NOTE: Remember, one multiplexer must be the master. The default setting is Master (KBD-T/D).

NOTE: In the alarms mode, an alarm signal is produced when a remote switch opens or closes a ground in the multiplexer; for example, if a switch is on a door and the door is opened (refer to the Alarms section). In the activ- ity mode, the multiplexer continually monitors selected camera inputs for motion. When motion is detected, the multiplexer increases the frequency with which that camera(s) is shown and re- corded. Activity detection is most effective when only a few cameras are showing activity (refer to the Camera Setup section).

Date Format

Sets the format for displaying the date on the main monitor.

Password

Enables or disables password control to access programming menus.

Front Panel Control

Enables or disables the front panel buttons to operate the multiplexer. In either mode you can access programming menus.

Main Monitor Display

Select ALARMS, ACTIVITY, or ALARMS/ACTIVITY if you want the main monitor to switch to cameras that have alarms or activity detection. If you are using the main monitor for normal video and you do not want alarms or activity detection to override what you are observing, select NONE.

Spot Monitor Display

If you want the spot monitor to switch to cameras that have alarms or activity detection, select BLANK, SEQUENCE, or TRACK MAIN, then under RESPONDS TO select ALARMS, ACTIVITY, or ALARMS/ACTIVITY. If you are using the spot monitor for normal video and you do not want alarms or activity detection to override what you are observing, select NONE.

BLANK - Allows you to view an individual camera, but you cannot run a sequence. An alarm or activity detection will override the camera you are viewing. When the alarm or activity detection goes away, the screen will return to the camera you were viewing.

SEQUENCE - Allows you to view an individual camera or run a sequence. An alarm or activity detection will override what you are observing. When the alarm or activity detection goes away, the screen will return to the camera or sequence you were viewing.

TRACK MAIN - The spot monitor will follow the camera switching that occurs on the main monitor. This feature is used only when a KBD4000 keyboard is connected to the multiplexer for controlling moveable cameras.

Camera Types

The COLOR & B/W setting allows the multiplexer to adapt to the combination of both color and monochrome video signals. The switching speed of the multiplexer is not as fast when it has to change formats between monochrome and color cameras. For monochrome models, you will not receive color from a color camera except in RECORD mode. The RESERVED setting can improve performance when using cameras with non-standard sync or poor video quality.

Unit ID

This is the address of the multiplexer. If your system has more than one multiplexer, each multiplexer must have its own address.

Comm. Type

If your system has an MX4000SVR Genex™ Multiplexer Server and/or a KBD4000 Genex™ Multiplexer Keyboard, one multiplexer (any one) must be the master. Only one multiplexer can be the master. All other multiplexers must be slaves. The master multiplexer communicates between the server and the slave multiplexers. If there is only one multiplexer connected to a server, it must be the master. The KBD4000 keyboard communicates with the multiplexer only when the multiplexer is in its default setting of MASTER (KBD-T/D).

Relay Output

Operates the relay on the back of the multiplexer. The relay is used to change the VCR to its alarm recording speed (refer to the Alarms section).

7.When you have completed all the changes you want to make, go to EXIT or BASIC SETUP.

8.Press the +/- button to exit the programming mode or to go to the basic system setup menu.

When HELP is highlighted, you may press the +/- button to display a help screen that will tell you which buttons to press to configure specific options.
