3. PROGRAMMABLE FEATURES
The Dennard 2040 / 2060 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 (Dennard 2060) or 100 (Dennard 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 (Dennard 2060) or 50 (Dennard 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 Dennard 2040)
The Dennard 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 (Dennard 2060) or 50 (Dennard 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 protocol, to invoke a pre-set
alarm action from one single loop broadcast command.
