DESCRIPTION  
The KBD4002 Genex® Multiplexer Keyboard is a full-function keyboard controller for the  
Genex MX4000 Multiplexer and the Genex MX4000SVR Multiplexer Server.  
This manual covers the KBD4002 keyboard’s operation with the duplex and simplex models  
of the multiplexer. The differences, as they pertain to the keyboard, will be indicated in the  
text and art wherever necessary.  
There are two modes of operation - multiplexer mode and multiplexer server  
mode–depending on whether the keyboard is connected to a multiplexer or to a server.  
In the multiplexer mode, a single keyboard interfaces up to 16 multiplexers that are  
daisy-chained together. With 9-channel multiplexers, the keyboard can control up to 144  
cameras; with 16-channel multiplexers, up to 256 cameras can be controlled.  
In the multiplexer server mode, up to four keyboards can be connected to a server, which  
interfaces up to eight multiplexers. Up to 72 cameras can be controlled with 9-channel  
multiplexers or 128 cameras with 16-channel multiplexers.  
In addition to performing all the control functions that can be done from the front panel of  
the multiplexer, the keyboard features additional keys for full control of fixed speed and  
variable speed pan, tilt, and lens functions. Variable speed control is accomplished with the  
number keypad using the “select-a-speed” feature. With select-a-speed, each digit (1-9)  
represents a relative pan and tilt speed. The number 1 represents the slowest speed  
available while the number 9 speed equates to turbo pan (for those receivers capable of  
supporting turbo pan speed). When the number 9 is entered, the tilt will operate at the  
number 8 speed. Entering the number 0 sets a mid-range speed. The keyboard can also  
operate presets, auxiliaries, and patterns and can be used to program the multiplexer or  
server.

OPERATION  
IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT PROGRAMMING  
When the keyboard is plugged into a multiplexer or multiplexer server, the keyboard is  
ready to operate. However, some minimal programming may be required to  
make your system work.  
MULTIPLEXER  
The default settings for the duplex and simplex multiplexers are not the same, and it should  
not be assumed that there is nothing more to do after connecting the keyboard to the system.  
Below are the minimum things to check.  
1. To allow the keyboard to communicate with multiplexers in the polled mode (switch  
4 OFF), you must designate one multiplexer (any one) as the master and all the others  
as slaves. If you have just one multiplexer, it must be the master. In the non-polled  
communication mode (switch 4 ON), all multiplexers must be slaves (the keyboard is  
the master).  
Set the master/slave designation from the front panel of the  
multiplexer, not from the keyboard. Go to the Advanced System Setup menu  
(refer to multiplexer manual) and select master or slave in the COMM. TYPE menu item.  
The default is SLAVE for duplex multiplexers and MASTER (KBD T/D) for simplex  
multiplexers.  
8
Pelco Manual C581M-B (1/04)  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
2. If you have more than one multiplexer, each one must have its own address (Unit ID in  
the Advanced System Setup menu). If you have a server, the multiplexer address  
must match the input on the server to which it is connected; for example, if the multi-  
plexer is connected to input 3 on the server, set the multiplexer address to 3. Set the  
address from the front panel of the multiplexer, not from the key-  
board.  
3. If you have moveable cameras (they must be Coaxitron compatible), you must pro-  
gram the Coaxitron format for each camera (Camera menu). The duplex multiplexer  
COAXITRON FORMAT default setting is OFF, while the simplex default setting is  
EXTENDED. Programming can be done from the front panel of the multiplexer or from  
the keyboard (refer to the Programming section for keyboard instructions).  
MULTIPLEXER SERVER  
Below is the minimum you should check.  
If you intend to control two monitors from one keyboard (paired mode), you must change  
the settings for the monitors (Monitor menu). Programming the server can only be done  
from the keyboard. Refer to the server manual for instructions.  
IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT COAXITRONCONTROL OF CAMERAS  
The KBD4002 keyboard provides Coaxitroncontrol of pan, tilt, and lens functions.  
The duplex multiplexer COAXITRON FORMAT (refer to the Camera Setup section)  
default setting is OFF and must be changed in order to use Coaxitron control. The  
simplex multiplexer default setting is EXTENDED and 32-bit Coaxitron control can be  
used without changing the setting.  
When used with 15-bit standard Coaxitronreceivers, such as the CX9000 Series, the  
PT7700, and the ED25/27/28/29, the KBD4002 supports all pan, tilt, and lens functions,  
and AUX on/off. The keyboard will not set or call presets or support preset scanning.  
When used with 32-bit extended Coaxitron receivers, such as Esprit, Intercept ,  
Spectra, and LRD41C21/LRD41C22 Series, the KBD4002 will support all the functions  
above, including the setting and calling of presets and patterns. It will not support  
programming of preset or pattern labels. If labels for presets or patterns are required, they  
would need to be programmed with a different control, such as the MPT9500.  
IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT DIFFERENCES IN SIMPLEX AND  
DUPLEX MULTIPLEXER MODES OF OPERATION  
The simplex multiplexer has three modes of operation: live, VCR, and record.  
•
•
•
In the live mode, the main monitor can show live video both in full-screen or  
multiple-screen views. You cannot record in the live mode. The multiplexer’s  
DISPLAY/RECORD LED is OFF.  
In the VCR mode, the main monitor will show full-screen or multiple-screen views of  
videotape playback. You cannot record in the VCR mode. The multiplexer’s DISPLAY/  
RECORD LED is OFF.  
In the record mode, the main monitor will show live video of an individual camera in  
full-screen view only. You can record only when in the record mode. While recording,  
all cameras are being recorded simultaneously. The multiplexer’s DISPLAY/RECORD  
LED is ON.  
The duplex multiplexer has two modes of operation: live and VCR.  
•
In the live mode, the main monitor will show live video both in full-screen or  
multiple-screen views. You can record while in this mode. The multiplexer’s LIVE/VCR  
LED is ON.  
•
In the VCR mode, the main monitor will show full-screen or multiple-screen views of  
videotape playback. You can record in the VCR mode if you have a second VCR con-  
nected to the VCR OUT jack on the multiplexer. The multiplexer’s LIVE/VCR LED is OFF.

