4.0 INSTALLATION

If you have the CM8505R keyboard controller, mount

it securely into a suitable equipment rack or frame, us-

ing the supplied rack mount screws and washers. Keep

in mind the visibility and accessibility of the control

functions while installing the keyboard.

4.1 INSTALLATION PREPARATION

Before installing your CM8500 system, it is necessary

to know how the system will be configured. This infor-

mation is needed not only for the hardware installa-

tion, but is also necessary when programming the

CM8500 system.

4.3 SYSTEM HOOKUP

IMPORTANT NOTE: Remove the paper

between the battery contacts on the CPU card

if it has not been removed. Refer to Figure 8

and Sections 4.3.3.1.1 and 4.3.3.1.3.

Section 5.5.1 contains important information and blank

forms that will assist you in preparing for the installa-

tion. Refer to this section prior to installing your

CM8500 system.

4.3.1 General

4.2 MOUNTING

The System 8500 is a third-generation Coaxitron^®sys-

tem, and therefore only requires a single coaxial cable or

fiber* to be installed from the main card cage to each cam-

era location. The Coaxitron^®system will receive the video

signals from each individual camera and will use the same

coaxial cable to send data to the receiver/drivers located

at or near the camera sites. Fixed camera locations do

not require the receiver/driver unless the use of auxiliary

functions is desired. Camera power can be derived from

the receiver, which is normally powered by local 120

VAC. Refer to Pelco Specification Sheet C550 for de-

tails of receiver capabilities and requirements.

The CM8502A-1 and CM8503A-1 Card Cage assem-

blies come pre-assembled with all circuit cards installed

and tested, ready to mount in standard 19-inch EIA rack-

ing consoles. The card cage will take 5.25 inches (13.34

cm) of vertical rack space. If ordered, individual spare

circuit cards are shipped separately. See Section 4.3.3

for instructions on individual circuit card installation

and setup.

NOTE: If you are installing the card cage in

a 19-inch rack, remove the 6-32 flathead screw

from the top of the front panel. This will allow

you to remove the front panel after the card cage

is installed in the rack.

In addition to being a Coaxitron^®system, the CM8500

also can support Pelco Wiretron receivers or Pelco Spec-

tra™, Legacy^®or Intercept^®receivers that have been

configured for control via RS-422. Wiretron operation

requires the CM8506 option board; RS-422 Spectra™,

Legacy^®and Intercept^®receivers require the CM8507

option board.

NOTE: After installing the card cage, con-

nect the ground lug on the back panel to earth

ground. The ground lug is located on the left

side above the ground symbol

* NOTE: Check with your fiber-optic equipment

manufacturer for specifications and type of

equipment appropriate for compatibility with

Pelco Coaxitron^®transmitters and receivers.

NOTE: Make sure the fuse module on the

rear of the card cage is installed for the correct

voltage.

of the keyboard. (On the CM8505R keyboard, it doesn’t

matter which port you use on the keyboard. Two con-

nectors are provided to support the daisy chaining of

keyboards, but this feature is not currently available.)

If user-supplied cabling is installed, then the CM9505J

adapter kit should be used to facilitate installation at

both the CPU and keyboard locations. (See Section

4.3.2.4 for wire-run distance specifications.)

Up to eight (8) independent keyboards may be installed.

The backplane of the main card cage has eight (8) ports

that correspond to the keyboard inputs (refer to Figure

2A). If the supplied 8-conductor flat cable assembly is

used, it only requires that one end be plugged into a

port on the CPU and the other into the port on the rear

4.3.2.1 CM9505UPS/CM9505J

Installation

4.3.2.3 CM9505J Wire/Pin

Configuration

The CM8502A-1 and CM8503A-1 Card Cages each

offer a total of eight (8) individual keyboard commu-

nications ports. Normally one keyboard utilizes one

communications port. Communications between each

keyboard and the CPU consists of two (2) balanced

differential data pairs and ±12 VDC supply voltages

together utilizing seven conductors. The keyboards are

supplied with 25-foot (63.5 cm) pretested intercon-

nect cables with pre-assembled RJ-45 modular 8-pin

male connectors. Within many installations, it is nec-

essary to install system keyboards at remote sites. The

CM9505J Junction Box allows you to convert the key-

board data cable into a set of cabling that can be run

through conduit (if necessary) for significantly greater

distances by eliminating the keyboard power connec-

tions and only running the data. The CM9505UPS re-

introduces keyboard power at the keyboard end of the

cabling. See Figure 5. For distances of over 2,000 feet

(609.6 m), Pelco recommends using the CM9505UPS-

422 power supply/data repeater at the middle of the

run of wire in addition to the CM9505UPS.

Note that the pin assignments on the CM9505J wire

connection do not match the RJ-45 modular connector.

Make connections accordingly. (The color information

printed on the CM9505J PC board has no relevance in

this application.)

If the CPU is to supply power to the keyboards, the

distance limitations based on conductor size are shown

in the following table:

NOTE: The 8-conductor cable provided by

Pelco with the CM8505D, CM9505J or

CM9505UPS is 28 gauge.

NOTE: When using the CM9505J with the

CM9505UPS , use pins 1, 2, 7, and 8 ONLY.

This will allow for data to be passed through,

and for power to be reintroduced at the

CM9505UPS.

4.3.3.1.5 Installing Option Boards

4.3.3.1.6 Option Board Receiver

Connections

The CM8500 is factory-equipped as a Coaxitron com-

patible only system (unless requested differently). The

CM8500 is also capable of transmitting two-wire con-

trol information in RS-422 or Wiretron formats. To

make use of the system’s two-wire capabilities, the ap-

propriate Pelco CM8500 Option Board must be

installed to the system buffer board.

When working with CM8500 optional data formats,

keep the following in mind when making the two-wire

connections to the receivers.

The CM8500 system offers no receiver addressability.

