Figure 36. Sample Monitor Box on CM9700-CC1 Diagnostic Screen

As illustrated in Figure 36, a monitor box displays the following information:

Logical camera number: Identifies the logical number of the selected camera. Note that the letters CC denote that the camera is a controllable camera. If the letters CC do not appear for a particular camera, the camera is a fixed camera.

Camera auxiliary numbers 1-8: Indicate whether auxiliaries 1-8 are on or off. An auxiliary number appears white when the corresponding auxiliary is off and changes color when the corresponding auxiliary is turned on.

Logical monitor number: Identifies the logical number of the selected monitor.

Logical alarm number: Identifies the logical number of an alarm that has been triggered.

Focus indication lines: Indicate when a camera is focused near or far. When a camera is focused near, the distance between the lines increases. When a camera is focused far, the distance between the lines decreases.

Iris: Indicates when the iris of the camera is being opened or closed. When the iris is being opened, the black area inside the circle increases. When the iris is being closed, the black area decreases.

Zoom and joystick control box: Indicates when a camera is zoomed in or out. When a camera is zoomed in, the box becomes larger. When a camera is zoomed out, the box becomes smaller.

The box also displays camera movement by mimicking joystick control.

Note that each monitor box that is assigned to a camera is displayed in a color. The color of the monitor box changes when a different camera is selected. When a monitor box appears empty, a camera is not selected.
