1.2.1 Administrator Main Functions
The Administrator’s main functions are to make sure:
⇒ The maps are drawn to accurately represent the area/s to be supervised (this can be done by a
computer-whiz and then loaded in)
⇒ That operators have access to the functions they will require (usually the Program and
Screen menus) while being restricted from others
⇒ The “Area” and “Camera/Macro” and “Alarm” buttons (or “hotspots”) are configured cor-
rectly.
1.2.2 “Area” and “Camera/Macro” and “Alarm” Buttons (or “Hotspots”) Explained
These buttons, when programmed effectively, can make using the 9760 GUI very simple, quick, effective,
and easy to learn for any operator (including those unfamiliar with CCTV installations).
1.2.3 Area Buttons
Area buttons provide a quick method of selecting another map. When the mouse is clicked on an Area but-
ton a sub-map of that particular area will come on screen (e.g., the basement) complete with associated
camera and alarm hotspots (and more Area hotspots if applicable).
1.2.4 Camera Macro Buttons
Camera Macro buttons (also known as Camera mimic buttons) are used to select cameras to display on a
monitor or on the computer screen. Clicking on a camera macro button can also set in train a series of cam-
era/monitor switches (if these have been programmed).
1.2.5 Alarm Buttons
An Alarm button flashes when the alarm it represents has been activated.
NOTE: To program (or “place”) these button/hotspots into the map/s is a simple procedure and is
done through the Button and Map menus. For full details see the 9760-GUI Manual.