Home runs are required for each receiver in the sys-

tem, and each receiver (if addressability applies to the

receiver) must be set to address 1.

CM8506

CM8507

CM8500Wiretron compatible option

board

The following two-wire connections

must be made:

CM8500 RS-422 compatible option

board

When using the CM8506 Wiretron compatible op-

tion board, the “+” output for the camera that is to be

controlled with a Wiretron receiver must be connected

to the “high” input on the Wiretron receiver. The “-”

output is to be connected to the “low” input on the

Wiretron receiver.

Both option boards install into the CM8500 system

using the same procedures. It is important to note that

only one option board can be installed, making the sys-

tem either Coaxitron^®/Wiretron compatible or

Coaxitron^®/RS-422 compatible. The system cannot

work with all three information formats at the same

time.

With the CM8507 RS-422 compatible option board,

the “+” output for the camera that is to be controlled

with an Intercept^®or Legacy^®receiver is to be con-

nected to the “RX+” input on the Legacy^®or Inter-

cept^®receiver. The “-” output is to be connected to

the “RX-” input on the Legacy^®or Intercept^®receiver.

NOTE:The CM8506/CM8507 option boards

are transmit-only units. Only the appropriate

control signals are generated from the option

boards.

Option Board Physical Installation

Again, make sure all addressable receivers are set to

address 1.

The option boards are easy to install and should take

only a minimum of time.After turning off system power

and removing the buffer board (see section 4.3.3.1.4),

notice on the un-populated side of the buffer board there

are three (3) plug-in connectors and five (5) hex

spacers. The populated side of the option board (ei-

ther the CM8506 or CM8507) has the matching male

pin connections and five mounting holes.

IMPORTANT: After the Option Board has

been installed, and the individual jumper se-

lections have been made for each receiver, you

must program the system software to match

the individual receiver data formats. Refer to

Section 5.5.2.4 for ReceiverTypes Program-

ming Screen information.

Line the female plug-in connectors and standoffs on

the buffer board with the male pin connectors and

mounting holes on the option board. Gently press the

boards together making the plug in connections. Use

the five (5) supplied mounting screws to firmly secure

the option board to the buffer board.

Make the appropriate jumper settings on the buffer

board (each receiver that is compatible with the new

option board must have jumpers set on the buffer board

appropriately). Reinstall the new buffer board/option

board assembly into the CM8500 card cage. See sec-

tion 4.3.3.2 for jumper setting information.

4.3.3.2 Setting Termination on

Video Inputs

4.3.3.3 Determining and Setting

Monitor Output Assignments

The termination settings for the 32 video inputs are in-

dividually assigned on the Buffer Card. There are 64

jumpers located on the component side of the board,

two jumpers for each video input (designated V1

through V32). Refer to Figure 9. The board will have

to be removed from the motherboard in order to change

the setting(s). Follow the instructions for board removal

and replacement in Section 4.3.3.1.4 and refer to Fig-

ure 9 when setting the jumpers. For more information,

refer to Section 4.3.3.4.2.

Monitor output numbers automatically correspond

to the slot that the Input/Output board is installed.

The first monitor slot is the one just forward of the

Buffer Card slot. The last monitor slot is located in

the forward-most position. No other settings are

necessary.

4.3.3.4 Camera Location to Video

Input Hookup

Since the CM8500 is a Coaxitron^®system, each cam-

era input that has a Coaxitron^®receiver requires only a

single coaxial cable (or fiber) to transmit both video

and camera control signals. Follow camera manufac-

turers’ recommendations for maximum allowable dis-

tances for their equipment.

NOTE: Jumper positions 1 and 2 apply to the

terminating/looping status of the individual

video inputs. Jumper positions 3 and 4 apply to

the Coaxitron^®/two-wire compatibility of the

individual receiver.

4.3.3.4.1 Cable Selection

If there is any equipment, such as a spot monitor, be-

tween the video input of the CM8500 and the video

output from your camera or receiver/driver, make sure

that these devices are set for looping, or high imped-

ance. Terminate the video input to the CM8500. Here,

the CM8500 is the last piece of equipment.

Coaxitron requires a high quality solid copper core co-

axial cable with at least 95-percent copper braid shield.

Copper-clad steel center conductor is not recommended,

nor is aluminum shield. Such construction is generally

recognized as not being adequate for baseband CCTV

systems. This type of cabling is meant for RF MATV/

CATV type systems only.

4.3.3.4.2 Termination

Video In

Coaxitron is sensitive to improper termination and care

must be taken to ensure proper installation. When a

video output from a camera or receiver/driver goes di-

rectly to a video input of the CM8500, the video input

must be terminated with 75 ohms. However, if there is

more than one piece of equipment in the video path,

only the last piece of equipment is terminated. Termi-

nating more than one piece of equipment (double ter-

mination) causes loss of signal.

Out

Looping

Input

75-ohm

termination

Video devices placed between the CPU and receiver/

driver must be passively looping and not use an ampli-

fied looping scheme. Some quad devices and VCRs use

this scheme. The amplified devices are not bidirectional

and therefore do not pass the Coaxitron^®control sig-

nals. Should these devices need to be installed they must

utilize video that has first looped through the matrix

inputs .

For example, if a video input to the CM8500 is going

to be looped out to the input of another device, place

the jumper on the buffer card in the CM8500 in the

looping position and terminate the input of the device

receiving its signal from the CM8500. In this case the

CM8500 is between the video source and the final piece

of video input equipment.

4.3.3.4.3 Ground Loops

4.3.6 Installation/Connection of

CM8532 Alarm/Relay Interface

One other precaution to take prior to final connections

being made is to check all input coaxial cables for the

presence of possible ground loop voltages. Sync, video,

control functions, and/or system electronics may be ad-

versely affected by a ground loop condition. Call Pelco

if unable to correct any ground loop problems. Do not

connect cables to input connectors if ground loop volt-

ages are present between CPU and camera sites or be-

tween camera sites through the CPU. Pelco manufac-

tures the GIT100, ground isolation transformer, to help

alleviate ground loop problems in Coaxitron^®-based

equipment. The use of fiber optics is also another means

to eliminate ground loops in a system.

