3. PROGRAMMABLE FEATURES
The Dedicated Micros 2060/2040 Dome Camera's have a number of features which can be
selected by the System Supervisor when the dome is installed. Any of these can be altered
subsequently, or cancelled altogether, to give the best operational responses for any particular
application. They are invoked or cancelled through on-screen menu structures, described in section
4, and the settings are then retained in non-volatile memory so that they are not affected by a loss
of power.
The features, and what they offer, are described below:
3.1 Preset Positions
Up to 200 (2060) or 100 (2040) positions can be stored and recalled at any time. Each position
stores the Pan, Tilt, Zoom, and Focus positions as well as the position title.
3.2 Preset Position Titles
Each preset position title can have up to 20 alphanumeric characters to identify the associated
position uniquely. The default title position lies at the top left hand corner of the video picture, left
justified, but this can be altered if required.
The preset position titles only appear at the position they identify: any movement from that position
will remove them.
3.3 Tours
Up to 100 (2060) or 50 (2040) tours can be stored and recalled at any time. Each tour can contain
up to 16 positions together with a ‘Dwell’ time at each position plus the ‘Travel Time’ that the dome
unit must take to reach the next position. When the last position in the tour is reached, the tour
‘loops’ back to the first position.
3.4 Real Time Clock (Not applicable to the 2040)
The 2060 dome camera is fitted with a real time clock to provide time and date marks for the
operator and the recording system if required. A range of selectable formats can provide time and
date displays and the unit is able to use the information to provide enhanced alarm functions where
the reaction to an alarm can be modified depending on the time of day or the day of the week.
3.5 Alarm Response
Up to 100 (2060) or 50 (2040) Alarm responses can be stored. Each alarm response creates a
specified reaction to an alarm number. This is a very powerful feature, allowing a number of domes,
or any other device conforming to the Dennard/DM protocol, to invoke a pre-set alarm action from
one single loop broadcast command.
2040 / 2060 Menu System Manual Page. 7

3.6 Bottom Flip
The dome will automatically pan through 180 degrees as fast as possible when tilted fully down so
that it is possible to follow a person or car, moving directly underneath the dome, with only a single
joystick direction to consider.
3.7 Camera Mode
The camera in both 2060 and 2040 can be switched between colour and monochrome mode. In the
2060 it can be selected as colour/mono in which case it will automatically switch to mono when the
light level is insufficient for good quality colour pictures.
3.8 Digital Zoom Extension
The camera system allows an extension of the optical zoom by selecting more of the central part of
the picture and expanding this to fill the frame. This feature is selectable.
3.9 Dome Selection Cursor
The menu structure itself, and the choices and selections offered, are searched and invoked by a
single cursor or flashing character and the direction in which this moves depends on the particular
control panel in use. The direction of movement can be reversed separately for horizontal and
vertical movement if required.
3.10 Text Positioning and Selection
All text can be positioned where it is wanted, replaced with default text (eg: Position 31, or Sector
18), or removed as required.
3.11 Joystick Range
Even if the control panel has a wide range proportional joystick output, the Dedicated Micros Dome
has such a wide speed range that both a fast and a slow speed range are needed to realise the full
performance (provided of course that the control panel in question has a facility to invoke these
separately).
The slow speed range is simply the same as the fast speed range following the same in-built
correlation law, but divided by a constant. This constant can be set between 2 and 128.
3.12 Host polling
When the dome is configured for communication using RS485 protocols it can be set to check its
communication link at regular intervals. If a continuous data stream is expected from the controller,
enabling Host Polling will get the dome to report a communications error if nothing is received for 5
seconds. Normally, this setting is disabled.
2040 / 2060 Menu System Manual Page. 8

3.13 Error Reporting
The Dedicated Micros Dome constantly monitors its own health and is able to indicate that a
problem has occurred by a flashing square in the top right hand corner of the transmitted picture.
The cause can subsequently be requested when convenient. Alternatively, the unit can display the
error text instead of the flashing square.
3.14 Activity light
A green LED provides some diagnostic help when first switching the dome on and also indicates
when command signals are received. As it may be visible externally it can be switched on or off.
3.15 User Timeout
There is a possibility that the dome may be left pointing at an unhelpful scene and, for whatever
reason, ‘forgotten’. To cater for this eventuality, two settings have the specific function of acting to
prevent this happening. These are Preset 001 and Tour 001.
A time delay can be set between 1 and 999 seconds and a default response to the timeout being
reached also defined. If the time is exceeded after any joystick/key entry Pan and Tilt input at the
Control Panel then the default action will occur.
If a delay time of 0 is set, no default action will occur and the unit will wait indefinitely for the next
user input.
If a Dome menu screen is left waiting for an input for more than 3 minutes then the system times
out and the dome resumes its previous activity.
3.16 Set Video Amplification
This facility allows the video gain to be adjusted from the normal setting, with four levels available.
Video lift can be tuned on or off and is normally set to the Off position.
3.17 Privacy mode
It is sometimes desirable to prevent operators from viewing certain areas. To meet this requirement
the Privacy mode allows black patches to be set up to cover these areas.
The size of the patch overlaid is the size of the monitor view at whatever zoom setting is used.
When zooming out, the patch reduces in size so that it only covers the original area.
2040 / 2060 Menu System Manual Page. 9

