devices, such as lights, audible alarms, or door

locks, that can be operated via the camera

controller when they are connected to a dome or

the video matrix switcher. Auxiliaries can also be

initiated automatically in response to an alarm

when they have been configured to do so. The

DeltaDome programmable surveillance camera

provides four connections for auxiliaries. When

used on a Manchester network, Auxiliaries 1

through 3 are supported. Auxiliary 4 will not work.

The DeltaDome programmable surveillance

camera supports three latching auxiliaries. A