4.3.6.1 Alarm/Relay Interface Kit

Installation

The Alarm/Relay Interface Kit contains the Alarm/

Relay Interface Board (with ribbon cables attached)

and all hardware needed to secure the board and con-

nectors. The Alarm/Relay Interface Board mounts

onto the Backplane of the CM8502-1 or CM8503-1

Card Cage (refer to Figure 6).

NOTE: To install the board, the top cover as

well as the CPU and buffer boards need to be

removed.

4.3.3.4.4 Hookup

Connect the 10-pin connector from the Alarm/Relay

Interface board to the backplane of the matrix card cage.

Note that the connector is keyed and that the edges of

the connectors should match (i.e., that the connector

has not shifted over one way or the other).

After ensuring that the above conditions have been met

and that all precautions have been observed, the co-

axial inputs from the camera locations can be connected

to the input connectors on the backplane of the card

cage.

Once connected, secure the Alarm/Relay Interface

Board to the standoffs with the hardware provided. Once

secured, remove the blank-off plate covering the con-

nector slots and mount the alarm and relay intercon-

nect ribbon cable connectors to the card cage. Refer to

the following information for the proper location of each

connector.

Be sure that each connection is secure and that the con-

nectors are properly installed.

It is always good installation practice to mark or num-

ber all cabling. If system troubleshooting is necessary

and cables need to be disconnected, system downtime

can be minimized with a well organized cable identifi-

cation system.

Each keyboard will utilize a system monitor output for

programming and keyboard feedback. Select one moni-

tor output at the keyboard location to be the data monitor

and connect that output from the card cage to the key-

board video input connector. Connect the monitor output

from the keyboard to the appropriate monitor and ensure

correct termination (75 Ohm). Refer to Figure 10.

4.3.7 Alarm Input Connection

To connect alarm inputs to the system requires that the

alarm inputs first be wired into a 37-pin D-type con-

nector (supplied by Pelco). Refer to Section 4.3.7.1

for the connector pin designations. Once wired, con-

nect the connector to the appropriate location on the

back panel of the card cage.

4.3.5 Connecting Other System

Monitors

All other system monitors may be interconnected to

the video output BNC terminal(s) of the card cage with

the appropriate length and type of coaxial cable or

fiber-optic interface equipment. The video output of

the CM8500 is a standard NTSC 1V p-p video signal.

Again, ensure for proper 75-Ohm termination at the

monitor(s) or other video processing equipment.

5.0 PROGRAMMING THE CM85OO

5.1 THE KEYBOARD/CONTROLLER

5.1.1 General

All programming for the CM8500 is done from the sys-

tem keyboard(s). Since the CM8500 is a password ac-

cessed system, any keyboard in the system may be used

for programming. Program information is entered directly

from the keyboard with the use of menus accessed and

“pulled down” on the data monitor. The data monitor is

the monitor connected to the system via the keyboard.

Accessibility to these menus also is based on user pass-

word and priority tables. A very structured, secure, and

flexible system management scheme is made possible

through the use of these programs. All operational pa-

rameters are controlled by user-programmable system

software.

The CM8505 Series keyboard is the primary input de-

vice for programming and operating the System 8500.

All keyboards are full-function keyboards. The CM8505D

Desktop keyboard/controller is illustrated in Figure 11.

5.1.2 Joystick

The joystick serves two purposes;A. To control the move-

ment of a selected pan and tilt or scanning device in the

operating (run) mode, and B. To control cursor move-

ment in the programming (edit) mode of operation. Its

operation is much like a “mouse”. The movement of the

stick “steers” the cursor, and the push button on the top

of the stick is used to “point” or “select” your choice.

PTZ preset and pattern functions, and

Auxiliary functions

The joystick control on all CM8505 model keyboards is

of the proportional type that allows for vector solving

control of all Pelco Spectra™, Intercept^®and Legacy^®

variable speed pan and tilt devices. The farther the stick

is deflected from center, the faster the pan and/or tilt will

move. With the button depressed a “turbo” mode is

achieved, allowing the pan and tilt to move at its greatest

rate of speed in pan.

are some of the CM8500 System operations that are

programmable.

Please read the following programming sections closely

prior to system initialization and be sure you under-

stand each section. If, for any reason, there are any ques-

tions regarding programming or operation please call

Pelco at (800)289-9100 or FAX us toll-free at (800)289-

9150.

Standard single-speed devices are compatible with the

controller as well. When controlling fixed speed de-

vices, only the direction of joystick movement (not the

magnitude of movement), affects the operation of the

pan/tilt device. See the corresponding Product Specifi-

cation Sheets for individual specifications.

5.5 PROGRAMMING

5.5.1.1 Video Input Form

5.5.1 Preprogramming Information

The Video Input Form is used to create a log of each

camera input, its type, the receiver type, etc. This in-

formation also is needed when setting the jumper posi-

tions for the individual camera inputs located on the

Buffer Board. Refer to Section 4.3.3.2 for additional

information when setting the jumper positions.

Prior to programming the System 8500, it is highly rec-

ommended that the system programmer complete an

outline of the system configuration and its operators.

This information is not only very important when pro-

gramming the system initially, but can be critically

important in the event of a malfunction or other situa-

tion occurs. The following sections will help organize

the information needed to program the system. Once

completed and programmed into the system, store the

information in a safe location.

A brief description of the type of data to be entered is

given below:

in Section 9, Programming Forms. Use these forms

when making additional copies, if desired.

