4.2Important Rules
In order to ensure correct system operation, please be certain to follow the items listed below:
1.Apply AC power to the Video Manager only after all system keyboards are connected and all Divar/System4 video devices have been connected and powered up. If video devices or keyboards are later added or removed, it is important that power to the Video Manager is removed, then restored, so that the Video Manager can automatically adapt to the new configuration.
2.Divar Digital Video Recorders and System4 Multiplexers CANNOT be used together on the same Video Manager.
3.At least one keyboard is required in the system for the Video Manager to operate. IntuiKey Series keyboards, or a mix of IntuiKey and LTC 2601/00 keyboards can be used with System4 multiplexers. Only IntuiKey Series keyboards
4.When using System4 Multiplexers, at least one IntuiKey Series keyboard is required in the system if the alarm functionality of the Video Manager will be used.
5.Only one Video Manager can be used in a system, with a maximum of sixteen (16) devices. Combining multiple Video Managers in a single system is not supported.
6.In configurations using the LTC 2604 Series Keyboard Port Expander, do not skip any keyboard ports on the Expander unit when connecting system keyboards. In other words, if there are only three keyboards in the system, connect them to ports 1, 2 and 3 rather than to some other combination like 1, 3 and 4.
7.Video Manager input 1A is used to detect the video format (NTSC or PAL) of the system. Ensure that a device with valid video is connected to 1A at all times.
