Table AA. DX8000 Camera Properties and Values
TYPE OF
PROPERTY
PROPERTY VALUE INDICATES
Read Preset NoPreset The camera’s current view is not the result of a preset.
<preset i > The camera’s current view results from going to this user-defined preset. This value is
created when you create the preset. Note that “i” equals the preset number, which can
range from 1 to the maximum number available in the camera.
Pattern NoPattern The camera is not currently running a pattern.
<pattern i > The camera is currently running this user-defined pattern. This value is created when you
create the pattern. Note that “i” equals the pattern number, which can range from 1 to
the maximum number available in the camera.
Write Preset DontCare When a SET statement with a FOR clause causes a camera to go to a preset, the camera
is locked in the preset view for the duration specified in the FOR clause. The lock is
automatically released once the specified duration has elapsed. Setting the Preset write
property to DontCare releases the lock prior to the specified time, allowing the camera
view to be changed immediately.
For information on locking DX8000 cameras, refer to Devices in the Client Operation
Manual.
<preset i > Go to this user-defined preset. This value is created when you create the preset. Note
that “i” equals the preset number, which can range from 1 to the maximum number
available in the camera.
Pattern DontCare When a SET statement with a FOR clause runs a pattern, the pattern runs for at least the
duration specified in the FOR clause. Setting the Pattern property to DontCare releases
the camera from having to run the pattern for the specified duration, allowing the pattern
to be stopped. Setting Pattern to DontCare does not itself terminate the pattern; it simply
enables the pattern to be stopped.
For information on locking DX8000 cameras, refer to Devices in the Client Operation
Manual.
<pattern i > Run this user-defined pattern. This value is created when you create the pattern. Note
that “i” equals the pattern number, which can range from 1 to the maximum number
available in the camera.
Alarm True Set Alarm to True to indicate the camera is in an alarm state. Camera icons flash in the
alarm colors when Alarm is True.
False Set Alarm to False to indicate the camera is not in an alarm state.
Auxiliaryi On Turn on the camera’s Auxiliaryi feature. Note that “i” equals the auxiliary number, which
can range from 1 to the maximum number available in the camera.
Renaming the auxiliary renames this property. Refer to the Add a DX8000 Camera section
for instructions on renaming auxiliaries.
Off Turn off the camera’s Auxiliaryi feature.