This is the description of the cam-

era. When the camera is accessed,

this description will be displayed in

the top left corner of the monitor. A

maximum of 20 alphanumeric char-

acters can be entered in this field.

5.5.2.4 Programming Receiver Types

1. From the CAM menu, [js to RxType], high-

light and release [point] button.

Defining the type receiver located at each camera loca-

tion is important to the proper operation of the CM8500

system because the system refers to this table during

other portions of the programming process and also in

the “run” mode. The CM8500 system allows for four

different receiver types: select Cx for a Coaxitron^®

system (including Legacy^®Coaxitron^®systems and

Intercept^®Coaxitron^®systems without variable speed

or presets), Wx for a Wiretron system, Ic for a Spec-

tra™ or Intercept^®Coaxitron^®system with variable

speed or presets, or Is for a Spectra™, Intercept^®or

Legacy^®two-wire system. For fixed-mount cameras,

define the receiver input as Cx (see note). To define the

receiver types, refer to Figure 18 and the following pro-

cedure:

2. At this time the Receiver Types menu will appear

on the screen. To define a the receiver type for a

specific camera, move the cursor to the desired

column for the camera to be defined and press the

[point]button. Only one column may be selected

at a time.

3. Continue defining receiver types by repeating the

above procedure or press the [CLEAR] key on

the numeric keypad to return to the “run” mode.

NOTE: Some Fixed-mount cameras may have

problems receiving the Coaxitron^®signal from

the CM8500 system. If this occurs, refer to Sec-

tion 5.5.2.9, Programming User Profiles, and

define those cameras for viewing purposes only.

This will prevent the Coaxitron^®signal from

being sent to the camera.

5.5.2.5 Programming Presets

5.5.2.6 Programming Patterns

The CM8500 system has the capability to program re-

ceivers equipped to accept preset positions. In addition,

when programming Spectra™ or Intercept^®series re-

ceivers, the user has the added benefit of defining a

label for each preset position. The label will appear in

the upper right corner of the monitor screen. The amount

of available presets depends on the receiver. Refer to

the corresponding receiver documentation for additional

information on preset positions. To define preset posi-

tions, refer to the following procedure:

The CM8500 system can program receivers to scan a

specific pattern, as defined by the needs of the user.

This option is available only with Spectra™ and Inter-

cept^®series receivers. Each receiver is capable of stor-

ing one pattern with 60 seconds of scanning time. For

more information regarding patterns, refer to the cor-

responding receiver documentation.

NOTE: When programming a pattern, if the

pattern utilizes the full 60-second time allot-

ment, when that pattern is selected to run it will

only scan once and stop. The camera will then

be positioned at the end of the scan pattern. If,

however, the pattern is programmed for less

than 60 seconds, when the pattern is selected it

will run continuously until manually stopped.

1. Call up the camera to be programmed by pressing

the corresponding digits on the numeric keypad

and pressing the [CAM] key. The camera should

now be selected and the camera number should be

displayed in lower left corner of the monitor.

NOTE: The keyboard must be able to control

the camera. If the keyboard has control an as-

terisk will be displayed next to the camera num-

ber. If no asterisk is present, refer to Section

5.5.2.9, Programming User Profiles, for addi-

tional information.

To program a pattern using the CM8500 system, refer

relays can be energized manually or automatically

through alarm programing.

2. Select Relay from the resulting drop-down menu.

3. From the Relay Follow table, select the moni-

tor camera/relay table to be edited.

The CM8532 relay follow card provides 32 double-pole

outputs so that two contacts can be switched simulta-

neously per relay command. The programming is moni-

tor specific. A relay is commanded to energize based

on a specific camera input routed to a specific monitor

output. Relays can also be manually commanded to

energize/de-energize.

4. Edit the monitor/camera assignment by selecting

the viewing monitor to trigger the relay (M1, M2,

M3...) from the Relay Follow menu box. When a

monitor is selected, the Relay Follow menu

box for assigning camera/relay will result.

relay number of the camera and enter the desired

relay number (0 = no relay) from the keypad.

Note that the relay number will disappear as the

prompt waits for the relay number to be typed at

the keypad. The relay can be cleared by double

clicking on camera field.

The System 8500 offers 32 assignable relays, allowing

for a relay follow table to be programmed for each moni-

tor. When a camera is selected to a particular monitor

(for any reason), a relay can be energized. This feature

is useful in enabling/disabling lighting, microphones,

speakers, triggering video cassette recorders, and other

uses.

NOTE: The CM8532 is not an audio matrix

(i.e., when attempting to route multiple audio

paths to multiple monitoring stations, you may

have serious audio problems if you attempt to

use this board). If you have questions regard-

ing the use of the CM8532 or relay program-

ming, please call the factory toll-free at

Schedules

5.5.2.16 Programming DayTypes

To program a sequence of tours for a specific DayType,

follow the steps below:

The System 8500 sequencing program allows the user

to tie event programming (tours running by day types

and times) to specific, current-year, calendar-based

dates.

1. Press ENTER on the keypad to enter into the Sys-

tem 8500 programming mode.

Each day of the year can be defined as one of six user-

programmable DayTypes. Each DayType consists

of 16, tour-triggering time slots. For organizational pur-

poses, DayTypes have been assigned the following

titles:

2. Using the joystick pointer tool, select Event from

the main menu.

3. Select DayType from the resulting drop-down

menu.

N = Normal

W = Weekend

H = Holiday

A =

B =

C =

4. Choose from N,W,H,A,B, or C to select the

DayType to be edited (see Figure 42).

5. Each line of the Event Editor contains a fixed

sequential event number (16 time slots total), a pro-

grammable time field, and a line for designating

the tour to be played out during that time slot. Se-

lect the hour field of the first event, and enter in

the desired time of the event in hours from the key-

pad; select the minute field and enter in the min-

utes from the keypad.

Any DayType title can be assigned to any calendar date.

