Pan, Tilt, and Zoom (PTZ) Setup

Identifying the Model of the Camera

Honeywell recommends identifying the model of the camera in ACUIX dome cameras, to avoid uploading an ACUIX configuration file from one model of ACUIX camera to another.

1.Run a Maintenance Session.

2.Click the Video tab.

3.Click PTZ.

4.Select a camera that is an ACUIX dome camera.

5.Click Camera Menu. The model of the camera is listed.

Upgrading the Firmware of an ACUIX Dome Camera

1.Run a Maintenance Session.

2.On the Serial Devices tab, click the port to which the Intellibus device is assigned.

3.Click Discover to update the table of ACUIX dome cameras.

4.Do one of the following:

Select all of the ACUIX dome cameras, by clicking the checkbox in the Name column. See figure 6–14.

Select some of the ACUIX dome cameras. If not all of the ACUIX dome cameras are selected, the cameras are upgraded one by one; see step 9 of this procedure.

5.Click Firmware Upgrade. A standard, Windows dialog appears, showing the drives and folders available on the operator's PC.

6.Select a drive, folder and a firmware file for the ACUIX dome camera. These files should have a *.ngd file extension.

7.Click Open.

8.A Maintenance Message dialog box appears, to confirm the operator's selection. To proceed, click Yes.

9.If there are many ACUIX dome cameras connected to the unit, and all were selected in step 4 of this procedure, a Sequence for Upgrading Cameras dialog box appears. Select a sequence, and then click Continue. The upgrade of the cameras can be:

Simultaneous. Approximate time: 10 minutes.

One by one. More time consuming; about 10 minutes for each camera. This upgrade stops if a camera is off, or if the connection fails, and a warning appears for that camera.

If "Simultaneous" is selected, and an ACUIX dome camera is off, or if the connection fails, the upgrade appears to continue, without warning the operator. When all of the ACUIX dome cameras are powered and the connection to them is operational, use this procedure again.
