System Overview
1. INTRODUCTION
The Pelco CM9760-GUI Graphics Controller is a new development in CCTV user interfaces. The Graphic
Controller replaces a mimic panel with a windows based graphics system run on a PC.
The Graphic Controller contains maps that are used as backgrounds for installation/sites. Multiple maps
can be used to represent divided or multistory complexes. Buttons are programmed onto these maps. When
a button is clicked with the mouse, it activates a camera/monitor switch, or loads a new map onto the
screen.
This manual details installation and operation instructions for the CM9760-GUI Graphic Controller pro-
gram.
