Configuring Switching
Switching provides many of the automated functions
designed to enhance your video surveillance
practices. It allows you to create Salvos and set up
Tours that will run automatically. You can also use
switching to schedule different alarm monitor/contact
tables to become active at different times and days.
Click on the Switching links in the Explore menu to
begin (
Figure 63 on page 32).
Figure 63. Switching links
Creating Salvos
A system Salvo is a group of cameras programmed
to display simultaneously on a contiguous group of
monitors. The MegaPower CPU allows you to create
up to 200 Salvos.
You can place up to 16 cameras in each Salvo, with
each camera having its own dwell time, Preset view,
auxiliary action, and link status. You can also insert a
Salvo as the last entry of a Salvo (in place of a
camera). This “nesting” of a Salvo within a Salvo
expands the number of different camera views.
Click on the Switching – Salvo link in the Explore
menu to begin. The following screen appears.
Figure 64. Salvos Camera tab screen
The Salvos screen is divided into two sections:
The left side, “Salvos,” allows you to create Salvo
numbers and names.
On the right side of the screen, the Cameras tab
section allows you to create the entries, cameras,
and other actions associated with each Salvo.
The Alarm Contacts tab section allows you to
specify the alarm contacts associated with the
highlighted Salvo.
To create a Switching Salvo, complete the following
fields. To create additional Salvos, click on the
asterisk in the header of the last row displaying a
Salvo.
Salvos Number – Enter an identifying number for
a Salvo in the range of 1–9999. If you enter a
Salvo number that already exists, you will be
prompted to choose another Salvo number or
delete the existing one prior to using the value for
a new Salvo definition.
