Lock or Unlock Control of a Monitor

When using IntuiKey keyboards, press [Device Lockout], located on the main Allegiant menu screen for these options.

With LTC 8555 Series keyboards, press [Monitor], [Lock], then [ON] to lock a monitor or [OFF] to unlock the monitor. If the monitor to be unlocked is not the one currently being controlled by the keyboard, enter the monitor number (but do not press [Enter]) after you press [Monitor].

If the Status option is enabled, the section of the on-screen overlay between the camera number and the time shows ML indicating the monitor is locked. This status prevents other operators from changing the video on the monitor being used (unless they have a higher priority). Remember to unlock the monitor when finished so other operators can access it. If an operator with a higher priority accesses a locked monitor and switches to a different camera, the lock is automatically removed.

Recording a Camera Pre-position Scene

 

Select a camera with pan/tilt/zoom control and with preposition options. Using the

 

joystick and lens controls, adjust the camera to view the scene you wish to store.

 

When using IntuiKey keyboards, press [Camera Control], located on the main Alle-

 

giant menu screen to enter a menu screen with this option. Press Set Shot [Set],

 

then select the scene number via the numeric keypad, and press [Enter]. The camera

 

position is stored for recall later.

 

If an AutoDome Series camera is being used, certain pre-position commands are

 

also used to activate operational features/functions. Refer to the AutoDome opera-

 

tion manual for complete information.

 

If an Allegiant conventional receiver/driver is being controlled, the pan/tilt and

 

zoom lens must have the necessary options for pre-position operation. On certain

 

models of AutoDomes and Allegiant Receiver/Driver Series, it is possible to disable

 

a previously stored pre-position, or remove it from a pre-position tour, by pressing

 

Set Shot [Set], the digit 9, followed by the 2-digit pre-position number. Refer to

 

information supplied with the device to determine if it supports this feature.

NOTE

Alarm activations are defaulted to call preposition scene 16.

Recalling a Camera Pre-position Scene

Select the camera to be activated. Press Shot, enter a previously stored camera posi- tion number via the numeric keypad, then press [Enter]. The camera automatically returns to the previously stored position. If a second pre-position is called prior to the completion of the first, the camera will move directly to the second shot.

If the AutoDome Series camera is being used, certain pre-position commands are also used to activate operational features/functions. Refer to the AutoDome opera- tion manual for complete information.

Activate/Deactivate Auxiliary Function

When using IntuiKey keyboards, press [Camera Control], on the main Allegiant menu screen to enter a menu containing these options. To turn on an auxiliary func- tion of a remote camera device, press Aux ON [ON], enter the number of the auxil- iary you would like to activate and then press [Enter]. Holding the [Enter] key down causes the auxiliary function to be sent repeatedly. This capability is useful when the auxiliary is activating a housing window washer function, or a temporary light source.
