Using the AD2089 in Operate Mode

2Press the MONITOR/DVMS key to gain control of the monitor. The monitor number will appear in the MONITOR/DVMS display. The ENTER display will clear.

3Enter the system tour number to be associated with the monitor under control. The tour number will appear in the ENTER display.

4Press the RUN key, and then press the ACK key within three seconds to run the designated system tour.

Holding a Tour

A tour can be stopped and held on a single camera entry by pressing the HOLD key. While a tour is on hold, all keyboard control actions (pan, tilt, lens adjustment, and auxiliary on/off functions) can be performed on the held camera.

Note

When a tour is paused the NEXT and LAST key can be used to step through the cameras views in forward or reverse order.

Re-Starting a Tour on Hold

To re-start a tour on hold, Press the RUN key.

Changing Tour Direction

To change the direction of a running tour, press the NEXT or LAST key, depending on which is appropriate in a given situation.

Calling Salvos

A salvo is the simultaneous display of multiple camera scenes on a group of numerically contiguous monitors. The number of allowable entries in a salvo is dependent on the particular switching system being used. Each system salvo has a unique identification number that defines the set of contiguous monitors. Salvos are programmed in the Menu mode or through system setup software, but are called to workstation monitors in the Operate mode.

To call a salvo:

1Enter the identification number of the first (lowest numbered) monitor of the contiguous monitor group on the numeric keypad. The monitor number will appear in the ENTER display.

2Press the MONITOR/DVMS key to gain control of the monitor. The monitor number will appear in the MONITOR/DVMS display. The ENTER display will clear.

3Enter the salvo identification number on the numeric keypad. The salvo number will appear in the ENTER display.

4Press the SALVO key to call the salvo to the monitor group. The ENTER display will clear.

Auxiliary Control

An auxiliary is a relay that switches devices such as lights, door locks, and audible alarms. Such auxiliary relays are said to be momentary or latched. Either type can be controlled by the AD2089 keyboard using the auxiliary ON and auxiliary OFF keys.

A momentary auxiliary remains active as long as its control key is pressed. An example of momentary auxiliary action is a door that remains unlocked as long the auxiliary ON key is pressed. When the key is released, the door returns to its locked state.

AD2089 specifications

The American Dynamics AD2089 is a cutting-edge surveillance camera designed for versatile security applications. Integrating advanced technology and user-friendly features, it stands out as an ideal choice for monitoring both indoor and outdoor environments.

One of the principal features of the AD2089 is its high-resolution imaging capability. It supports up to 1080p full HD video, ensuring that the captured footage is clear and detailed, which is crucial for effective surveillance. The camera is equipped with a 2.8 to 12mm varifocal lens, offering adjustable focal lengths that allow users to customize the field of view according to their specific monitoring needs. This flexibility is particularly beneficial in dynamic environments where the focus may shift frequently.

Another significant characteristic of the AD2089 is its robust low-light performance, thanks to its advanced infrared (IR) capabilities. The camera can function effectively in total darkness, providing night vision support that captures clear images even in minimal lighting conditions. This feature enhances overall security, especially during nighttime when criminal activity is more likely to occur.

The AD2089 also incorporates intelligent video analytics (IVA), enabling real-time analysis of the surveillance footage. This includes features such as motion detection, intrusion detection, and line crossing alarms. By leveraging these analytical capabilities, users can receive timely alerts and have the ability to react quickly to potential security breaches or suspicious activities.

In terms of installation and integration, the AD2089 supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) technology. This simplifies wiring requirements by allowing power and data to be transmitted through a single Ethernet cable, thereby reducing installation costs and efforts. Additionally, the camera is designed to be weather-resistant, making it suitable for outdoor deployment in various environmental conditions.

Furthermore, the AD2089 is equipped with secure data storage options, supporting both local and cloud-based recordings. This ensures that footage is safely archived and easily retrievable, which is essential for any security operation. With features like remote access through mobile devices and a user-friendly interface, the American Dynamics AD2089 stands out as a reliable and powerful surveillance solution, catering to the diverse needs of modern security systems.