4. OPERATION WITH A CONTROL PANEL
NB: This will vary between control panels. Please refer to the Controller manual.
The Dome Camera's are an open protocol device. Consequently, there are several different
manufacturers’ controllers available to drive it. All of the many features offered by the dome are
programmed from one of three menu structures. Each controller will have individual control
configurations which make it essential that the user reads the controller manual to ascertain which
button activation gives access to the menu features. Section 6 gives these functions for several
popular controllers.
The following instructions will guide you through the menu structure when using the Dome & PSU
(with address set to No. 253… DEN PANEL) controlled by either a Dennard/DM dtx400dc or
dtx1000dc
4.1 Dome Menu Structure with Dennard/DM controllers
The Menus appear on the screen when activated by the following commands:
Note that the ‘shift’ key must be held down while the selection is made.
On activation, the menu will appear on the monitor screen against the normal video scene
background with a cursor on the left hand edge. A choice is made by positioning the cursor over the
desired feature and operating an “ACCEPT” button(s) which, for the Dennard/DM controllers, is as
follows:-
For dtx1000dc, hold the preset button and press CAMERA SELECT 1
For dtx 400dc, press preset 1 button
2040 / 2060 Menu System Manual Page. 10
dtx1000dc access dtx400dc access
User Menu shift wash shift 1
Supervisor Menu (password required) shift wipe shift 2
Technicians Menu (password required) shift autopan shift 3

4.2 Main Menu
When called, the Main Menu screen will display the following options, against a camera display
background, with a cursor at the left hand edge:
Using the joystick, or direction arrow keys, move up or down the list to select the feature required
then press the appropriate key(s) to accept/select it. If ‘Exit’ is chosen the menu is cleared and no
other action is taken by the dome.
4.2.1 Go to Preset or Start Tour
These selections allow the operator to recall the full range of stored Preset positions and Tours,
even if the control panel has neither the numerical range nor general ability to do so.
Note that this screen only allows existing preset positions and tours to be accessed. To set
up new presets or tours, see section 4.3.1 or 4.3.2
The display will prompt for the required numerical entry with the following subsidiary menu:
The cursor can be moved across the numerical line, using the joystick or control buttons, until the
desired number is reached. The characters will flash their position in turn and, as soon as one is
selected with the ACCEPT button(s), will be displayed in the _ _ _ part of the display.
Leading zeros need not be entered (eg 001 may be entered simply as ‘1’) but the entry must be
within range, eg 001 - 250 for Presets and 001 - 100 for Tours (2060) and 001 - 100 for Presets
and 001 - 50 for Tours (2040). Entries outside the range will cause an ‘Illegal Entry’ message to
flash, and the entry must be cleared and re-entered.
When the digits have been selected, Accept Entry will invoke that choice and the screen will
automatically clear to the desired camera position.

To change the choice, ‘Clear Entry’ will start the process again.
Note that Preset number 1 and Tour number 1 should be allocated to the most common or
important views. These values are the ones to which the dome automatically returns
following a power cut if no operator is in attendance. See the section on power fail, sec
4.4.2.
4.2.2 PIN number entry
When the Technician or Supervisor menu is called the following screen appears. The password
or PIN Number is keyed in using the same method as used with previous entries.
The cursor is run across the numerical line, using the joystick or control buttons, until the desired
number is reached. The characters will flash their position in turn and as soon as one is selected
with the ACCEPT button(s) it will be displayed in the _ _ _ _ part of the display.
When all four digits have been selected, Accept Entry will invoke that choice and the screen will
automatically change to the selected menu i.e. the Technician or Supervisor menu.