NOTE: The System 8500 time clock is a 24-

hour clock. Be sure to enter in a valid time that

represents the desired A.M./P.M. placement

(i.e., 3:30 P.M. = 15:30).

6. Finally, select the tour line for designating the

tour to be played out during this time slot. With

the tour line of the Event Editor menu selected,

choose the Tour to be placed in the time slot by

clicking on the appropriate tour title from the Tour

pick list.

7. Repeat steps 4 thru 6 for each sequence slot needed

(16 time slots available) to complete the event pro-

gramming.

Event Editor

8. Repeat steps 4 thru 7 for editing each desired

DayType.

NOTE: In listing the events within a

DayType, event times must be sequenced in

chronological order.

6.0 SYSTEM OPERATION, KEYBOARD

COMMANDS

6.1 SYSTEM OPERATION/KEYBOARD

COMMANDS

If you are not yet familiar with the operation of the

CM8500 system, you are encouraged to take a few

minutes to review Section 6.1, System Operation/

Keyboard Commands. This section outlines the steps

necessary for proper operation. Because the CM8500

system was designed for user-friendliness, many of

the operations may be done in more than one way.

This section will list all ways in which to perform

the desired task. As the operator, you may choose

the method you feel most comfortable with.

6.1.1 Data Monitor

The Data Monitor is the monitor at each location con-

nected directly to the keyboard.All menus are accessed

through this monitor. Refer to Figure 46. When in the

“run” mode, a Status Bar is displayed in the lower left

corner of the monitor. This bar contains information

regarding system operation, such as which monitor is

accessed, which camera is accessed for the specified

monitor, and if the current user has control over the

selected camera. The only monitor that will have the

Status Bar is the Data Monitor.

For the user familiar with the operation of the CM8500

system, an Operation Reference Guide is available in

Section 6.2. This section only provides the user with

the command(s) necessary to complete the desired op-

eration. In addition, a copy of the Operation Reference

Guide is available in Section 9, Forms, and may be pho-

tocopied to provide assistance for system operators at

remote keyboard locations, if desired.

6.1.2 Log On

6.1.3 Calling Up a Monitor

To Log On to the system requires that a Log On prompt

be visible in the Status Bar located at the bottom of

the Data Monitor. Press the [ENTER] key located

on the numeric keypad to access the on-screen key-

pad. Using the on-screen keypad only, enter the user

id number (1-16) followed by the user access code

(five-character PIN number). When entering this in-

formation, there must be a space between the two

fields. Using the on-screen keypad, press the Ent but-

ton. If the information has been entered correctly, the

Status Bar will display the selected monitor and cam-

era. If the information was not valid or an error in

format occurred, the Status Bar will return to the Log

On prompt. Only one user may be logged onto a key-

board at a time.

There are two ways to call up a specific monitor. The

first is to enter the monitor number using the numeric

keypad followed by the [MON] key. If the desired

monitor is available, it will be accessed at this time and

the monitor number and the camera being viewed by

the specified monitor will be displayed in the Status

Bar. Only a monitor located at the control site where

you are located should be available to be called up.

Another method to select a specific monitor is to press

the [MON] key without first entering a numeric input.

This calls up an on-screen Monitor Selection Menu and

is available on the Data Monitor only. Refer to Figure

47. Position the cursor on the desired monitor and press

the [point] button. If the monitor is available, it will

be accessed at this time and the information should be

displayed in the Status Bar.

NOTE: When using the Monitor Selection

Menu to select a specific monitor, the menu

must be cleared from the Data Monitor prior

to having control over the selected monitor/

camera. To remove the Monitor Selection

Menu, press the [CLEAR] key located on

the numeric keypad.

press the [point] button. The camera video should now

be present on the defined monitor, if so defined by the

user's profile.

There are three ways to call up a specific camera. If the

user knows the number of the camera desired for view-

ing, enter the numeric value of the camera via the nu-

meric keypad and press the [CAM] key. If the camera

is available to the user as defined in the user’s profile,

the camera video will be placed on the currently ac-

cessed monitor.

The third way is to use the [NEXT]and[PREV] keys

to scroll through the available cameras. Refer to Sec-

tion 6.1.5.4 for additional information.

To clear the Camera Selection Menu from the Data

Monitor, press the [CLEAR] key on the numeric key-

pad.

If the user does not know the numeric input for a de-

sired camera, pressing the [CAM] key will bring up a

6.1.4.1 Camera Access Prompt

6.1.5.3 Flip Control Function

Access to a camera is defined by the user’s profile and

can be changed only by the system manager. When a

camera is accessed by a user, only those cameras avail-

able to the user will be called up when requested. If a

camera is not available to a user, the system will re-

main in the same configuration it was in prior to re-

questing the unauthorized camera. In many cases, us-

ers will have access to only the video portion of the

camera and not have any control over the camera itself.

This also is defined in the user’s profile.

This function key operates with Intercept^®series re-

ceivers only. When the [FLIP] key is pressed with an

Intercept^®series dome selected, the camera will rotate

to a view 180° from the current view. For the flip com-

mand on a Spectra™ dome, call preset 33.

6.1.5.4 Next and Previous Functions

These function keys allow the user to scroll through the

cameras as defined in the user’s profile. Pressing the

[NEXT] key causes the system to select the next cam-

era the user is programmed to have access to. Pressing

the [PREV] key calls up the camera before the cur-

rently viewed camera, as defined by the camera number.

When a camera is accessed by a user, and if the user

has control over the camera, an asterisk will appear next

to the camera number in the Status Bar (refer to

Figure 46). The only time a user has control over the

selected camera is when this prompt is displayed on

the Data Monitor.

NOTE: Pressing the [PREV]key selects the

camera based on camera number, not the pre-

viously viewed camera. If the scanning se-

quence was camera 5 followed by camera 18,

pressing the [PREV]key would access cam-

era 17 unless the user did not have access to

camera 17, in which case it would view the

next accessible camera in descending order.

