used. Move the joystick up to add the time and date back. Move the joystick left to
blank the left side portion of the display from the monitor, and right to return it.
Refer to User Function 5 to verify brightness level. Press [User] to exit the mode.
User Function 7 - Set Time
User Function 7 enables user setting of the time displayed on all system monitors.
After entering the mode, use the joystick to select hours, minutes, or seconds in an
edit line (displayed on the monitor screen). If using the LTC 8555 Series keyboard,
moving the joystick up or down counts the data item up or down; moving right or
left selects between data items. NEXT is used to set the seconds to zero. If [NEXT] is
pressed when the seconds are over 30, the minute count (shown on the operating
clock display) is incremented. If [NEXT] is pressed when the seconds are under 30,
the minutes are left unaffected. Press [Enter] to update the time displayed on all sys-
tem monitors, and press [User] to exit the mode.
User Function 8 - Set Date
User Function 8 enables the user to set the date displayed on all system monitors. If
using the LTC 8555 Series keyboard, use the joystick to select the day, month, or
year in an edit line (displayed on the monitor screen). Move the joystick up or down
to count the data item up or down; move right or left selects between the data items.
If using the LTC 8555 Series keyboard, press [Enter] to update the date displayed on
all system monitors. Press [User] to exit the mode.
User Function 9 - Set Camera ID
User Function 9 permits entry of a 16-character camera identification message. This
message appears on the video monitor display whenever the specific camera is
called up for viewing. If desired, this message can be used to identify the particular
scene being viewed. See Chapter 19, “Character ROM Tables for LTC 8500,” on
page 68 for the various characters available. After entering the mode, users with pri-
ority level 1 can use the joystick to move right or left to select the character to be
changed. The selected character will be identified by a box with a question mark
inside it. The first line of the video monitor screen indicates the code number of the
character selected. Move the joystick up or down to step through the Character
ROM Table, or enter the character's number (as identified in the tables) via the
numeric keypad, and press [Enter]. Once the title has been set, press [Enter] to store
it to memory. If using the LTC 8555 Series keyboard, press [User] to exit the mode.
User Function 10 - Change USER Password
User Function 10 is used to change an operator's keyboard log-on access password.
This feature is only required in systems where the system installer has enabled the
keyboard log-in security feature. After entering the mode, the video monitor display
prompts for the current password OLD PASSWORD. Enter the current user pass-
word via the numeric keypad, and press [Enter]. If the system does not accept the
old password, the system remains at this prompt. If the entered password is valid,
the display changes to the NEW PASSWORD prompt for entry of the new pass-
word (up to six (6) numerals) via the numeric keypad, then press [Enter]. Leave this
step blank if no password is desired. If none is used, at log-on, press [Enter] at the P
prompt. To safeguard against typographical errors, the system prompts VERIFY
PASSWORD requiring reentry of the new password. If the entered passwords do
not agree, the system prompts for reentry and verification of the new password. If
the two password entries agree, the video monitor prompt indicates PASSWORD
UPDATED.
