SENDING AUXILIARY COMMANDS TO A DEVICE

The DX8000 auxiliary feature allows you to control external equipment connected to the auxiliary outputs of Spectra domes or Esprit positioning systems. The auxiliary function is implemented through the D protocol and P protocol. In this case, the attached camera and DX8000 must be configured to communicate using one of these protocols.

The Aux key selects the auxiliary mode. Buttons 1–4 select which of the camera’s auxiliary outputs to operate. Buttons 1–4 operate as a toggle (on/off) each time they are clicked.

For example, an Esprit equipped with a wiper uses Aux 1 to control the wiper. In this case, pressing Aux and then 1 sends a command to the Esprit to operate the wiper. You must configure the camera to establish how the camera responds to an auxiliary command. For detailed information about how a specific Spectra or Esprit camera system interprets auxiliary commands, refer to the documentation that accompanies your Spectra or Esprit camera system.

To send an auxiliary command:

1.On the DX8000 keypad, click to enter the programming mode.

2.Select the camera in the DX8000 view panel to which you want to send the auxiliary command.

3.Click the Aux button. Keypad buttons 1–4 are available.
