Programming with the AD2089

Each time you move the camera in any direction (with zoom, focus, or iris adjustments), you issue a command to the camera. The three patterns for a dome can collectively consist of up to 98 camera commands.

There is also a pattern time limit. A single pattern cannot have a duration longer than 400 seconds. How ever many commands have been issued, a pattern will stop recording once the time limit has elapsed.

Note

pattern command sequences can vary depending on the switching system and accessories used. Consult the appropriate product manual(s) if necessary. The following pattern commands may not be compatible with your particular system requirements.

Defining Patterns

To define a pattern:

1Turn the three-position keyswitch to the PROGRAM position.

2Enter the pattern identification number on the numeric keypad (the number will appear in the ENTER display).

3Press the PATRN key (the ENTER display will show “P-1”, “P-2”, or “P-3”).

4Press the PROG key. Using the joystick and lens keys, maneuver the called camera to define the pattern.

5Press the ACK key to save the pattern (the ENTER display will clear).

Clearing Patterns

To clear a pattern, overwrite the old pattern with a newly defined pattern. Follow the steps listed in Defining Patterns, above, to define a new pattern.

Arming a Monitor

When a monitor is armed, the camera video associated with an alarm for that monitor appears when an alarm has been triggered. To arm a monitor, do the following:

1Call the monitor to be armed (see Chapter 3).

2Turn the three-position keyswitch to the PROGRAM position.

3Enter the arming type identification number on the numeric keypad (the number will appear in the ENTER display).

Note

For information about arming identification numbers, consult Appendix E in this manual.

4Press the F2 key. The ENTER key will clear, and the selected monitor screen displays the arming type code for five seconds.

Disarming a Monitor

When a monitor is disarmed, the camera video from alarms is not displayed when an alarm has been triggered. To disarm a monitor, do the following:

1Call the monitor to be disarmed (see Chapter 3).

2Turn the three-position keyswitch to the PROGRAM position.

3Press [316], [F2].

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.
