The 4A screen is a compressed picture of channels 1 through 4, the 4B of channels 5 through 8, the 4C of channels 9 through 12, and the 4D of channels 13 through 16. The 9-segment screen shows the pictures of channels 1 through 9 in a 3x3 pattern.

tSpot/Multiscreen Selection Button

(SPOT/MULTISCREEN)

This button is used to select either the Spot output or Multiscreen output.

ySequence Button (SEQ)

This button activates the sequence mode. In this mode, a series of camera pictures is displayed in succession on the monitor screen for the specified duration.

uCamera Selection Buttons (CAMERA SELECT) These buttons select the camera for live picture or pic- ture recorded on the tape. When the VCR is in playback mode and the LED on the VCR/CAM button is on, these buttons select the specified camera picture from the tape for display on the monitor. When the LED is off, the buttons select the live picture of the specified camera.

iCursor Buttons (C, D, A, B)

These buttons move the cursor in the SETUP MENU of the Video Multiplexer, or select an area for Electronic Zooming.

C: Downward

D: Upward

A: Left

B: Right

oIncrement/Decrement Buttons (–, +)

Electronic Zooming is operated with these buttons, Zoom In with the + button and Zoom Out with the but- ton. During the setup, these buttons are used to select parameters.

!0Set Button (SET)

This button executes the selected parameter in the setup menu, and opens a submenu for more detailed settings. Menu items having a submenu are identified by a return symbol at the end of the line.

!1Still Button (STILL)

This button selects either still or moving mode for dis- play on the multiscreen output monitor. Pressing a CAMERA SELECT button will display the correspond- ing picture either in still or moving mode. When a still picture is displayed, the LED lights. Pressing the button again restores the moving picture and turns off the LED. Note: Please note that the tape continues running while

the picture is stilled. You may sometimes have to rewind the tape to the desired position.

!2Electric Zoom Button (EL-ZOOM)

This button specifies the zooming area in the multi- screen output picture. Pressing this button displays the “+” sign representing the center of the area to be enlarged. While the “+” sign is displayed for 5 seconds, move the “+” sign with the cursor buttons to the desired position and press the Increment (+) button. The desig- nated area is enlarged.

To return to the normal picture press the Decrement (–) or the EL-ZOOMbutton.

!3MENU/ESC Button (MENU/ESC)

Pressing this button for 2 seconds or more opens the Setup Menu of the Video Multiplexer. If pressed for less than 1 second, it functions as the Escape button and returns you to the previous menu.

To close the Setup menu when the setup is completed, press the button for 2 seconds.

Notes:

Make sure to distinguish between 1-second and 2- second operation of this button.

Opening the Setup menu does not affect the recording signal (REC OUT) output from the rear panel.

!4VCR/Camera Selection Button (VCR/CAM)

This button selects either VCR playback or the camera picture for display on the monitor. At the same time, it disables or enables recording on the VCR, since the connected VCR performs only playback or recording at a time. The playback picture is displayed on the moni- tor if you start playing back the VCR while the LED (Green) is on. The camera picture is displayed on the monitor while the LED is off. The camera picture is recorded on the tape if you start the VCR recording.

Notes:

If PLAYBACK AUTO is set to ON in the setup, pressing this button is ignored, instead this button follows the VCR status automatically. VCR is select- ed while playing back, and CAMERA is selected during non-playback mode of the VCR.

There may be a delay of a few seconds after

switching this button between VCR and CAMERA when PLAYBACK AUTO is ON.

*The picture may be disturbed for a moment after switch between VCR and camera.

Blinking of the LED is a warning that the ID code is missing in the playback signal. This may happen when using certain VCR types. In this case, the playback picture goes straight to the monitor instead of through the Video Multiplexer. As a result, the playback picture will not be recognizable unless only a single channel is recorded throughout the tape.

Note: Do not press more than two buttons on the front panel simultaneously. This may cause malfunction.
