FastAddress
The G3 FastAddress feature allows the AutoDome’s
cameras to be addressed (or the address may be
changed) using a keyboard and on-screen menus
instead of using the switch address (thumbwheel). If
FastAddress is not used, the camera’s address defaults
to the address indicated by the thumbwheel switches.
Conversely, if FastAddress has been programmed, the
thumbwheel switches are ignored.
There are two commands used to address the
AutoDome using the FastAddress feature:
1. All domes that have not already been configured
using FastAddress will respond to the “On-999-
Enter” command. Additionally, if the address of a
previously configured dome matches the camera
number at the keyboard, that dome will also
respond to the command.
2. All domes respond to the “On-998-Enter” com-
mand, regardless of their FastAddress status.
NOTE: In systems with multiple monitors, other
domes may also enter the FastAddress mode. As
commands (which are unique for each dome) are
entered, the other domes automatically exit the
FastAdress mode, and only the target dome remains
active. Following are some instances when
FastAddress would be used:
1. New or existing installation of an AutoDome(s):
a. Set the keyboard to display the camera, for
example,“Camera-3-Enter” (where 3 is the cam-
era whose address you’re changing/identifying).
b. Press “On-999-Enter,” and follow the instruc-
tions on the screen (see Figure FA1).
REMINDER: All domes that have not already been
configured using FastAddress will respond to
“On-999-Enter.”
