpeedDome Ultra III and newer domes support up to 96 views. Other programmable domes support up to 4 views. The TOUCH TRACKER beeps when you attempt to program a view numbered higher than 4 on domes older than the SpeedDome Ultra III. A Quick View automatically and instantaneously calls up a view from a programmable dome, regardless of where that dome is currently pointing. You can define your own Quick Views to support your specific needs.
4. Use the Tracker Ball to scroll through the menu selections until Setup View is displayed on the LCD. Setup View Record Pattern 5. Press the appropriate button, zoom or focus, to select Setup View. The following prompt appears on the LCD: Cam 7 Enter View#? Note If you press a number that has been assigned to an existing Quick View for this camera, the new Quick View will overwrite the existing Quick View. There is no warning to indicate that the existing Quick View will be replaced. Use caution. 6.
Tip: A shortcut method for defining Quick Views is available. Press Menu, View, the Quick View number, and Zoom or Focus to create a Quick View of the current scene. Defining a Pattern Note The SpeedDome LT does not support Pattern programming. Refer to the section in this chapter titled “SpeedDome LT Auto Pan Programming” for information about setting the Auto Pan feature. You can define your own Patterns to support your specific needs. You can program up to three Patterns per programmable dome.
Patterns are programmed in real-time. This means that the camera is remembering every programming command you make at the actual speed you issue the commands. For example, if you let the camera sit still for 20 seconds during programming, the camera pause for 20 seconds each time that Pattern runs in the future. The 20 seconds of “non-motion time” is part of the Pattern. Tip: You must use the Main TOUCH TRACKER to define Patterns.
4. Use the Tracker Ball to scroll through the menu selections until Record Pattern is displayed. Record Pattern Alarm Actions 5. Press the appropriate button—zoom or focus—to select Record Pattern. The following prompt appears on the LCD: Cam 3 Enter Patrn#?

There is no warning to indicate that the existing Pattern will be replaced. Use caution. 6.
seconds long. The number of remaining commands for this camera appears on the LCD as you program the Pattern. 9. When you complete programming the Pattern, press the Next button. The following message appears on the LCD: Cam 3 Pattern Saved The TOUCH TRACKER automatically returns to the camera control mode. In the List of Patterns (in Appendix A of this manual), make a record of the Pattern you just defined, including a brief description of the Pattern.
• Which Quick Views, Patterns, and fixed shots will you include in the Sequence? • What are the numbers that were assigned to those Quick Views and Patterns when they were defined? • What are the camera numbers that the Quick Views and Patterns were defined on? What are the camera numbers whose fixed shots you want to include? It is recommended that you to fill out the Setup Sequence Worksheet in Appendix A before you begin setting up the Sequence.
“Act” is the type of event (Quick View, Pattern, or fixed shot), and number assigned to that event when it was originally defined (1 through 96 for Views; 1 through 3 for Patterns; blank for fixed shots). column “Dur” is the amount of time, in seconds, that the event will 4 remain on the monitor before the Sequence switches to the next event. This is the event's duration time. The maximum duration time is 90 seconds.
Defining the Sequence Note You must use the Main TOUCH TRACKER to define the Sequence. The following procedure describes how to define the Sequence. 1. Press the Menu button on the keypad. The TOUCH TRACKER is now in the menu/programming mode, and the menu appears: Define Sequence Setup View 2. Press the appropriate button—zoom or focus—to select Define Sequence.
5. In the Act field, indicate the type of Action, Quick View, Pattern, or fixed shot you are specifying for this event. Press View to indicate a Quick View or a fixed shot; press Pattern to indicate a Pattern. 6. Use the number buttons on the keypad to designate the specific number of this Quick View or Pattern. This number was assigned to the Quick View or Pattern when it was initially defined. If you want the Action to be a fixed shot, press the Clear button. 7.
state, and this triggers an alarm. (Refer to your List of Inputs and Outputs in Appendix A to determine the normal and abnormal state for each input.) When an alarm is triggered, it can automatically call up one video action (either a Quick View, a Pattern, or a fixed shot) and initiate one output. This video action must have been defined for the same dome that the output is connected to, and vice versa.
3. Use the Tracker Ball to scroll through the menu selections until Alarm Actions is displayed on the LCD. Record Pattern Alarm Actions 4. Press the appropriate button—zoom or focus—to select Alarm Actions. The information for that camera's first alarm input appears on the LCD. When you set up an alarm, you will indicate which Quick View, Pattern, or fixed shot will be called up when the alarm is triggered. You will also indicate which output initiates when this alarm is triggered.
In this sample alarm, input 1 on camera 12 is the specific input that will trigger the alarm. The alarm input, for example, could be a motion detector that triggers an alarm when it senses motion. When this alarm is triggered, Quick View 96 on camera 7 appears on the monitor. In addition, output 3 on the same camera initiates automatically. The output might be, for example, a light that turns on when the alarm is triggered.
• Do you want a Pattern to be displayed when this alarm is triggered? If so, press the Pattern button, and then use the number buttons to indicate the specific Pattern (1 - 3). • Do you want a fixed shot to be displayed when this alarm is triggered? If so, press the View button, but do not enter any number in this field. When this alarm is triggered, you will see video of wherever the camera (that you indicated in Step 6) is currently pointing. 9. Move the Tracker Ball to the right.
that other domes support. Instead, use Pattern programming to set the Auto Pan function. Auto Pan Programming Limitations Keep the following limitations in mind when programming the SpeedDome LT Auto Pan feature: • Although it appears to have three Patterns available to program, you can only program the Auto Pan feature for Pattern 1. • Any extraneous movements made during the Auto Pan programming will be ignored when the programming is complete.
Note You must use the Main TOUCH TRACKER to define the Auto Pan for SpeedDome LT. 1. Using the number buttons, enter the number of the SpeedDome LT for which you are defining the Auto Pan. Then press button). (the Camera 2. Pan and tilt the camera to the starting point of the Pattern, and then zoom and focus the camera accordingly. 3. When you have the perfect “starting point” picture displayed on the monitor, press the Menu button.
6. Press the number 1 on the keypad. The following message appears on the LCD: Record Pattern 1 Finish w 7. The Auto Pan is now being recorded. Any extraneous up or down movement will be ignored when programming the Auto Pan. If you pressed an invalid number (any number greater than 3), the TOUCH TRACKER will beep and the system will not allow you to program the Pattern. If this happens, simply press a valid number and continue with this procedure. 8.
