16 Pelco Manual C1921M-G (1/04)
Spot Monitor Display
• Select BLANK, SEQUENCE, or TRACK MAIN if you want the spot monitor to
switch to cameras that have alarms or activity detection. Then under RE-
SPONDS TO, select ALARMS, ACTIVITY, or ALARMS/ACTIVITY.
• Select NONE if you are using the spot for normal video and you do not want
alarms or activity detection to override what you are watching.
The options are defined as follows:
• BLANK – Lets you view an individual camera, but you cannot run a sequence. An
alarm or activity detection will override the camera you are watching. When the
alarm or activity detection goes away, the screen returns to the camera you were
watching.
• SEQUENCE – Lets you view an individual camera or run a sequence. An alarm
or activity detection will override the camera you are watching. When the alarm
or activity detection goes away, the screen returns to the camera you were
watching.
• TRACK MAIN – The spot monitor will follow the camera switching that occurs on
the main monitor. This feature is used only when a KBD4000 keyboard is
connected to the multiplexer for controlling moveable cameras. This mode
provides an easy way of simplifying PTZ control in single-monitor applications.
The operator does not have to switch to SPOT to gain PTZ control and there is
no separate control of the spot monitor when in this mode.
Aux Monitor Display (Duplex Multiplexer Only)
• Select ALARMS, ACTIVITY, or ALARMS/ACTIVITY if you want the auxiliary
monitor to show cameras that have alarms or activity detection.
• Select NONE if you are using the auxiliary monitor to sequence through all
cameras and you do not want alarms or activity detection to override the
sequence.
The options are defined as follows:
• BLANK – This means the screen remains blank unless there is an alarm or
activity detection.
• SEQUENCE – This means the monitor sequences all cameras unless there is an
alarm or activity detection.
• CAM 1 through CAM 16 – This means the monitor displays the selected camera
unless there is an alarm or activity detection.
Camera Types
• COLOR & B/W – This setting lets the multiplexer adapt to the combination of
both color and monochrome video signals. The multiplexer’s switching speed is
slower when it must change formats between monochrome and color cameras.
For duplex monochrome models, you will not receive color from a color camera
except on the SPOT or AUX monitor displays.
For simplex monochrome models, you will not receive color from a color
camera except in RECORD mode.
• RESERVED – This setting can improve performance when using cameras with
non-standard sync or poor video quality.
Unit ID
This is the multiplexer’s address. If your system has more than one multiplexer, each
must have its own address. This must be set at the multiplexer—not at the keyboard.
NOTE:
When programming
the MX4000 multiplexer
from the KBD4000 key-
board, DO NOT TRY TO
CHANGE THE UNIT ID.
Changing the unit ID from
the keyboard interrupts
keyboard communication to
the multiplexer, causing
erratic multiplexer operation.
Refer to the
Troubleshooting
section to correct the
situation.
