Changing The Settings Of The Unit - Monacor TVSP-42COL Mode D'emploi

blinks. By means of the buttons 1 to 4, it is now possi-
ble to "freeze" the pictures of the quadrants as still pic-
tures. During the still picture, the LED above the re-
spective button lights up. By actuating this button once
again, the picture is "unfrozen", i.e. the current camera
picture is displayed again.
The unit returns to the operating mode "Normal" after
the hold time of the still picture selected in the settings of
the unit or upon repeated actuation of the QUAD button
(5). Detailed information concerning the settings can be
found in chapter 5.2.2 "Setting menu, page 2".
5.1.4 Reproduction (PLAY)
Pressing the PLAY button (7) switches the TVSP-
42COL to the reproduction mode. The LED above the
button lights up in this operating mode. If the connect-
ed video recorder is on reproduction, the reproduction
is shown. If the video recorder is on recording, the
monitor shows the current quad picture to be recorded.
If one of the buttons 1 to 4 is pressed, the respective
quadrant is enlarged to frame. Repeated actuation of
the same button "freezes" the picture as still picture
(however, without stopping the video recorder). The
"FREEZE HOLD TIME" which can be adjusted in the
settings of the unit does not have any significance in
the reproduction mode. The picture can only be "unfro-
zen" by repeated actuation of the same button.
Upon repeated actuation of the PLAY button, the
unit returns to the operating mode "Normal".
Note: Frame display of individual quadrants in a video
recording is only possible if the "HALF DUPLEX
MODE" has been selected in the settings of the unit.
Detailed information concerning this setting can be
found in chapter 5.2.2 "Setting menu, page 2".

5.2 Changing the settings of the unit

For an optimum application of the TVSP-42COL in the
respective surveillance system it is possible to change
many operating parameters. All settings are made via
a screen menu.
To call this menu, press the button MENU (8). The
first page of the menu appears on the monitor (see fig.
3 in chapter 5.2.1) and the LED above the button
MENU lights up. However, if the unit is in the operating
mode "Reproduction" or "Still picture", it is necessary
to return first to the operating mode "Normal" by pres-
sing the PLAY button (7) or the QUAD button (5).
The following buttons are required for operating the
setting menu:
(1) and (2)
as cursor buttons to select the parameter to be
changed. Short pressing changes the selection by
one position. If one of these buttons is kept pres-
sed, the position changes continuously. The select-
ed parameter is emphasized by blinking.
+ (3) and - (4)
to increase or reduce the selected parameter value
by one value in case of short pressing. If one of
these buttons is kept pressed for longer than 1 s,
the value changes continuously.
MENU (8)
to go to the next menu page or to leave the setting
menu from menu page 3
To obtain a good readability of text insertions in case of
different picture contents, the text colour can be
changed. Call a menu page with the MENU button (8)
and use the AUTO button (6) to select one of the
optional text colours white, blue, or green.
All changes made in the setting menu are permanently
memorized, i. e. they are preserved even in case of
power failure.
Leave the setting menu by pressing the button MENU
(8) [repeatedly, if necessary].
