FUNCTIONS

The user can control camera and lens movement through the use of a PTZ Controller. Further, the user can track the target or shift the view while the camera's focal length can be adjusted to the required view angle and target image sizing. Note although manual adjustment of focal length is possible while the dome moves at a high speed, the ST-PTZMINI-540W allows for automatic horizontal and vertical dome speed adjustment consistent with lens focal length and zoom settings so no information is lost during camera movement.

Zoom Control

The user can adjust the image farther or nearer to acquire a panoramic view by use a PTZ Controller's Zoom - I Zoom + controls. The ST-PTZMINI-540W supports both digital and optical variable focus. There are certain conditions whereby the camera may not be able to auto focus:

• The target is not in the center of the image.
  ■ The target is in bright light (e.g., neon light, spot light).
• The target or object is moving too fast.
• The target is a large, square monotonous object such as a wall.
  ■ The target is too dark or vague.
• The target is too small.

Surveillance Functions

A preset position is the storing of a camera location parameter such as horizontal angle, inclination, or lens focus in memory and transferring them to the camera when needed. Recalling and transferring preset positions is done through the PTZ Controller. The ST-PTZMINI-540W supports 128 preset positions.

Set Preset Positions

The ST-PTZMINI-540W supports up to 128 preset positions. Setting the preset positions using a PTZ Controller is done as follows by way of example:

- Move the joystick so the camera is on the location or image for the first preset point. Push Preset button on the PTZ Controller and press number 1 and ENTER for Preset

Controller:

• Preset #126 for linear scanning.
• Preset #1 to 50 (1 being slow, 50 being fast) as the speed index for total scan speed time. Note each value refers to °/second (e.g., 1 = speed of 1°/second)
• Move the controller's joystick to the beginning location and adjust the image to be viewed.
• Preset #127 as the preset point for the beginning location.
• Move the joystick to the ending location and adjust the image to be viewed.
• Preset #128 as the preset point for the ending location.
• Call 128 to activate the linear scan.

Tour

Automatic Tour is incorporated in the ST-PTZMINI-540W allowing preset points to be inserted into a tour list. These preset points with timing pauses can be programmed as a tour route. In so doing, the ST-PTZMINI-540W can automatically follow a predefined path or route. Up to 8 preset points and timing pauses can be stored in the camera. Two tour routes (#101 and #102) can be created using 8 preset points each. The camera pauses 6 seconds at each point. By way of example for Tour Route #101 using 3 preset points:

■ Preset 101.
- For preset point 1 – move joy stick to the first location and Preset point 1.
- For preset point 2 – move joy stick to the second location and Preset point 2.
- For preset point 3 – move joy stick to the third location and Preset point 3.
- Call 101 to activate Tour Route #101.

6. TROUBLESHOOTING

a. No picture after applying power – (i) check all plugs and cables are securely connected to the proper connectors; (ii) ensure your power supply is providing the correct voltage and current.
b. The picture has ripples – (i) check to see if the power supply is experiencing AC ripple, if so a filler may be required; (ii) determine if the monitor is faulty; (iii) determine if other peripheral equipment is causing ripple and if so make the necessary adjustments.
