Configuring HJK7000 UltraKey Plus
Keyboard Controller With Enterprise Alpha
Technical Note
Introduction
This document describes how to connect a Honeywell HJK7000 UltraKey Plus keyboard
controller (HJK7000) to an Enterprise Alpha Viewer workstation (Viewer) to control PTZ
cameras. This provides an optional method of controlling PTZ cameras instead of using a
mouse on the Viewer GUI.
To connect an HJK7000, the Viewer workstation must be licensed with the SCP (Simple Control
Protocol) license in License Manager. The SCP Manager application is used to configure the
Enterprise Alpha NVR system for an external keyboard or other device using a similar protocol.

Modifying the c: \DVMS\scpman.ini File
The Simple Control Protocol (SCP) application is normally hidden; that is, running in the
background. Once the SCP routine is running the user does not need to see the window
associated with SCP control of the system.
To start the SCP, double-click scpman.exe from file folder or Start All programs Alpha
Technology Configuration SCPMan. The application will start but does not open a GUI
window on the desktop. To see the GUI window, double-click scpman.exe a second time.
If you would like to see the GUI window for scpman.exe as soon as it starts, you can modify the
ShowGUI setting in scpman.ini. The default is ShowGUI=0. Change the value from 0 to 1to see
the GUI window when the application starts up.
