Description
KEYBOARDS
Up to 16 keyboards from the KBD100/200/300 Series and 2 keyboards from the KBD960/ KBR960 Series can be connected to the CM6800, allowing monitoring stations that share a common monitor to each have a keyboard. Camera positioning can be programmed and controlled from the KBD200/300 and KBD960/KBR960 Series keyboards. Keyboard types can be mixed in a system. Refer to
SEQUENCES, MACROS, PRESETS, PATTERNS, AND ZONES
Special programmed operations include sequences, macros, and camera control, such as presets, patterns, and zones. All programming (except the scratchpad sequence) is password-protected.
A sequence allows operators to see a routine of 72 camera views on any system monitor over and over again. The sequence can be operated automatically or manually. The order in which the camera views appear and the time each view remains can be programmed.
The CM6800 also provides a scratchpad sequence, which allows a sequence to be run from an individual monitor. The scratchpad sequence can be accessed without entering the password-protected programming menus.
A macro is a sequence of commands or steps. When a macro is run, the steps programmed into that macro are performed. Macros can be operated automatically or manually. Automatic operation can be based on specific times or dates.
The following operations are available only with positionable cameras:
A preset allows operators to direct a PTZ (camera positioning system) to move to a predetermined scene on keyboard command or as a result of an alarm. In addition to moving the camera, a descriptive title can appear on the screen. The number of presets available is determined by the camera positioning system. (Presets are not available with the KBD100 keyboard.)
Associated Equipment
for keyboard descriptions.
With a pattern operators can program a camera positioning system to move around its viewing area in a repeating pattern. The number and time length of patterns varies with different positioning systems. (Patterns are not available with the KBD100 keyboard.)
A zone is a user-defined, physical location to which (1) a label is attached and (2) a camera is associated. When the associated camera is panned through or remains within this defined zone, the zone label appears on the monitor. (Zones are not available with the KBD100 keyboard.)
INTERFACE CONTROL
The CM6800 interfaces with the following:
Coaxitron® standard mode (15-bit) and extended mode (32-bit) protocol receivers
Pelco’s D and P protocol receivers (RS-422)
Pelco’s M protocol devices (RS-485)
PARTIONING AND PRIORITY
The CM6800 provides four ways to partition your system:
Camera to Monitor: Cameras can be assigned to specific monitors for viewing.
Keyboard to Monitor: Keyboards can be assigned to control specific monitors.
Camera to Keyboard:
-Viewing: Keyboards can be assigned view-only access to specific cameras (no PTZ control).
- Control: Keyboards can be assigned PTZ control and viewing access to specific cameras.
The CM6800 provides eight levels of priority control. Each level defines the ability of a keyboard to control a camera positioning system and to access programming screens.
8 Pelco Manual C1515M-A (11/01)
ALARM INPUTS
The CM6800 can accommodate 136 alarm inputs. Eight internal alarm inputs are provided on the rear panel of the matrix switcher/controller.
These internal alarm inputs are programmable to associate any camera to any input. The CM6800 provides numerous alarm handling and display options. For example, alarms
can:
cause a system monitor display to switch automatically to the camera with the alarm.
activate patterns or go to presets.
operate auxiliary outputs. Also, up to two ALM2064 Alarm Interface Units can be connected to the CM6800. Each
alarm interface unit can handle up to 64 alarms, for a total of 128 external alarms.
AUXILIARY OUTPUTS
Three internal auxiliary outputs are provided on the back of the CM6800. Two are relay outputs, and one is an open collector (TTL) output. You can also connect up to two REL2064 Relay Interface Units for a maximum capacity of 128 auxiliaries.
Auxiliary outputs are activated at the keyboard (except KBD100).
POWER, MOUNTING METHODS
The CM6800 operates on 120V or 230V, 50/60 Hz. The case mounts in three rack units (5.25 inches or 13.34 cm) of vertical space in a universal mount, such as a 19-inch (48.26 cm) equipment bay, or to a wall or tabletop.
CONTINUOUS OPERATING DEVICE
The CM6800 is a self-contained video surveillance system designed specifically for use in security applications. As such, the CM6800 is intended for continuous duty operation. Once installed, there are no user or service technician items that require intervention which would require the system to go off-line or have the power turned off under normal operation. There are two methods for system programming: direct menu control and indirect control, using a Windows
®
-based setup program supplied by Pelco. Both of these methods are noninvasive and do not require the cycling of power in order for storage or execution of new software settings. The communication ports use standard low voltage interfaces such as RS-232, RS-422 and RS-485, and all connections and disconnections do not require rebooting or power cycling. Video connections or changes of termination state do not require rebooting or power cycling.