4.3 Supervisor Menu
The SUPERVISOR MENU allows the supervisor not only to duplicate the operator menu functions,
but also to programme Preset positions (with their identifying title) and Tours. Additionally, cursor
setting and text positioning and selection are accessed here.
The functions are split into a series of underlying menus in ‘layers’. When returning from most
underlying menus, the overlying menu is re-presented. The functions which are less likely to be
needed lie deeper in the structure.
The Supervisor Menu displays:
4.3.1 Store/Edit Preset
The first option enables the supervisor to define a view (including pan, tilt and zoom settings) and
store it for future recall. Note that storing a Preset requires that the desired camera view is already
visible when this screen is entered. Selecting this option calls up the following underlying screens.
Selecting the preset number is achieved as with the previous numerical entry screens. When the
number is accepted, a new display will allow the supervisor to give this position a name (such as
‘Main Gate’ or ‘Front Door’) or use the default names stored in the dome software. The screen will
prompt with:

Select ‘No’ to use the default names or ‘Yes’ to enter a new name through the following screen.
The title choice is made as usual with the cursor and accepted when ready (which will store the
chosen Title with the stored Preset position). Backspace allows a correction to be made while
‘Return without change’ will store the Preset position with the default title. The title appears in the _
_ space as it is compiled.
Note that the _’s shown here only indicate where this happens - they do not appear on the
screen
4.3.2 Store/Edit Tour
A Tour is a predefined journey taken by the camera, between a number of Preset positions. Before
accessing this facility, ensure that all the required Preset positions have been stored, as shown in
section 4.3.1. Choosing to program a Tour first requires the Tour Number to be entered in an
identical procedure to selecting a Position (except that the range must lie between 001 and 100).
Once the number has been accepted, a subsidiary menu is displayed:
If a tour has already been established on this number its initial data is displayed as ‘Old’. This data
can be edited by adding new values or a new tour can be established.
Here the entry format follows the now-familiar procedure but the _ _ _ characters have specific
functions: The first three characters, PPP, represent a Preset position number. ‘DD’ is the dwell
time that the camera must spend stationary at that position and ‘SS’ represents the time that the
camera must take to reach the next position in the tour. The times are entered as seconds,
between 01 and 99. If no value is entered, the Tour will use the default values of 2 seconds dwell
time and 3 seconds travel time.
When all characters are completed and then accepted, the display clears the entry ready to receive
the next position information and the ‘Item’ counter is incremented. When all entries are complete,
select the ‘Store Tour’ instruction.

4.3.3 Alarm Setup
Alarms are inputs into the dome which require the dome to undertake a specific action. They may
come from a number of external sources, such as door entry systems or PIR motion sensors. The
2060 dome has a clock function that enables the supervisor to select different actions depending on
the time of day or the day of the week. This clock function is not available in the 2040, go to section
4.3.3.1. The Alarm Setup screen provides access to three options:
4.3.3.1 Alarm Action Setup
On selecting this function the supervisor must select an alarm number in the usual way with the
following screen:
Accepting the Alarm number brings up the following screen:
This allows a specified preset position P or tour T to be stored, along with its identification number
‘nnn’ which will be implemented when the alarm is activated. To select an option, use the code ‘01’
for Tour or ‘10’ for Preset (the 1 under the P or T selects its use; 11 is invalid). Accepting the entry
will increment the alarm number allowing all inputs to have an action allocated to them or their
existing action, shown as ‘Old’, modified. The alarm action will be sustained for a duration set by
the user timeout (see section 4.3.4.1).

4.3.3.2 Mask Alarms (Not Applicable to 2040)
Alarm responses can be modified, depending on when they are activated. Selecting this facility will
bring up the following screen:
The letters displayed indicate:
MTWTFSS Monday to Sunday
H Holiday
hhmm Time of ‘Mask On’
hhmm Time of ‘Mask Off’
Entering a ‘1’ under a day of the week means that the alarms will be masked – i.e. they will not
cause a response from the dome – on that day. Similarly, a ‘1’ under the Holiday means that the
alarm is masked on specified holidays (note that the setting for a holiday will override the setting for
a day of the week). The mask will operate throughout the days selected unless a mask on and off
time are entered. This is achieved through numerical entry of the time using the 24hr clock. The
mask temporarily disables all connected alarms.
For example, if motion sensors have been connected into the dome but are only required to
operate outside of normal working hours they can be masked by entering the code
‘1111100008301800’. This masks the alarms on Mon – Fri between 08.30 a.m and 6 p.m. Outside
these times, and at the weekends and on holidays, the dome will respond to the alarms as desired.
To add complete flexibility, up to ten levels of configuration are available, indicated by the ‘Item
number’ on the screen. As each entry is accepted the number increments until the full action is
saved. Secondary levels allow different masking times to be selected on different days. In the
example above, it may be that the building closes early on Friday. To achieve the different times,
the first code (item) would be modified to ‘1111000008301800’ and a second item code entered as
‘0000100008301400’. Now, the first mask only applies from Monday to Thursday while the second
level masks the alarms on Fridays, between 8.30 a.m. and 2 p.m. More complex masks can be built
up using the same logic for more variations.
4.3.3.3 Select Holidays (Not Applicable to 2040)
Up to 15 days can be programmed in as holidays, to cover periods such as Christmas or Bank
Holidays, when the alarm action may require modification. When the option is selected the following
screen is displayed:
