Installation and Operating Instructions

This

manual describes the installation

and

operating procedures for the

American

Dynamics model

1473

QuadView

11.

The

1473

QuadView

11,

a four quadrant multiplexer, digitally captures the video from four

video

sources, reduces these images to quarter-

screen size, and combines them onto a QUAD output.

A

separate

CALL

output provides full

-

screen viewing of each input

contained

in

the quad presentation.

Alarm

inputs

and

remote controls provide optimum flexibility

in

alarm viewing and

reoordiag.

hazard,

do

not

expose this product

to

rain

or

moisture.

This product generates and uses radio frequency

energy

and

if

not

installed and used properly, that is,

in

strict accordance with the manufacturer's

instructions, may cause interference to radio

and

television reception.

It

has been type tested and found

to comply

with

the limits for a Class

B

computing

device

in

accordance with the specifications

in

Part 15

of

FCC

Rules, which are designed to provide reasonable

protection against such interference

in

a

residential

installation. However, there is no guarantee that

interference will not occur

in

a

particular installation.

If

this product does cause interference to radio

or

television reception, which can be determined by

turning

the

product

off and

on,

the user is encouraged

to

try

to

correct the interference by one or more

of

the following measures:

-

Reorient the product.

-

Relocate

the product

with

respect to the receiver.

-

Move

the product away

from

the receiver.

-

Plug

the

product

into a different outlet

so

that the

prdct

and

receiver are

on

different branch circuits.

If

necessary, the user should consult the dealer or an

experienced

radio/television technician for additional

suggestions. The user may

find

the following bookket

prepared

by

the Federal Communications Commission

helpful:

a four quadrant multiplexer, digitally

captures

the video

from

four standard video

sources,

reduces

these

to quarter-saeen

size,

and combines

them

into a

single video

output

utilizing a Quad display of

all

four videos.

One

1473

output provides the quad

type presentation.

A

second output provides full

screen viewing

of

each input

contained

in

the

Inputs

Four

pairs

of BNC connectors (1, 2, 3, 4)

are

used

for video

inputs. The camera connected to a BNC automatically is

assigned the corresponding on

-

screen camera number. The

two

-

position slide switch, under each video input pair,

configures the input termination in one of

two

ways:

Right (75

Ohm):

Terminates each input in

75 ohms.

Left

(HiZ):

Used

for unterminated, looping input.

Set the slide switches to

the

right position

if

the signals

are

terminated at the QuadView

II

or to the left if the signal is

looped to another video device (the looping signal must

eventually

be

terminated).

it

may

be

necessary

to

reduce the

are

provided and

may

be

activated by moving internal

jumpers.

These

OPERATION

The

1473

QuadView I1 may be used

with

one

or

two monitors.

If only one monitor is used,

it

should

be

the Call Monitor. The

Call Monitor displays either:

1.

A sequence of full

-

screen camera pictures,

with

or

without

the

Quad

Display

(see

RUN,

below).

2.

A

selected full

-

screen picture of

any

camera or the Quad

Display

(see

1,2,

3.4,

and QUAD below).

The

Quad Monitor always shows the Quad Display.

Front

Panel Operation

A

white

box

is displayed

in

the bottom center of the Quad

display when alarms are enabled (Figure

5).

2. If

any alarm is active on a camera

input,

the

ALARMS

action is an acknowledge

of

the

alarm

(see

Alarm

Mode

Setup, page

3).

Video

Loss

Detection

Loss

of video to any input is detected by the

1473.

When

a

video loss is detected, the corresponding quadrant displays a

blanked screen on

the

Quad display. The last picture received

before video loss is stored

in

memory. If the FREEZE

pushbutton

is

activated following a video loss, the frozen Quad

display includes

the

last picture received, shown

in

the

appropriate quadrant

The

front panel controls (see Figure

5)

operate

as

follows.

Alarm Action

1,

2,3,4:

Each of these pushbuttons

calls

a full

-

screen display

of

the corresponding camera to the Call Monitor.

QUAD

This pushbutton calls a display of four cameras

(in

a

Quad

configuration) to the Call Monitor.

FREEZE:

Alternate

pushbutton

FREEZE

action:

1.

Freezes the current Quad display on both the Call and

Quad

Monitors. The Quad display

also

flashes

the word

"

FROZEN

"

(see Figure

6)

and shows the last picture

received before video loss,

if

video loss had been detected.

2.

Restores the real-time Quad display.

RUN:

The

RUN

pushbutton action sequences the four camera

inputs on the Call Monitor. The sequence rate, either two

or

four seconds,

is

selected by the jumper

J3

1.

To

include

the Quad display

in

the sequence, set jumper

539

to the

"

IN

"

position

(see

Quad Sequence Setup, page

3).

Activating the

RUN

pushbutton while a sequence

is

running

has

no effect. Activating any of the

1,

2,

3.4,

or

QUAD

pushbuttons stops the sequence and calls the requested

display

to

the

Call

Monitor.

ALARMS:

The

ALARMS

pushbutton action depends on the

current mode of the

unit:

1.

If

no

alarms

are active, alternate

ALARMS

pushbutton

action

enables

or

disables

alarm

response action

in

the unit.

Alarm

contact closures on

any

of the

Alarm

Input pins activate

the following response actions

if

the unit is enabled for

alarms:

1.

The word

"

ALARM!

"

flashes on the Quad display to

indicate the presence of

an

alarm (Figure

6).

2.

The Call Monitor displays a full

-

screen picture of one, or a

sequence of multiple, alarmed cameras. The Quad display

may be included

in

this sequence by the setting of jumper

J39

(see

Quad Sequence Setup, page

3).

Alarm

sequence

dwell time is

fmed

at

two seconds.

3.

The Form-C

alarm

relay is activated for control of

external

devices.

Each individual camera

can

be

set for one of three different

alarm

clearance modes, selectable by a

three

position jumper

(see

Alarm Modes Setup, page

3).

After the

alarm

is cleared or

acknowledged, the Call Monitor display

returns

to

the camera

it

was last displaying, before the

alarm

occurred.