Video Sources

VIDEO SOURCES
The CM6800 offers 48 full-function video inputs which support Coaxitron PTZ control and video loss detection. Forty video inputs, labeled 1 through 40, can be used for looping video connections with terminating and unterminating switches on the back panel. The eight alternate source inputs, labeled 41 through 48, are terminated inputs. They do not have loop-through connectors or selectable termination switches, but otherwise they offer the same functionality as video inputs 1 through 40.
All 48 video inputs also provide the ability to view and interface with other devices, such as Genex multiplexers. If control of the device connected to the video input is required, connect a data cable between the multiplexer and the CM6800. Refer to the
Genex Multiplexers
multiplexer.

CONTROL LINES
You cannot connect a Coaxitron camera to the PTZ-A or PTZ-B ports. If your video sources are all controlled by Coaxitron, skip this section.
Connect camera control lines to receivers. If any of your video sources are using D or P protocol via RS-422 communications, they will connect at the PTZ-A and PTZ-B connectors on the back of the CM6800.
Daisy-chaining (going from one receiver to another) is recommended but not always possible. A maximum of 16 receivers can be daisy-chained from each port. If more than 32 receivers are required for your system, or if you do not want to daisy-chain the receiver connections, use the CM9760-CDU-T. You can connect up to four CM9760-CDU-T units to the CM6800-48X8.

M DEVICES

M protocol devices (KBD960/KBR960 keyboards, ALM2064 Alarm Interface Units, and REL2064 Relay Interface Units) can be connected to COM 3 on the CM6800.
If only one device is to be connected to COM 3, use the instructions for that device in the following sections.
NOTE:
If you wish to use the partitioning and priority features of the CM6800, you must number KBD960/ KBR960 keyboards within a range of 1-8.
If more than one device is to be connected to COM 3, refer to the
Multiple M Devices
section. Connect M devices to the CM6800 with straight cables. Four straight cables and one
reversed cable are supplied with the CM6800 (save the reversed cable for connecting a Genex Multiplexer, if applicable).
M Devices Addressing
Each M device connected to the CM6800 must have a unique local address within a range of 1-16. Use the hardware DIP switches to set the appropriate ALM2064 and REL2064 local addresses. Specify the appropriate KBD960/KBR960 local address through the keyboard Setup Mode after you complete the system installation (refer to the
Up
section).
For use with the CM6800, Pelco recommends numbering M devices in a sequential order. In a sample application, with two of each M device, you might assign local addresses as follows:

LOCAL AUXILIARIES

The CM6800 provides three local auxiliary (AUX) outputs on the rear panel for controlling VCRs, printers, and other devices. These outputs can be activated directly from a keyboard by using the F1, F2, and F3 function keys, or they can be activated by an alarm (deter­mined by programming). Both relay contacts and TTL outputs are used.
In addition, you can connect up to two REL2064 Relay Interface Units to the CM6800. Note that since operation of the three internal auxiliary relays on the CM6800 will also operate the first three relays on the external unit, the maximum capacity of the system may be limited to 128 auxiliaries (depending on how you number the external relays). Refer to the
Connecting a Single REL2064 Relay Interface Unit
CONNECTING RELAY CONTACTS – AUX 1 AND 2
AUX 1 and 2 are dry contact relay outputs. Refer to Figure 25 for wiring details. Terminal connections are provided for both normally open (N.O.) and normally closed (N.C.) contacts.
Do not exceed the voltage and current ratings for the relay contacts. You will need to provide an external power source to operate your device. In most cases
you will also need an external current limiting resistor. The formula for calculating the resistor value is given in Figure 25.

CONNECTING THE OPEN COLLECTOR OUTPUT – F3 (TTL)
F3 is a TTL open collector output. This output provides a path to ground to control the low voltage trigger input on many devices. It can control higher voltage control inputs via isolation relays. Refer to Figure 26 for wiring details.
Do not exceed the voltage and current ratings for the TTL output. An external pull-up resistor is usually necessary. The formula for calculating the resistor
value is given in Figure 26.