NOTE:Auser can lose control over a selected

camera if another user of equal or higher pri-

ority calls up the camera. In addition, there also

is a time-out feature that makes the camera

available to any user if the camera hasn’t been

used for a certain time period. If camera con-

trol is lost or the system times out, re-select

the camera. If you cannot control the camera,

a user of higher priority is accessing the cam-

era.The user of lower priority will have to wait

until the camera becomes available again be-

fore regaining control.

6.1.5.5 Calling Up a Preset Position

Preset positions are stored in the receivers and are ac-

cessed by first selecting the desired camera. Once se-

lected, enter the desired preset number followed by the

[PRESET] key. Spectra™ and Intercept^®series re-

ceivers have the capability to store a description of the

preset location. This description will appear in the up-

per left of the monitor screen when the preset position

is called up.

6.1.5 Controlling Camera Operation

6.1.5.1 Manual Movement

All manual movement of pan and tilt functions are con-

trolled by the joystick. Up, down, left, right and diago-

nal movements are possible. For those units capable of

variable-speed mode, pressing the [point] button

while moving the joystick places the camera in “turbo”

mode.

Because preset positions are defined in the receiver,

the CM8500 system does not have access to the preset

definitions or locations once defined. It is recommended

that once programmed, a detailed list be provided to

those users who will be accessing the preset locations.

Refer to Section 5.5.1.4 for additional information.

6.1.5.2 Controlling Lens Functions

Zoom lens functions are controlled from the lens func-

tion keys. Zoom wide, zoom tele(photo), focus near,

focus far, iris close and iris open are the functions avail-

able. Coaxitron^®will allow for simultaneous multiple

lens commands and pan/tilt commands.

6.1.5.6 Adjusting Lens Zoom and

Focus Speed

6.1.6 Running a Sequence

Any authorized user can run a sequence on any moni-

tor accessible from the keyboard. When running a se-

quence, any cameras not accessible to the user will be

bypassed in the scanning sequence. Sequences utilize

the priority code of the user for camera control.

The CM8500 System offers a simple way of adjusting

camera lens Zoom and Focus speeds for better address-

ing user needs. To adjust the Zoom or Focus speed of a

camera lens, proceed with the following:

1. Call up the camera to be edited.

6.1.6.1 Starting a Sequence

2. On the keyboard press a value from 0 to 3 (0 being

slow speed, 3 being fast).

There are two ways to run a previously programmed

sequence. The first is to enter the number of the se-

quence followed by the [SEQ]key. The sequence will

start automatically. The number of the sequence will

be displayed in the Status Bar.

3. Then press the function to be edited (i.e., [Zoom

Wide], [Zoom Tele], [Focus Near], or

[Focus Far]).

The other way to run a sequence is to press the [SEQ]

key without first entering a sequence number. This will

cause the Sequence Menu to appear on the Data Moni-

tor. Refer to Figure 49. To run a sequence, move the

cursor to the desired sequence and press the [point]

button. The sequence will start running automatically.

4. Repeat steps 1-3 for each camera and each func-

tion to be edited.

6.1.9 Acknowledging Alarms

When a sequence is running, the following actions will

cause the sequence to halt operation: moving the joy-

stick, calling up another camera, hitting the [NEXT]

or [PREV] keys, starting another sequence or operat-

ing any manual pan/zoom/tilt function.

When an alarm becomes active, the description will ap-

pear beneath the camera label on the monitor(s) it was

assigned to. To acknowledge alarms, enter the active

alarm number to be acknowledged using the numeric

keypad then press the [ALARM ACK] key. Pressing

the [ALARM ACK] key without first entering an

alarm number will cause the system to scroll through

all active alarms.

NOTE: When selecting a sequence via the

Sequence Menu, the menu must be cleared

from the screen prior to halting the sequence.

CM8500 Alarm Auto Acknowledge

6.1.7 Running a Pattern

System 8500 is capable of being placed into an Alarm

Auto Acknowledge mode. In this mode, an alarm will

be auto acknowledged (i.e., removed from the list of

active alarms) when both of the following conditions

are satisfied:

Any authorized user can run a pattern if the user has

access to the desired camera. Patterns are available with

Spectra™ and Intercept^®series receivers only. To start

a pattern, first select the desired camera and press the

[PATTERN] key. The camera should immediately

start scanning the previously programmed pattern. To

stop a pattern, operate any manual pan/tilt/zoom func-

tion. Also, pressing the [FLIP] key will stop a pattern

scan. Selecting another camera or monitor does not stop

the pattern scan. In addition, pressing the [PATTERN]

key at any time in pattern scan will cause the camera to

return to the starting position of the scan and begin the

pattern again.

1. The alarm input that triggered the response is no

longer in the active state.

2. The response that has been defined for the alarm

has been asserted at least once.

An auto acknowledgment is in all other ways identical

to a manual acknowledgment. To place the system into

AutoAcknowledge or NormalAcknowledge mode, fol-

low the following steps:

NOTE: If the pattern was programmed for

the full 60-second time allotment, the pattern

will stop scanning at the end of the 60-second

programmed pattern.

1. Auto Acknowledge mode is selected from the key-

board by entering [8][8][Alarm Ack] from the

keyboard. In this mode the system will accept, but

not require, manual acknowledgment of an alarm.

6.1.8 Running a Tour

An authorized user can run a tour if the user has access

to the necessary cameras and monitors involved in the

selected tour. To start a tour, press the TOUR button

on the system keyboard.Apop-up menu of programmed

tours will result on the screen. From this menu, select

the tours to be initiated by either placing or removing

an asterisk in the left hand column of the menu. An

asterisk activates the tour. No asterisk indicates a deac-

tivated tour. Dwell times (1-99) also can be individu-

ally assigned in this menu.

