Selects a camera to display on the current operating monitor. The NEXT
key (+) and PREV key (-) commands switch to the next numbered
camera in the system.
Starts the selected sequence going forward (incrementing camera
numbers) by pressing and holding the NEXT key for two seconds.
Starts the selected sequence going backward (decrementing camera
numbers) by pressing and holding the PREV key for two seconds.
Places the running sequence on hold, freezing the currently selected
camera on the monitor. It lets you control the camera or switch. The
sequence is still “armed” on the monitor, but inactive.
Moves the currently selected pan and tilt device left or right at the speed
indicated. If you omit the speed, some devices move at their default
speed and others move at their slowest possible speed. Speed
information has no effect on fixed speed devices.
Moves the currently selected pan and tilt device up or down at the speed
indicated. If you omit the speed, some devices move at their default
speed and others move at their slowest possible speed. Speed
information has no effect on fixed speed devices.
Makes the currently selected camera zoom in (close up view) or zoom
out (wide view).
Changes the good focus range nearer or farther on the currently
selected camera.
Opens (brighter image) or closes (darker image) the iris on the currently
selected camera.
Stops all image motion (stops pan, tilt, zoom, focus, and iris). Does not
stop a pattern.
On receivers that do patterns, these commands let you record your
motions and operations (for a limited time) and then have the system
repeat them.
Recalls a stored preset position.
Sets a preset location with an embedded label, where the ASCII string
must be UPPERCASE characters.
The [string] is an alphanumeric label up to 20 ASCII characters long
and [1-9999] is the associated preset number.
NOTE:
All transmitted characters
must be ASCII
.
Auxiliaries are relay outputs that can be controlled through the protocol.
1-8 operate auxiliaries at the camera (receiver) and 9-11 operate F1-F3
auxiliaries at the CM6700.