SYSTEM START-UP

00620
After completing the system installation, follow the procedure below to start proper system operation. Skip any “system-specific” steps that do not apply to your system setup.

POWER-UP THE SYSTEM

Plug the CM6800 power cord into a 120/230V, 50/60 Hz power source. Plug in and turn on all devices connected to the CM6800.
Once the system is powered-up you will see video from camera 1 and the following time/ date stamp on all system monitors:
The time stamp will be advancing in one-second increments. Wait five seconds before proceeding.

Figure 26. CM6800 Time/Date Stamp on Monitor

INITIALIZE KEYBOARDS

You must specify a monitor for each keyboard after your first power-up or any time power is cycled to the keyboard or the CM6800.
Always allow five seconds to elapse before specifying a monitor.
1. Enter a number (1-8) corresponding to the monitor output that is feeding the monitor you are viewing.
2. Press the MON key. The keyboard LED displays the number you entered. This also confirms successful communication between the keyboard and the CM6800. If the keyboard LED does not display the monitor number, repeat 1 and 2.
If you are unable to select the monitor, refer to the

CONFIGURE THE SYSTEM

If necessary, configure the CM6800 and associated equipment to your specific application. The CM6800 is shipped from the factory with default programming settings. If the defaults are acceptable, the CM6800 can be operated without any user programming. However, you may want to program the basic system settings, such as time and date, and camera titles. In addition, some or all of the following configuration steps may be necessary, depending on your system.
Configure the CM6800 through Programming mode. Refer to the detailed instructions.

ALARM CONTACTS

The CM6800 provides a wide variety of alarm handling and display options. Alarmed cameras can be displayed on one or several monitors as part of one or several alarm groups (each monitor can display only one alarm group.) You can also customize the system to handle alarms in the following ways:
the order in which alarms are displayed
automatic or manual acknowledgement of alarms
activation of auxiliaries by alarms
automatic activation of presets or patterns
N.O. or N.C. operation
priority assignment
Before programming alarm settings, verify that no automated system functions are set to run, such as a macro that would arm or disarm an alarm. Ensure that system operators do not arm or disarm any alarms while you are programming the alarm settings. If an alarm is triggered while you are in the CM6800 programming screens, or while programming a pattern, preset or zone, the system will exit the on-screen programming function and display the alarm on the appropriate monitor(s).
When programming an alarm to appear on a specific monitor, verify that the monitor has access to the camera view triggered by the alarm. Partitioning has priority over alarm programming, so if an alarm is cued to a monitor that does not have access to the appropriate cameras, the camera views cannot be monitored.
Alarm Contact Programming Tasks
To configure the CM6800 internal alarm contacts you must access the Alarm Contact screen to complete the following minimum tasks:
Enable the alarm contact.
Specify at least one camera step with a dwell greater than zero for each alarm contact.
Assign the alarm to at least one alarm group.
Alarm
Programming
The following alarm handling options are set by factory default:
Acknowledgement type = manual
•Time out = 10 seconds
Alarm sensor type = N.O. (normally open)
Priority level = 0
Alarm group display option = Block Build To change these defaults, or to configure external alarm contacts, refer to the following
sections for detailed programming instructions.
Alarm Group Display Options
To display on a monitor, an alarm must be assigned to an alarm group (A-H). Before programming alarms you may want to determine the alarm display format for each alarm group. An alarm can include up to eight steps, so eight camera views could display as a part of each alarm.
A priority alarm appears on system monitors before non-priority alarms, despite the order specified by the alarm group assignment. In the examples below, all alarms are at the same priority level. Refer to the PRIORITY description in
Program Internal and External Alarms
.
42 Pelco Manual C1515M-A (11/01)
BLOCK BUILD
Alarmed cameras are displayed across a block of alarm monitors in a sequential order. All steps programmed for the alarm contact appear on the designated monitor.

04 D 1st alarm 1st alarm 1st alarm 1st alarm 05 Q 2nd alarm 2nd and 3rd 2nd, 3rd, and 4th
alarms cycle alarms cycle
You must acknowledge alarms in a chronological pair from the display monitor (D). Then the next oldest alarm moves to the display monitor and the remaining alarms continue to cycle through the queue monitor (Q). This format requires you to acknowledge each alarm in the order in which they occur.

