Softkeys
Softkeys are keys used by the operator, the function of which can vary with regard to current mode of operation and overall
configuration.
The use of softkeys allows the installer to tailor an installation to the exact needs of an operator. Commands and menus that
are not applicable to (or allowed by) an operator can be removed from an operators menus but left on the managers menus,
providing an optimised display reflecting the operations carried out by different users of the CCTV operator.
Each menu consists of a series of commands that can be assigned to specific softkeys. The menus are navigated using the
following keys:
•Back
Displays previous menu screen.
•Next
Displays next menu screen. If no more menu screens, returns to the first menu screen.
•Back held down
Exits the current menu.
For each menu the configuration of softkeys can be modified for each of the 3 operator types.

Log-on and Log-off Procedure
The ZVK-77D supports 49 users, each of which can be configured to belong to one of the 3 operator groups:
•User
•Manager
•Engineer
Operator control priority can be set on an individual user basis.
Use of an external joystick, e.g. for a left handed user, can be set on an individual user basis.
Menu configuration is by operator group.
The ZVK-77 comes with three default users already configured:
User Name Operator Group Password
Default User User 1111
Default Manager Manager 2222
Default Engineer Engineer 3333
If all passwords codes with Engineering access are lost, users cannot be configured and the keyboard must be reset back to
factory settings. Contact our technical support line for advice on this procedure.
Log-on
Before the keyboard can be used an operator has to log-on by selecting their user name and entering a PIN. To log-on follow
the procedure below.

4. You should now be Logged onto the keyboard. If the error message Login Incorrect appears, simply repeat steps 1
to 3.
If enabled the operator can be given 3 attempts to correctly login. If the operator fails then the keyboard must be powered on
for 10 minutes before another logon can be attempted.
Log-off
Every time you exit a menu you will hear a confirmation beep from the keyboard. Press the Enter key to log yourself off the
ZVK-77D or press the Clear key to remain logged-on.

Selecting sites, cameras and monitors
As CCTV systems have grown both in size and complexity it has become a requirement to partition cameras into
areas. These areas are often based on geographical location, Meyertech refer to these as SITES.
Each SITE has its own independent range of cameras
The ZVK-77D plays a role in this by allowing the operator to select sites and cameras as simply as possible.
To select a Monitor.
01. Press the Softkey directly adjacent to the menu option, Select Monitor.
02. Now enter a monitor in the range 1 – 999 using the Numeric Keypad followed by Enter.
This operation does not have to be done prior to every switch – it is only required when you wish to change which monitor
you want to control.
To select a Site.
01. Press the Softkey directly adjacent to the menu option, Select Site.
02. Now enter a site in the range 0 – 255 using the Numeric Keypad followed by Enter.
03. Input a camera in the range 0 – 9999 using the Numeric Keypad followed by Enter.
Note that Site 0 is always the site you are at, it is your local site and is equivalent to operating the keyboard in Classic mode.
This operation does not have to be done prior to every switch – it is only required when you wish to change which site you
want to view a camera from.
Trunk selection is automatic on selecting a site.
To select a Camera.
In the keyboards idle state (ie you are not in the process of entering a command) all numeric entries on the keyboard are
assumed to be cameras selections.
01. Enter a camera in the range 0 – 9999 using the Numeric Keypad followed by Enter.
To select an adjacent camera
If the adjacent cameras are numbered sequentially, they can be quickly selected by increasing and decreasing the current
camera number.
01. If the menu options, Camera Up and Camera Down are not currently displayed, use the Next key to find them.
02. Press the Camera Up key to select the next camera number, or Camera Down to select the previous.

To copy an image to another monitor.
Images displayed on your spot monitor can be copied directly to a nominated monitor designated the Relay Monitor.This is
a common requirement in town and city centre schemes.
01. If the menu option, Relay Monitor is not currently displayed, use the Next key to find it.
02. Press the Softkey directly adjacent to the menu option, Relay Monitor
To select a Trunk
Trunks are video trunks linking one site to another site. Both sites would normally incorporate a video matrix with a number of
the remote sites video outputs being designated trunks. At the local site these trunks connect as inputs into the local video
matrix.
The select Trunk function is only used to select a specific trunk. Normally trunk selection is done automatically by the ZoneVu
system when the operator selects a remote site.
01. Press the Softkey directly adjacent to the menu option, Select Trunk
02. Now enter a TRUNK in the range 1 – 999 using the Numeric Keypad followed by Enter
To select the Next Trunk
Next Trunk operates in a similar manner to Select Trunk. The difference being that Next Trunk selects the next available
trunk rather than a specific trunk.
01. Press the Softkey directly adjacent to the menu option, Next Trunk.