2. Manual acknowledgment mode (the system de-

fault), is selected by entering [9][9][Alarm

Ack] from the keyboard. In this mode manual

acknowledgment is required to remove an alarm

from the active alarm list. The last selected alarm

mode is retained in nonvolatile memory.

8.0 TROUBLESHOOTING

8.1 INITIALIZATION

4. If customer supplied multiconductor has been in-

stalled, ensure that wiring sequence is correct at

all splices, junctions, and connectors. (See Section

4.3.2.2.)

Symptom: CPU will not power up

5. If bad keyboard, power supply or CPU card is sus-

pected, call dealer or Pelco for further instructions

and return information.

1. Check On/Off switch. Also check to see if the

Power On and +5 VDC LEDs are illuminated. (See

Figure 7.)

Symptom: On initialization time display won’t come

up; can’t get “Logon” prompt

2. Check power cord connection.

3. Check fuse located below the On/Off switch.

1. This is probably a CPU or software related prob-

lem. If after a couple of attempts to power up and

initialize system the program will not run, call the

factory for assistance. The initialization program

takes about a minute to run before the time seg-

ment comes up and the system will accept the key-

board input.

4. Using an ohmmeter, check the voltages at test

points one through five on the motherboard. Refer

to Figure 4 for test-point location and the follow-

ing chart for proper voltages.

5. If still no power-up, call your dealer or Pelco for

further troubleshooting help.

Symptom: On initialization, time/date present but can’t

get “Logon” prompt

Power Supply Voltages

1. Ensure that when first initializing the system, you

are able to view the data monitor. The system will

always put the “Logon” prompt on the data moni-

tor; therefore, on initial power-up the only moni-

tor available to log on is the data monitor. (See

Section 6.1.1)

Voltage

Test Point

-5 VDC

+5 VDC

GND

Symptom: Getting no response to alarms

-12 VDC

+12 VDC

1. Alarms should be programmed to respond to a

monitor that is never used by a keyboard. If an

alarm becomes activated and tries to respond to a

monitor that is being controlled by a keyboard, the

monitor cannot respond to the alarm. The keyboard/

controller will always have monitor priority over

an alarm.

Symptom: Keyboard(s) will not power up

1. Ensure that the keyboard(s) are plugged into the

correct ports on the CPU. Keyboards should be

plugged into any of the eight grouped RJ-45 jacks

on the CPU.

Use the monitor lock-out table to assure that there

will not be a monitor conflict in the event of an

alarm.

2. Ensure that if not using the factory supplied 25 foot

cable assembly, distance from CPU to keyboards

is not exceeding recommended distances and that

correct wire gauge has been installed. (See Sec-

tion 4.3.2.4)

3. If using the remote power supply, ensure the fuse

is good and the keyboard and CPU are plugged

into the proper ports on the remote power supply.

(See Section 4.3.2.4.)

8.2 OPERATIONAL PROBLEMS

Symptom: No camera on/off functions

Symptom: Video is tearing, hum bars, distortion, noise

in video

1. Camera on/off only functions through a

Coaxitron® receiver. If the camera power is de-

rived from sources other than the receiver the cam-

era on/off function will not work. If the camera

power is derived from the receiver and the camera

function is inoperative, check for improper termi-

nation that could cause loss of control over receiver

functions (See Sections 4.3.3.2).

1. These are all symptoms of a possible ground loop

or electrical grounding problem between one or

more camera locations and the CPU. Although the

problem may be restricted to only one location,

the symptoms may be seen in the video of any or

all inputs. RFI (radio frequency interference) and

EMI (electromechanical interference) can also af-

fect the video. The source of the problem needs to

be isolated and measures taken to correct the prob-

lem. Contact your dealer or Pelco for further assis-

tance.

Symptom: No preset positioning functions (manual

or preset sequence)

1. Preset positioning requires that the pan, tilt and

zoom components are specially equipped with the

proper feedback potentiometers and that the

Coaxitron^®receivers are equipped with the PP op-

tion. Preset positioning addresses and memory are

located in the individual receivers, not the CM8500

CPU. Standard CM8500 firmware includes the

capability for preset positioning.

2. Also check for proper termination on all video in-

puts to the system (See Section 4.3.3.2).

Symptom: Video from specific cameras will not dis-

play on specific monitors

1. Check to see if camera inputs will display on other

monitor outputs.

2. If properly equipped for preset positioning, go to

“Run” mode and set up a view to preset; program

a new preset (see Section 5.5.2.5). Do this for a

few preset locations, then try to call them up again.

If still no response, it may be necessary to remove

receiver power and power up again, resetting the

electronics. Repeat above procedure and if still

unresponsive call the dealer or factory for addi-

tional assistance. The receiver or preset compo-

nents may be incorrectly wired or have failed.

2. If the camera inputs are not displaying on any

monitor outputs, make sure the operator(s) are au-

thorized in their respective user profile table to get

video from the camera(s) in question (see Section

5.5.2.9). If authorized and the camera video is still

not present on monitor outputs, switch input cable

to a known good input. If video is still not present

the camera may not be turned on or operational, or

the video cabling and/or connectors may be open/

shorted.

Symptom: No response to alarms

If the system is not responding to alarms that are known

to be triggered, check the following two most common

oversights in an alarm setup.

Symptom: No P/T/Z control on a specific camera

1. Check the user profile table to ensure that the cam-

era in question is enabled for that user. (See Sec-

tion 5.5.2.9).

1. Keyboard is controlling alarm monitor. If a con-

trol keyboard is using the monitor that the alarm

should control in the event of a triggered alarm,

the keyboard has priority over the alarm.

2. Check to see that the Coaxitron^®receiver for the

input in question is fully functional and that the

camera site is capable of P/T/Z/ functions.

