Creating Tours
A system Tour is a programmed sequence of different camera views switching one after another on a monitor. Tours provide an efficient way for operators to see multiple areas of interest without having to call up cameras manually.
You can call Tours to run on any monitor using keyboard commands or schedule them to run automatically by placing them within Event Timers (see Event Timers on page 35).
You create System Tours by identifying each camera action to run, the order in which each action will appear on the monitor and the length of time the action is to remain on the monitor before switching (dwell time).
Key points to remember when programming Tours:
•The system allows 64 system Tours, and every Tour can include up to 64 Tour entries.
•Tours can include Salvos, Presets, Patterns, auxiliaries, and other Tours as entries.
•Any camera specified on one Tour entry can be repeated on another entry using a different dwell time, Preset, or auxiliary.
Click on the Switching – Tour link in the Explore menu. The following screen appears.
Figure 68. Tours screen
The Tours screen is divided into two sections. The left side, “Tours,” allows you to create tour numbers and names. The Cameras tab section on the right side of the screen allows you to create the entries, cameras, and other actions associated with each Tour.
To create Tours, complete the following fields. To create additional Tours, click on the asterisk in the header of the last row displaying a Tour.
