Configuring Other Hardware

Serial Device: PTZ

Flexibility

A PTZ serial device is only used to control cameras that pan-tilt and zoom (PTZ). A Multi SA obtains the port number of the Multi-Media unit that is used for PTZ from the installers of a Multi- Media system or by observing the back-panel of the Multi-Media unit.

PTZ device settings

A PTZ device is set using a Maintenance Session, on the Serial Devices tab. It enables the PTZ settings on the Video tab. See Pan, Tilt, and Zoom (PTZ) Setup, p. 85.

To Assign and Set a PTZ Device

1.Consult the installer to find out to which serial port of the unit the PTZ domes / cameras are connected. If more than one PTZ camera share the same serial communications line, make a note of the address set on each camera.

2.Continue or start a Maintenance Session for the Rapid Eye site.

3.Click the Serial Devices tab.

4.A PTZ device is either:

Assigned to a Port. Click PTZ. The settings are displayed and can be changed.

In the Unassigned Devices group. Click PTZ. The settings are displayed and can be changed.

In the New Devices group. Drag the PTZ icon and drop it either on the Unassigned Devices group or on a Port. If you drop it on a port that is already assigned to another device, the PTZ device displaces it; the displaced device is sent to the Unassigned Devices group.

5.Change the values to those suggested by the external modem’s documentation.

6.Drag the modem icon to the port icon bearing the number of the port identified in step 1.

Hardware Report

During a Maintenance Session for the Rapid Eye site, click the Hardware tab. The report includes a serial number of the Multi-Media unit on the Rapid Eye site, the version of software running the Multi-Media unit, date of manufacture and internal hardware used by the unit.