2. Alarm connector wired incorrectly.

3. Check to see that video input is properly termi-

nated (See Section 4.3.3.2). Improper termination

may cause intermittent or complete lack of control

capability.

10.0 GLOSSARY OF TERMS

Alarm, In terms of this manual “alarm” is used to de-

note an event (i.e., contact closure, keyboard com-

mand, or external system-generated data) which is

communicated to the system CPU, interpreted based

on user programming, which then runs a specific

switching and control program. For example: A

contact closure is sensed by the CM8532 alarm card

on input number 2. The CPU has been programmed

to switch camera number 15 to monitor output 4

when an alarm is sensed on alarm input number 2.

Additionally, a preset assigned to camera 15 could

also have been included. Camera 15 could also have

been put in sequence with other cameras that are

called up in alarm.

Event, Event programming essentially ties a tour or

tours to (a) specific time and day type(s). These

tend to be automatically running programs created

to accommodate special needs in sequential switch-

ing when human intervention is impossible or un-

desirable.

Input, Video, This term is applied to the input of

the video input card. This card also supplies the

Coaxitron^®signals to the receiver, so in effect the

card also has an output, but for simplicity’s sake

the term video input is used when referring to the

connection to this card.

Logon, Logoff, Logon and logoff are used to de-

note signing on or off the system. An operator must

logon (sign on) to the system to access control or

programming functions from any keyboard loca-

tion. Keyboard display will show “Logon” when

disabled. An operator should logoff (sign off) the

system when leaving the keyboard location. This

action disables the keyboard ensuring security and

not allowing unauthorized use.

Auxiliary Function, The Pelco Coaxitron^®receiv-

ers currently have the capability of enabling four

external devices by means of relays triggered on

command from the operator. By use of either latch-

ing or momentary relays, devices like wiper/wash-

ers, lights, gate activators, door strikes or infrared

illuminators can be controlled. (See Pelco specifi-

cation sheet C550 for details.)

Coaxitron^®, Pelco’s registered trademark for its up-

the-coax video and control systems. Control pulses

are generated at the transmitter, inserted into the

vertical interval and sent up the same coax that the

video from the camera uses. The signal is then de-

coded by the receiver located near the camera loca-

tion. The receiver sends the appropriate voltages

via multiconductor cable to the camera/lens/PTZ/

enclosure.

Monitor, Data, A data monitor is a monitor that is

connected directly to a keyboard to provide system

information.All menu items, programming screens,

etc. are visible on the data monitor only.

Monitor, System, A system monitor is a monitor

that generally is not controlled by a keyboard, but

dedicated to system functions such as alarming,

tours and event programming. The system

monitor(s) by the nature of their function within

the system should be locked out to keyboard com-

mands.

Day Type, A day type is used in the event program-

ming to establish what category any specific day of

the year is (i.e., Normal weekday, Weekend, Holi-

day, or Special-type day). The Event/Schedule pro-

grams will run tours based on this day type.

Pan, The lateral, or left/right motion of a remote posi-

tioning device.

Dwell, The time that a specific video input is to be

PIN, Personal identification number. Also referred to

as the User ID code. The five-digit number assigned

to a user to verify identification and allow access to

the system.

viewed within a sequence or tour.

Edit Mode, The keyboard is operating within a menu.

The joystick is a cursor movement device only. To

exit, press [CLEAR].

Preset Positioning (PP), This is the ability for a

so equipped pan/tilt unit and its associated lens to

be set to a particular scene, then “memorized” by

the system. The preset positions are actually stored

in the PP version Coaxitron^®receiver and assigned

an address by the programmer (1-32). The trans-

mitter sends the code for the desired preset to the

receiver, requesting it to move the device(s) to the

memorized setting(s).

System Manager, A system manager has access

to all menus and can make changes, deletions or

additions to any programmable fields.

System Supervisor, Asystem supervisor has ac-

cess to some menus in a look-only mode, which

allows him/her to look at the menu but not make

any changes.

Tilt, The vertical, or up/down motion of a remote po-

Priority or Priority Code, Priority refers to the

ability of one operator to gain control over an input

over another user based on the priority code as-

signed to each of them. Alow number priority code

takes control over a high number priority code. In

the case of equal priority numbers (which should

be avoided when programming users) the opera-

tors will alternately share control. This means that

there is a possibility for some confusion in control-

ling a device that two or more operators are trying

to operate simultaneously. Priority codes should be

well thought out to avoid control confusion.

sitioning device.

Tour, In terms of the System 8500 a tour is defined as

a group of video inputs and their respective presets

(if any) programmed to sequence to predetermined

monitor output(s) upon command. Usually a tour

monitor is locked out to all users (see Monitor, sys-

tem). Tours can be used in conjunction with alarms.

User, Any operator authorized to use, operate or pro-

gram the system.

User ID code, (See PIN)

PTZ, Stands for pan, tilt and zoom.

Zoom, The term used to denote the ability of a lens to

vary its focal length. This may be manual or in the

case of remote control by the use of motorized

lenses.

Receiver, Receiver/Driver, The receiver is the

device that decodes the control signal from the trans-

mitter and then “drives” the device(s) associated

with it with the appropriate voltages. The receiver

is usually located at or near the camera location.

Normally the receiver is powered by local 120 VAC.

Relay Output, The System 8500 is capable of pro-

viding relay closures through the use of the CM8532

Relay output card. These relays can be energized

manually or automatically through the alarm pro-

gramming.

Run Mode, The keyboard is addressing receivers or

the CPU to run sequences, tours, or other video

switching/control functions.

Schedule, The scheduling program ties the event pro-

gramming (tours running by day types and times)

to specific current year calendar-based dates.

Sequence, Agroup of video inputs and their respec-

tive programmed presets (if any) to sequence on

any monitor that the system is requested (by the

operator) to run it on. This differs from tour in that

in tour the monitor output is predetermined by the

program, not by the operator.
