Programming with the AD2089

Programming Macros

There are eight keys on the 2089 keyboard used for macros. A macro performs a sequence of switching system operations by entering a numeric identifier and pressing a single macro key. The macro key caps have user-selected labels which identify locations or general functions.

A macro can consist of up to 21 keystrokes. Up to a 1000 different macros can be divided among the eight keys.

To program a macro:

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

2Enter the number of the macro (range = 1-1000).

Note

Each macro key can have multiple switching sequences and therefore multiple numbers associated with the key. The maximum number of switching sequences that can be assigned to the eight macro keys = 1000. Numbering for each key can start at “1”, but it is not necessary to assign numbers in exact sequence.

3Press the macro key to be programmed. The macro number appears in the CAMERA display and a keystroke counter starting at 21 appears in the MONITOR/DVMS display.

4Enter the keystrokes that comprise the macro.

5After entering the macro keystrokes, press the macro key to conclude the programming sequence.

Macro Examples

Example 1: [1], [Blackjack] = {1], [0], [0], [0], [CAMERA], [1], [0], [PRESET] [Blackjack].

Example 1 contains eight keystrokes. Pressing “1” on the numeric keypad, and then pressing the macro key “Blackjack” calls camera 1000 with preset 10 to the currently selected monitor. Bear in mind, the macro key “Blackjack” is not limited to one macro sequence, nor is it confined to one particular kind of switching function. See Examples 2 and 3 following.

Example 2: [2], [Blackjack] = [1], [0], [RUN], [ACK], [HOLD],[Blackjack]

Once programmed, selecting “2, Blackjack” calls Tour 10, and holds the tour on its first entry. The operator can then step through the tour manually by using the NEXT or LAST keys.

Example 3: [3], [Blackjack] = [1], [0], [SALVO], [Blackjack]

Once programmed, selecting “3, Blackjack” calls Salvo 10, which could consist of multiple views of the same blackjack table, or multiple views of different blackjack tables.

Example 4: [5], [ALT] = [6], [CAM], [10], [PRESET], [ALT]

Once programmed, selecting “5, ALT” calls Camera 6 with Preset 10 to the selected monitor. This preset provides an alternate view of the same subject that Camera 5 is viewing.

Note

Here is an example where the number of the macro provides a clue as to the camera being referenced.

Advanced Macro Examples

In the following examples the “0” key is used as a software shortcut. The “0” key defines a numeric entry as being the value previously displayed within the MONITOR/DVMS or CAMERA display.

Example 1 (“Quick Switch”): [(] = [1], [MON], [0], [CAM], [(]

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.
