Performing a Ping Test

A ping test checks and verifies the state of communications between camera domes and the MegaPower CPU. The ping test also reports configuration information from the camera dome for display on the EASY CPU camera status screen. Refer to Camera Status on page 25 for detailed information on the camera status screen.

To initiate a ping test, enter the special function key

29-F1on your keyboard. Refer to APPENDIX E: Auxiliary Key Code Functions on page 69 for a listing of keyboard special function keys.

At the start of a ping test, the mnemonic and flash version number data are displayed on a selected monitor for a few seconds before the ping test data is collected and displayed for the remainder of the test.

As the test progresses, the monitor displays the number of transmission attempts and the number of failure counts (up to 6 digits) of the attempts that failed to receive a reply from the dome.

A ping test allows concurrent testing of up to ten domes to different monitors.
