ALARM IMPLEMENTATION ISSUES

(if needed, reference the attached Default SAT Menu Settings Sheet)

Alarm programming involves configuring SAT Monitor and Alarm menus and, possibly, some 9760 System configuration files. If you program alarm functions without regard to the status of the monitor-out lines on the SAT, you are going to get into trouble. There is only one source of alarms on the SAT: the physical actuation of a relay input, going from its non-alarm to its alarm state. On the other hand, there are three alarm-reporting destina- tions possible and each destination is dependent on associated programming configurations. In one, the alarm is seen and acted upon by the LOCAL SAT only. In another, the alarm is seen and acted upon by the 9760 System only. Finally, the alarm can be seen and acted upon by both the LOCAL SAT and the 9760 System at the same time.

For each destination to be programmed, Pelco recommends that you not stray outside the guidelines outlined below for program- ming the various menus until you are quite familiar with the ramifications of doing so. Improper programming can lead to unexpected (but not uncorrectable) results that might lead you to believe that your equipment isn’t operating properly. This built-in alarm reporting flexibility allows for a more versatile, dynamic, alarm environment. The trade-off is that you must be observant when configuring the menus.

LOCAL ONLY

For LOCAL SAT alarm viewing and reporting, at least one monitor-out line on the SAT must be configured as LOCAL and, connected to it, there should be a physical monitor for viewing purposes.

For the monitor connected to the monitor-out line just refer- enced, do the following:

In the SAT menus

listed below

 

Do the following

MONITOR

Set ALM TYPE to AUTO or MAN

MENU

Set VIEW to LOCAL

 

In the ALARM ENABLE sub-menu:

 

 

enable alarms to be viewed

 

 

MENUALARM

For the alarm inputs desired, choose an

 

 

activation TYPE ( N.O. or N.C.)

 

ARM the alarm in the LOCAL column*

 

Assign a preset # (PRE) if the alarm

 

 

camera is preset capable and you want a

 

 

preset called

 

Make sure the System Alarm columns

 

 

are zeroed-out.

 

 

 

 

 

* Remember, ALM 1 calls SAT camera 1,

 

 

ALM 2 calls SAT camera 2, and so on.

 

 

 

SYSTEM ONLY

For 9760 SIDE alarm viewing and reporting, at least one

monitor-out line on the SAT must be configured as a TIE LINE and

it should be connected to a video input line on the CM9760-MXB for viewing purposes.

For the monitor-out line just referenced as a tie line, do the

following:

In the SAT menus

listed below

 

Do the following

MONITOR

Set ALM TYPE to OFF

MENU

Set VIEW to TIE LINE

 

In the ALARM ENABLE sub-menu,

 

 

disable all alarms

 

 

MENUALARM

For the alarm inputs desired, choose an

 

 

activation TYPE (N.O. or N.C.)

 

DIS-ARM(- -) all alarms in the LOCAL

 

 

ARM column

 

Zero-out all presets

 

Enter a physical alarm # (as configured

 

 

in the 9760-CC1) in the SYSTEM

 

 

ALARMS column. *

 

 

 

 

 

* This is the alarm that will be triggered

 

 

on the CM9760-CC1.
