THIS APPARATUS MUST BE EARTHED.

To ensure safe operation the three-pin plug supplied must be inserted only into a standard three-pin power point which is effectively earthed through the normal household wiring. Extension cords used with the equipment must be three-core and be correctly wired to provide connection to earth. Wrongly wired extension cords are a major cause of fatalities. The fact that the equipment operates satisfactorily does not imply that the power point is earthed and that the installation is completely safe. For your safety, if in any doubt about the effective earthing of the power point, consult a qualified electrician.

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is interned to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

TO PREVENT FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOIS

TURE.

CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK), NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.

ture can be selected with the front panel switches.

(b) VCR OUT : A quad or 3x3 display is always sup-

plied by setting the VCR OUT menu.

6. A back-up memory inside maintains preset title character information.

7. Video Loss Checking Function If the video signal is lost due to a disconnected cable or other reasons, an alarm buzzer beeps and a caution message is displayed on the monitor screen.

8. Using RS232C connector by connecting with computer makes possible to remote access with no distance limit.

9. The Quad Shift function allows you to shift between two quad pictures (each consisting of 4 picture segments).

10. Pauses can be inserted in the pictures (STILL mode) only in multi picture mode when monitoring camera picture.

11. You can monitor sequentially, full-size single or multi pictures (quad or 3x3).

up to nine windows (3x3) for simultaneous display of the nine different images. Simple front panel switch operation allows quick selection between single, quad, and 3x3 camera display modes.

With this unit, different multi picture never can be sent to the VTR OUT connector (VTR) and the VIDEO OUT connector (Video Monitor) simultaneously. See block diagram of this unit on page 26. You can monitor camera picture and playback picture in various ways by selecting each mode (SEQ, PLAY, ELZOOM, and STILL). See page 4 for details about each mode.

To Set the Mode

1. Select the desired mode by pressing the MODE button. (Indicator lights to show selected mode.)

2. After selecting the desired mode, press the SET button. The selected mode indicator goes off and next indicator lights.

mode. These are used only to select the mode. You can check the current mode by setting the parameters of PLAY TITLE, STILL-SEL TITLE ( on SYSTEM SETUP menu), and ZOOM TITLE (on ZOOM SETUP menu) to ON.

You can check which mode is currently selected on the monitor screen: SEQ: When the picture (full size single or quad) is dis-

played sequentially, the current mode is SEQ. See page 17 for details.

PLAY: When the word “PLAY” is displayed, the current

mode is PLAY. To display the word “PLAY”, the setting of PLAY TITLE parameter is required. See page 10 for details.

EL-ZOOM: When the word “ZOOM” is displayed, the

The values for the RS232C site communication setting of this unit are as follows.

Baud Rate: 9 600 Parity Bit: Odd Data Bit: 8 bit Stop Bit: 1 bit

Note: These values are fixed.

● Communication Protocol

• The data format is shown below. [STX] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ETX]

ASCII (02H) ( ) ( ) ( ) (03H)

● Command T able

A transmission command consists of 3 alphanumeric characters following an address. If a command requires a parameter, add a colon (:) after the command. If it needs a second, insert a colon (:) between them. If a command with a parameter has no parameter value specified, it will be processed at the underlined parameter value.

Note:

• When remote controlling this unit by computer through the RS232C port, add the unit address to the transmission com-
