About the MegaPower 168 Matrix Switcher/Controller System The MegaPower 168 (AD168) Matrix Switcher/ Controller System is an integrated CCTV matrix switching and control system for CCTV surveillance systems with multiple video inputs, outputs, and control stations. Video inputs are typically provided by local or remote cameras and other video sources. Video output is viewed on monitors, or recorded on VCRs or digital video recorders located at system control points. In addition to providing video input and output switching, the AD168 system can respond to alarms and perform auxiliary switching for the control of gates, doors, lights, and other output devices. Depending on the control requirements of a given application, various AD keyboards and accessory devices can be used in concert with the system bays, cameras, and monitors.

The AD168 Matrix Switcher/Controller System is designed to support plug-in modules having a broad range of functionality. Plug-in modules include:

• Power Supply module • Central Processing module (CPM) • Video Input modules • Video Output modules • Optional Control Code modules Built-in expansion capabilities permit the addition of a second AD168 Bay to increase the number of video output devices supported.

External communications to system devices can be achieved through a variety of protocols, including Manchester Control Code, RS-232, RS-422, and SensorNet. A parallel printer port is standard with each AD168 system to provide printed copies of operating parameters and alarm events.

About the ADTTE Keyboard Controller The ADTTE keyboard is a video control station that is compatible with the AD168 matrix switcher/ controller systems. The keyboard provides the following operating modes: Operate, Program, and Menu.

Operate mode does not require password privileges and provides the following functions:

• Monitor and camera selection

Pattern Programming You can program up to three patterns per SpeedDome programmable dome. The length and complexity of a pattern are limited by two variables:

• The number of available camera commands • Time Each time you move the camera in any direction (with zoom, focus, or iris adjustments), you issue a command to the camera. The three patterns for a dome can collectively consist of up to 98 camera commands.

There is also a pattern time limit. A single pattern cannot have a duration longer than 400 seconds. Regardless of the number of commands issued, a pattern stops recording once the time limit has elapsed.

Note: Verify that the keyboard is in programming mode before performing this task. See Unlock/Lock the Keyboard on page 13.

To program a pattern: 1. Select the camera where the pattern will be

saved. 2. Enter the pattern number (1-3). 3. Press the Pattern key. Depending upon the

pattern number entered, the LCD shows “P-1”, “P-2”, or “P-3”. IMPORTANT! With SpeedDome Ultra series domes, a progress bar displays showing the remaining number of programming steps available. The progress bar decreases as the pattern commands are used.

4. Press the Prog key (located on the upper left side of the keypad). The dome moves very slowly during pattern programming and cannot be adjusted.

5. Using the Tracker Ball and lens control keys, maneuver the camera to define the pattern.

6. When finished programming the pattern, press the Ack key to save.

Pattern Programming for Older SpeedDome Series Domes If you have older SpeedDome series domes installed at your facility, use the following procedure.


1. Select the camera that will be used for programming the pattern.

2. Do one of the following: Pattern Number Function Key Command Pattern 1 121 F2 Pattern 2 122 F2 Pattern 3 123 F2

3. Using the Tracker Ball and lens control keys, maneuver the camera to define the pattern.

4. Enter 120 and press the F2 key to end the pattern definition.

5. Enter 130 and press the F2 key to save the pattern to memory.

Programming Preset Scenes Certain cameras with pan/tilt and motorized lens capability can be programmed to immediately move to specific pan, tilt, zoom, and focus positions when called by a keyboard.

The maximum number of SensorNet or RS-422 dome presets is limited to 72 because the presets are stored in the AD168, not the dome.

Monitor Arming Armed monitors are system monitors that are configured to display alarm signals as they occur. By arming a monitor, you define how it will display, queue, and clear incoming alarms. Before arming a monitor, you must understand the alarm display, queue, and clearance methods.

Alarm Display Methods

There are three alarm display methods:

Single Display: Incoming alarms are displayed on a single monitor. Multiple alarms received at a single monitor will be displayed in sequence based on the monitor’s queuing method.

Dual Display: Incoming alarms are displayed on a pair of monitors. The hold monitor receives the first of a series of alarms. The sequence monitor receives subsequent and queues the incoming alarms. After an alarm is cleared on the hold monitor, the first alarm in queue on the sequence monitor is moved to the hold monitor for viewing and clearance.


16 of 31

Block Display: Incoming alarms are displayed on a group (block) of monitors. The first incoming alarm is displayed on the first (lowest numbered) monitor of the block. The second alarm is displayed on the next lowest numbered monitor of the block, and so on. When all monitors in a given block are displaying alarm video signals, all subsequent alarms are held in queue until displayed alarms are cleared.

Alarm Queuing Methods

There are two alarm queuing methods:

Sequence Queuing: Incoming alarms are displayed in sequence at an armed monitor, and will cycle continuously until each is cleared. Each alarm will be displayed for a pre-programmed dwell time, before it is succeeded by the next received alarm.

Hold Queuing: An incoming alarm is displayed and held on an armed monitor until it is cleared. All subsequent alarms are queued in order until the current held alarm is cleared.

Alarm Clearance Methods

There are three alarm clearance methods:

Manual Clear: An alarm is cleared by pressing the Ack key.

Instant Clear: An alarm is reset immediately at its source (if the alarm has not already been manually acknowledged). For example, a door opens and activates an alarm. Closing the door clears the alarm instantly.

Auto Clear: An alarm is reset at its source after a 20 second delay (if the alarm has not already been manually acknowledged). For example, a door opens and activates an alarm. The door is immediately closed, but the alarm will not clear unless the door remains closed for a 20 second interval.

Monitor Arming Codes

Arming codes are derived from the different combinations of display, queuing, and clearance. Based on the combinations, there are 16 codes, each with its own number and a three or four letter acronym ID. The default arming code for all monitors is DIS (disarmed).

Note: Monitor blocks must be defined through S³ software.

Table 6: Monitor Arming Codes

Detecting Camera Video Loss The AD168 system has built-in video loss detection. The video loss detection level set for a particular camera is based on the lighting conditions that exist where the camera is installed. For example: • A camera installed in a room that is brightly lit on

a 24-hour basis would have a video loss detection level set to Video High or Video Med.

• A camera installed in a shadowy or dark area, or an area where lighting conditions vary considerably, would have a video loss detection level set to Video Low.

Regardless of how the lighting conditions and video signal vary, a sync signal should always be present in a working camera. Setting the video loss detection level for Sync Only produces a video loss message when the sync signal is absent. This would occur if a camera is malfunctioning, disconnected, or if the camera cable is cut. Note: Verify that the keyboard is in programming mode before performing this task.