REVERSE CHRONOLOGICAL PAIR: M AND L
The most recent alarm of a specific group is displayed on one designated monitor, while all other alarms in the group are sequenced on the second designated monitor. All steps programmed for the alarm contact appear on the designated monitor.
Example: Four alarms set to display on monitors 06 and 07 will appear in the following order:
Monitor 1 Alarm 2 Alarms 3 Alarms 4 Alarms
06 M 1st alarm 2nd alarm 3rd alarm 4th alarm 07 L 1st alarm 1st and 2nd 1st, 2nd, and 3rd

You must acknowledge alarms in a reverse chronological pair from the display monitor (M). Then the next most recent alarm moves to the display monitor and the remaining alarms continue to cycle through the queue monitor (L). This format requires you to acknowledge each alarm in the reverse order from which they occurred.

SALVO SWITCHING
Multiple camera views within the alarm contact programming (the “steps”) are displayed simultaneously as a group across a set of monitors. When a new alarm triggers, all monitors switch to the new alarm at the same time.
When programming a Salvo Group:
•Program the Salvo Group to display across a number of monitors equal to the number of steps in the alarm contact(s); for example if the alarm contact has six steps, set the Salvo Group to display on six monitors. If an alarm contact contains more steps than monitors defined for the Salvo Group, the additional steps do not appear on a monitor during the alarm.
•Each alarm contact assigned to the Salvo Group should contain the same number of steps.
The Salvo Group switches based on the dwell time entered for the first step in the alarm contact.
Example: Two alarm contacts with three steps display on three monitors will appear as follows:

Internal and External Alarms
Use the Internal Alarm screen to configure the eight internal alarm inputs on the rear panel of the matrix switcher/controller; internal inputs are programmable to associate any camera to any input. When an internal alarm is triggered, the alarm icon and an “I” appear on designated system monitors.
Use the External Alarm screen to configure the alarm inputs on external devices; up to 128 additional inputs are available by connecting up to two ALM2064 Alarm Interface Units. When an external alarm is triggered, the alarm icon and an “E” appear on designated system monitors.
The procedure for programming internal and external alarms is the same, except for selecting the alarm input type (the TYPE field on the Internal Alarm screen). Set the external alarm input type (N.O. or N.C.) through the ALM2064 Alarm Interface Unit. Refer to the ALM2064 Alarm Interface Unit Installation/Operation Manual for instructions.

EVENT TIMERS

You can automate system operation to activate sequences or macros on specific monitors. Events can be scheduled on a daily or weekly basis, or on a specific date such as a holiday. If you set more than one timer to start at the same time, the timers will run in the following order of precedence: weekly, special, daily.
On each event timer screen:
•Two methods are provided for selecting the event time: scrolling through time values or entering a valid hour and minute.
Each timer can activate either a macro or a sequence. Select a value for either the MACRO field or the SEQ field.
•A macro started by an event timer runs until the last step is completed (unless you specify a loop in the macro).
•A sequence started by an event timer runs continuously until another sequence or macro begins, or until a system operator selects a different camera.
Daily Timer
Use the Daily Timer screen to schedule up to 32 daily events.

LOGICAL CAMERA NUMBERS

A logical number is a user-selectable, variable number, and is always associated with an actual physical input. A physical input number represents an actual BNC input on the rear panel of the CM6800 and is a fixed number. Within the programming screens and at the operator level the logical number is the number used for reference.
Example of a logical numbering plan:
Physical input number Location in store Logical number
Cameras 1-5 First floor 11-15 Cameras 6-12 Second floor 21-27
Use the Logical Camera screen to assign new logical numbers as appropriate for your system.

PRIORITY CONTROL

The CM6800 provides eight levels of priority control. Each level defines the ability of a keyboard to control a pan/tilt/zoom (camera positioning system) and to access program­ming screens.
Priority level applies system wide; a keyboard assigned priority level 2 on COM port 8 has a higher priority than a keyboard assigned priority level 4 on COM port 5. A higher level keyboard takes precedence over a lower level keyboard when the keyboards are issuing control commands.
NOTE:
Y ou can connect only one ASCII keyboard/de­vice per port on the CM6800 (COM port 1, 2, 4, 7, or 8). For ASCII keyboards priority control is based on the entry for keyboard 1.

