Programming Presets
Using the keyboard, select the monitor and dome
camera, then move the trolley to the desired
location and define the preset.
Programming Patterns
Patterns are a series of pan, tilt, zoom, and
position settings (including the trolley position on
the rail). For each dome on a trolley, you can
program up to three patterns with each containing
up to 98 commands and lasting no more than 6
minutes, 50 seconds.
Using the keyboard, select the monitor and dome
camera, then move the trolley to the desired
location and define and store the pattern.
Patrol Mode
Patrol Mode (Pattern #3) moves the trolley 1.5m/s
(4.92ft/s) the length of the rail 10 times, flipping the
position of the camera each time it reverses.
CAUTION: DO NOT use Pattern #3 as
part of a sequence. Patrol Mode is
dedicated to Pattern #3. Reprogramming
Pattern #3 will delete Patrol Mode
permanently.
CAUTION: Avoid using the Patrol Mode
for prolonged periods as it may affect
your warranty and service schedule.
Preventive maintenance is not included
in the warranty agreement.
VM96 Matrix Switcher: Place the trolley and dome
in the pattern starting position. While programming
a pattern, use Focus NEAR and FAR keys to drive
the trolley (even if the SensorRail software was set
up to use the Iris CLOSE and OPEN keys).
Sequences
Sequences are a series of camera scenes that
display one after another on a monitor for a
specified duration. Scenes included in the
sequence are called events, and the number of
events available for programming depends on the
matrix switcher.
System Limitations:
• The maximum duration for an event in the
sequence is 90 seconds for the ADTT16E.
• When trolley movement is included in a
sequence, the trolley requires time to move to
another position, whereas the dome switches to
its position immediately. When creating a
sequence, allow time for trolley movement. For
example, a trolley takes 19 seconds to move
across a 50m (164ft) rail.
Avoid using sequences for prolonged
periods as it may affect your warranty
and service schedule. Preventive
maintenance is not included in the
warranty agreement.
Auxiliary Output Functions
The following Aux outputs toggle functions in the
trolley.
• Aux 1: Invokes a soft reset in the trolley. It is
used only if the trolley is non-responsive or
abnormal behavior occurs. In some cases,
several pan/tilt commands need to be sent to
the dome to configure the proper protocol being
used. This is normal. Turn Aux 1 off when done.
• Aux 2: Displays the trolley distance traveled (in
km) and software version on the video monitor
for about 5 seconds using the dome text
overlay. Turn off Aux 2 when done.
• Aux 3 or Aux 4: Use to access the dome menu
system. Turn on one of these Aux outputs
depending on the matrix switcher and protocol
used. Go into the menu system and turn off Aux
3 or Aux 4 when done.
• Switching all Aux outputs off: Clears the
condition when the matrix switcher is in another
Aux state other than the dome Aux state (the
dome was reset or power reset but not the
matrix switcher).
Auxiliary output functions can be performed from
any AD keyboard or Touch Tracker.
Airborne Noise Measurements
The continuous sound level falls below 70dB. This
device has been tested and is deemed to have
passed the Machinery Directive.
