Lock or Unlock Control of a Monitor
•When using IntuiKey keyboards, press [Device Lockout], located on the main
Allegiant menu screen for these options.
•With LTC 8555 Series keyboards, press [Monitor], [Lock], then [ON] to lock a
monitor or [OFF] to unlock the monitor. If the monitor to be unlocked is not the
one currently being controlled by the keyboard, enter the monitor number (but
do not press [Enter]) after you press [Monitor].
If the Status option is enabled, the section of the on-screen overlay between the
camera number and the time shows
M
L
indicating the monitor is locked. This status
prevents other operators from changing the video on the monitor being used (unless
they have a higher priority). Remember to unlock the monitor when finished so
other operators can access it. If an operator with a higher priority accesses a locked
monitor and switches to a different camera, the lock is automatically removed.
Recording a Camera Pre-position Scene
Select a camera with pan/tilt/zoom control and with preposition options. Using the
joystick and lens controls, adjust the camera to view the scene you wish to store.
When using IntuiKey keyboards, press [Camera Control], located on the main Alle-
giant menu screen to enter a menu screen with this option. Press Set Shot [Set],
then select the scene number via the numeric keypad, and press [Enter]. The camera
position is stored for recall later.
If an AutoDome Series camera is being used, certain pre-position commands are
also used to activate operational features/functions. Refer to the AutoDome opera-
tion manual for complete information.
If an Allegiant conventional receiver/driver is being controlled, the pan/tilt and
zoom lens must have the necessary options for pre-position operation. On certain
models of AutoDomes and Allegiant Receiver/Driver Series, it is possible to disable
a previously stored pre-position, or remove it from a pre-position tour, by pressing
Set Shot [Set], the digit 9, followed by the 2-digit pre-position number. Refer to
information supplied with the device to determine if it supports this feature.
NOTE Alarm activations are defaulted to call preposition scene 16.
Recalling a Camera Pre-position Scene
Select the camera to be activated. Press Shot, enter a previously stored camera posi-
tion number via the numeric keypad, then press [Enter]. The camera automatically
returns to the previously stored position. If a second pre-position is called prior to
the completion of the first, the camera will move directly to the second shot.
If the AutoDome Series camera is being used, certain pre-position commands are
also used to activate operational features/functions. Refer to the AutoDome opera-
tion manual for complete information.
Activate/Deactivate Auxiliary Function
When using IntuiKey keyboards, press [Camera Control], on the main Allegiant
menu screen to enter a menu containing these options. To turn on an auxiliary func-
tion of a remote camera device, press Aux ON [ON], enter the number of the auxil-
iary you would like to activate and then press [Enter]. Holding the [Enter] key down
causes the auxiliary function to be sent repeatedly. This capability is useful when the
auxiliary is activating a housing window washer function, or a temporary light
source.