Spot Monitor Display  
If you want the spot monitor to switch to cameras that have alarms or activity  
detection, select BLANK, SEQUENCE, or TRACK MAIN, then under RESPONDS TO  
select ALARMS, ACTIVITY, or ALARMS/ACTIVITY. If you are using the spot monitor  
for normal video and you do not want alarms or activity detection to override what you  
are observing, select NONE.  
BLANK - Allows you to view an individual camera, but you cannot run a sequence. An  
alarm or activity detection will override the camera you are viewing. When the alarm or  
activity detection goes away, the screen will return to the camera you were viewing.  
SEQUENCE - Allows you to view an individual camera or run a sequence. An alarm or  
activity detection will override what you are observing. When the alarm or activity  
detection goes away, the screen will return to the camera or sequence you were  
viewing.  
TRACK MAIN - The spot monitor will follow the camera switching that occurs on the  
main monitor. This feature is used only when a KBD4002 keyboard is connected to the  
multiplexer for controlling moveable cameras. This mode provides an easy method of  
simplifying P/T/Z control in single-monitor applications. The operator does not have to  
switch to SPOT to gain P/T/Z control and there is no separate control of the spot  
monitor when in this mode. However, to do presets and patterns, switch to SPOT.  
Aux Monitor Display (Duplex Multiplexer Only)  
Select ALARMS, ACTIVITY, or ALARMS OR ACTIVITY if you want the auxiliary  
monitor to show cameras with alarms or activity detection. If you are using the  
auxiliary monitor to sequence all cameras and you do not want alarms or activity  
detection to override the sequence, select NONE.  
BLANK - This means the screen will remain blank unless there is an alarm or activity  
detection.  
SEQUENCE - This means the monitor will sequence all cameras unless there is an  
alarm or activity detection.  
CAM 1 through CAM 16 - This means the monitor will display the selected camera  
unless there is an alarm or activity detection.  
Camera Types  
The COLOR & B/W setting allows the multiplexer to adapt to the combination of both  
color and monochrome video signals. The switching speed of the multiplexer is not as  
fast when it has to change formats between monochrome and color cameras. For  
duplex monochrome models, you will not receive color from a color camera except  
on the SPOT or AUX monitor displays. For simplex monochrome models, you will  
not receive color from a color camera except in RECORD mode.  
CAUTION: When  
programming the  
MX4000  
The RESERVED setting can improve performance when using cameras with  
non-standard sync or poor video quality.  
Multiplexer from the  
Unit ID  
KBD4002 Keyboard, DO  
NOT ATTEMPT TO  
CHANGE THE UNIT ID.  
Changing the unit ID from  
the keyboard will interrupt  
the keyboard  
communications to the  
multiplexer, resulting in  
erratic multiplexer operation.  
Refer to the Troubleshooting  
section, in this manual to  
correct the situation.  
This is the address of the multiplexer. If your system has more than one multiplexer,  
each multiplexer must have its own address. This must be set at the multiplexer, not at  
the keyboard.  
Comm.Type  
In the polled communication mode (switch 4 OFF), one multiplexer (any one) must  
be the master. Only one multiplexer can be the master. All other multiplexers must be  
slaves. The master multiplexer communicates with the slave multiplexers.  
In the non-polled communication mode (switch 4 ON), all multiplexers must be  
slaves.  
The default is SLAVE for duplex multiplexers and MASTER (KBD T/D) for simplex  
multiplexers.

Relay Output  
Operates the relay on the back of the multiplexer. The relay is used to change the VCR  
to its alarm recording speed. In the alarms mode, an alarm signal is produced when a  
remote switch opens or closes a ground in the multiplexer; for example, if a switch is  
on a door and the door is opened. In the activity mode, the multiplexer continually  
monitors select camera inputs for motion. When motion is detected, the multiplexer  
increases the frequency with which that camera(s) is shown and recorded. Activity  
detection is most effective when only a few cameras are showing activity (refer to the  
Camera Setup section).