ASCII OPERATING COMMANDS

ASCII protocol uses the ASCII character set to transmit and receive commands between a personal computer (PC) and the CM6800. The commands are readable but are not English.
ASCII commands control the pan and tilt mechanisms (fixed and variable speed), camera functions, auxiliary relays, and alarms.
The ASCII protocol communicates in a standard asynchronous, byte-oriented protocol that includes: 1 start bit, 8 data bits, 1 parity bit (odd parity), and 1 stop bit. The default communication rate is 9600 baud.
A lowercase “a” ends each command. The ASCII translator acknowledges accepted commands and rejected commands with the following responses:
AKa command accepted NAa command rejected or the ASCII translator does not recognize the command
If the command requires a numeric value, enter the number first. Table I provides examples of ASCII commands. Table J lists all of the commands.

NEXT key (+) and PREV key (-) commands switch to the next numbered camera in the system.
Starts the selected sequence going forward (incrementing camera numbers).
Starts the selected sequence going backward (decrementing camera numbers).
Places the running sequence on hold, freezing the currently selected camera on the monitor. It lets you control the camera or switch. The sequence is still “armed” on the monitor, but inactive.
Places the running macro on hold. Moves the currently selected pan and tilt device left or right at the speed
indicated. If you omit the speed, some devices move at their default speed and others move at their slowest possible speed. Speed information has no effect on fixed speed devices.
Moves the currently selected pan and tilt device up or down at the speed indicated. If you omit the speed, some devices move at their default speed and others move at their slowest possible speed. Speed information has no effect on fixed speed devices.
Makes the currently selected camera zoom in (close up view) or zoom out (wide view).
Changes the good focus range nearer or farther on the currently selected camera.
Opens (brighter image) or closes (darker image) the iris on the currently selected camera.
Stops all image motion (stops pan, tilt, zoom, focus, and iris). Does not stop a pattern.
On receivers that do patterns, these commands let you record your motions and operations (for a limited time) and then have the system repeat them.
Recalls a stored preset position. Sets a preset location with an embedded label, where the ASCII string
must be UPPERCASE characters. The [string] is an alphanumeric label up to 20 characters long and

SOFTWARE RESET

Pelco strongly recommends uploading system settings to the CM6800-MGR before the software reset – this will allow you to restore system settings after the software reset.
1. Remove the two screws and the DIP switch cover plate from the rear of the switcher.
2. Move DIP switch 7 to the ON position (to “0”).
3. Cycle power. The switcher will go through a
software clear cycle and reset to factory defaults.
4. Move DIP switch 7 to the OFF position. Failure to move DIP switch 7 to the
OFF position could result in loss of system settings during a power outage.
5. Re-initialize keyboards by entering the monitor number and then pressing the MON key.
6. Download your previous system settings (revise settings as necessary) from the CM6800-MGR.

standard used for data communication; the normal connection distance is 50 feet (15 m). Pelco uses this standard for communication from a controller to a PC or RS-232 network. The Pelco three-wire connection provides one wire for transmit, one wire for receive, and one wire for common.
RS-422 This is an Electronics Industry Association (EIA) interface
standard. Pelco uses this standard for communication from a controller to one or more camera receivers (on the same line); the maximum recommended distance is 4,000 feet (1,219 m).
The four-wire connection provides two wires for transmit and two wires for receive. Pelco receiver/driver communication uses only the two transmit wires (commands are sent from the controller to the receiver only; the receiver does not “talk” back to the controller). Pelco keyboard communication uses all four wires.
NOTE:
The electrical communication scheme used by Pelco is a direct-coupled method, not an AC-coupled method. Therefore, if the ground potential of the wire at its two end points is different (other than zero volts), an additional wire is required as a ground.

RS-485 This is an Electronics Industry Association (EIA) interface
standard used for communication between multiple transmitters and receivers; the maximum recommended distance is 4,000 feet (1,219 m). The four-wire connection provides two wires for transmit and two wires for receive.

When connecting PTZ cameras to a matrix switcher, for example, the central device can be a code distribution unit, such as the CM9760-CDU-T. Each camera has a direct connection to the CM9760-CDU-T, which is the central device.
from either the CM6800-MGR software or the CM6800 Matrix Switcher on-screen programming menus, you could potentially have different settings in the two programming sources. Pelco recommends transmitting any programming changes from the updated programming source so that the next time you make changes from either programming source, you will be modifying the current system settings.
