1.3 Setting the Camera Address
Once the AutoDome power is turned on and homing is complete, you must set the camera
address. You may also want to assign a password and customize some of the AutoDome
default settings.
1.3.1 FastAddress
FastAddress is an AutoDome feature that allows you to set or change a camera address using
the keyboard and on-screen menus.
There are three (3) FastAddress commands:
– ON-999-ENTER: Displays and programs all cameras without an address in the system.
– ON-998-ENTER: Displays and programs all cameras with or without an address in the
system.
– ON-997-ENTER: Displays the current address status of all cameras in the system
simultaneously.
To set an address for a camera without an address:
1. Select the camera number you want to FastAddress. The system displays the camera
number on the keyboard and the image on the corresponding monitor.
2. Press #-ENTER (where # is the camera number without an address).
3. Press ON-999-ENTER to invoke an on-screen display of cameras on the system without
an address.
4. Follow the on-screen instructions. You receive an on-screen confirmation when the
FastAddress is complete.
To change or clear an address for a camera with an address:
1. Select the camera number you want to FastAddress. The system displays the camera
number on the keyboard and the image on the corresponding monitor.
2. Press #-ENTER (where # is the camera number with an address).
3. Press ON-998-ENTER to invoke an on-screen display of all cameras on the system, with or
without an address.
4. Follow the on screen instructions. You receive an on-screen confirmation when the
FastAddress is complete.
NOTICE! You do not need to set a camera address if using Bilinx or Ethernet communication.
See the AutoDome Modular Camera System Installation Manual to configure an AutoDome for
Bilinx or Ethernet operation.
NOTICE! If a keyboard is set to a camera number that already has an address, that camera
also responds to this command.
NOTICE! FastAddress is stored in nonvolatile memory and does not change if the power is
turned off or if the default settings are restored.
