6. ALTERNATIVE CONTROLLERS
It is possible to control the Dennard 2060 and Dennard 2040 domes from a wide range of controller
devices. Always refer to the controller manual to identify the correct operating procedures. The
following pages describe the settings and key sequences to control the domes from some of the
most common controllers. However, subsequent changes in controller and keyboard design and
operation may mean that these notes become incorrect.
6.1 Dedicated Micros Digital Sprite 2
6.1.1 Up the coax control
The controller telemetry must be configured as follows:-
Dedicated Micros Alarm and Preset Menu set to BBV Telemetry control.
Dome address switches set to DEN PANEL.
(Refer to the Operation/Installation Manual, supplied with each Dome)
Blue rotary address switch set to F.... Yellow rotary address switch set to D
STORING PRESET POSITIONS:
Note that, in this configuration, it may be quicker to use the DM controller software rather
than using the Dome software.
Move the camera to the desired position then press, and hold, the 'Preset' key until "Save preset"
or "Enter preset number" appears on the screen. Enter the preset number using the number keys
and press 'Enter'. The numbers are entered as normal for presets 1 to 9 but, to access preset 10
enter '1' then '10'. Preset numbers 1 – 16 are accessed by entering them as single digits (i.e. '1'
then '1' for 11; '1' then '6' for 16).
Preset positions greater than 17 can be programmed using the dome menu. At this stage the preset
menu from the dome will be displayed on the screen enabling you to key in a preset identification.
Text can be entered by moving the cursor under each letter/number in turn using the joystick then
pressing the preset,1, enter keys to accept.
When you have finished entering text, close the menu by moving the cursor down to the Accept edit
line and accept by pressing the 'preset', '1', 'enter' keys.
On the Digital Sprite there are two enter/accept commands.
1. Press the preset key until "go to position" is shown on the screen then press key 1 then
the enter key i.e. preset,1, enter.
2. Press the preset key until go to position is shown on the screen then key 10 followed by
key 1 i.e. preset,10,1