VCR Video Format  
This feature is not available on monochrome multiplexers. Composite is standard  
video on a coaxial cable. SVHS is higher resolution video on a special cable.  
VCR Switch Pulse  
ENABLED means the multiplexer waits for a head switching pulse from the VCR. If the  
multiplexer does not get a pulse from the VCR (because of a broken wire or the VCR  
does not give a pulse in some modes), it may appear that the multiplexer is not  
working properly.  
DISABLED means the VCR head switching pulse is not used.  
Alarm Handling  
Determines how alarms are recorded and for how long.

ACTIVITY DETECTION MASK SETUP  
Activity detection continually monitors selected camera inputs for motion. When motion is  
detected, the multiplexer increases the frequency with which that camera(s) is shown and  
recorded. Activity detection is most effective when only a few cameras are showing activity.  
As the number of cameras with activity increases, the slower the frequency at which they  
can be shown and recorded. If all 16 cameras show activity, there will be virtually no  
increase.  
The activity detection mask selects that portion or portions of the camera’s field of view that  
the multiplexer will monitor for motion. The entire grid is active on default.  
To program an activity detection mask for a camera:  
1. Press the MAIN MONITOR key.  
2. Select the camera.  
Addressing by Multiplexer (Switch 7 OFF)

TROUBLESHOOTING  
If you have difficulty operating your system, run through the following checklist to see if you  
can solve the problem.  
1. Are the keyboard switches set properly?  
2. Is the equipment wired properly?  
3. Are the menu options in the multiplexer(s) and server set properly?  
4. Has the multiplexer been set to the correct mode for live video or tape playback?  
5. Only the main monitor displays multiple screen images. The spot monitor displays full  
screen views only.  
6. Patterns, presets, and auxiliaries will work in both MAIN and SPOT MONITOR. When  
using the MAIN MONITOR, the SPOT MONITOR DISPLAY menu item in the Advanced  
System Setup menu must be set to TRACK MAIN.  
7. The auxiliary monitor (duplex multiplexer only) is controlled by programming. You  
cannot control it from the keyboard or from the front panel of the multiplexer.  
8. Tape playback can be done only on the main monitor (in VCR mode).  
9. Moveable cameras must be Coaxitroncompatible and the proper Coaxitron format se-  
lected in the Camera menu of the multiplexer. If the proper format is not selected, the  
camera will either not move or have sluggish control.  
10. Moveable cameras can be operated with the pan/tilt keys only if SPOT MONITOR is  
chosen or if the spot monitor is programmed to track the main monitor. The camera  
will move on the main monitor if the same camera is being shown on both the main  
and spot monitors.  
11. The position of switch 7 on the keyboard determines how you call cameras.  
If the switch is ON, all cameras are addressed consecutively. Do not count just the  
cameras installed. Count 16 camera inputs per multiplexer, even if a multiplexer has  
only 9 inputs. The first input of multiplexer 1 is always camera 1, the first input of  
multiplexer 2 is always camera 17, the second input of multiplexer 3 is always camera  
34.  
If the switch is OFF, cameras are addressed in groups 9 or 16 according to the  
address of the multiplexer. Select a multiplexer (for example, number 3), then choose  
a camera (1-9 or 1-16).  
12. In the polled communication mode (switch 4 OFF), if you have one multiplexer, it must  
be the master. If you have more than one multiplexer, one of them (any one) must be  
the master and all the others slaves. In the non-polled mode (switch 4 ON), all  
multiplexers must be slaves. Refer to the Advanced System Setup menu of the  
multiplexer.  
13. If you have more than one multiplexer, they must have different addresses (Advanced  
System Setup menu of multiplexer).  
14. If you have a server, the address of the multiplexer must correspond to the input it is  
connected to on the server. For example, if the multiplexer goes to input 4 on the  
server, the multiplexer must be address 4.  
15. If you have a server, each keyboard must have its own address.  
16. If you have a server, each keyboard controls its corresponding monitor(s). In the  
SINGLE mode, keyboard 1 controls monitor 1, keyboard 2 controls monitor 2, etc.  
In the PAIRED mode, keyboard 1 controls monitor 1 (main) and monitor 2 (spot), and  
keyboard 3 controls monitor 3 (main) and monitor 4 (spot). In the paired mode,  
keyboards 2 and 4 are not used.  
17. If you have a server and cannot change between full screen and multiple screen views  
on the main monitor, check the MAIN MONITOR CONTROL setting in the Monitor  
menu of the server.

18. If the UNIT ID, in the ADVANCED SYSTEM SETUP menu, is inadvertently changed at  
the keyboard resulting in an uncontrollable sequencing of unit ID numbers and loss of  
keyboard control:  
a. Go to the multiplexer and press the down arrow button. The sequencing should  
stop. Exit the menu, then return to the ADVANCED SYSTEM SETUP menu and  
change the UNIT ID back to 001. Continue normal programming from the key-  
board.  
OR  
b. If the multiplexer is remotely located away from the keyboard, wait until the  
numbers sequence to the correct multiplexer unit ID number and immediately  
press any pan/tilt key. The sequencing should stop. Continue normal program-  
ming from the keyboard.
