Programming
The CM6800 features easy programming through on-screen menus or the Windows®-based CM6800-MGR software package. All
programming is password-protected. Programming menus are provided in English, French, German, Italian, Polish, Portuguese,
Russian, and Spanish.
Keyboards
Up to eight keyboards from the KBD100/200A/300A Series and two keyboards from the KBD960/KBR960 Series can be connected to the
CM6800-32X6. Camera positioning can be programmed and controlled from the KBD200A/300A and KBD960/KBR960 Series keyboards.
Refer to
Associated Equipment
for keyboard descriptions.
NOTE: You can program the CM6800 with the KBD200A/300A keyboard while in “CM6800 Mode” only (if you use “CM6800 ASCII
Mode,” you can control the CM6800 switcher, but you cannot program it).
Sequences, Macros, Presets, Patterns, and Zones
The CM6800 features the following programmed operations:
A sequence allows operators to see a routine of 72 camera views on any system monitor over and over again. The sequence can be
operated automatically or manually.
A scratchpad sequence allows an operator to run a sequence from an individual monitor without entering the password-protected
programming menus.
A macro is a sequence of commands or steps. When a macro is run, the steps programmed into that macro are performed. Macros can be
operated automatically or manually. Automatic operation can be based on specific times or dates. Macros can also be triggered by alarms.
The following operations are available only with positionable cameras controlled by KBD200A/KBD300A or KBD960/KBR960 keyboards:
A preset allows operators to direct a PTZ (camera positioning system) to move to a predetermined scene on keyboard command or
as a result of an alarm. In addition, a preset can place a descriptive title on the monitor screen. The number of presets available is
determined by the camera positioning system.
With a pattern operators can program a camera positioning system to move around its viewing area in a repeating pattern. The
number and time length of patterns varies with different positioning systems.
A zone is a user-defined, physical location to which (1) a label is attached and (2) a camera is associated. When the associated
camera is panned through or remains within this defined zone, the zone label appears on the monitor.
Interface Control
The CM6800 interfaces with the following:
• Coaxitron® standard mode (15-bit) and extended mode (32-bit) protocol receivers
•Pelco’s D and P protocol receivers (RS-422)
• Pelco’s M protocol devices (RS-485)
C1522M-C (2/05) 9
System Access and Priority
The CM6800 provides the following ways to restrict system access:
•Camera to Monitor: Cameras can be assigned to specific monitors for viewing.
•Keyboard to Monitor: Keyboards can be assigned to control specific monitors.
•Camera to Keyboard:
-Viewing: Keyboards can be assigned view-only access to specific cameras (no PTZ control).
-Control: Keyboards can be assigned full access (both PTZ control and viewing) to specific cameras.
The CM6800 provides eight levels of priority control. Each level defines the ability of a keyboard to control a camera positioning system
(KBD200A/KBD300A or KBD960/KBR960 only) and to access programming screens.
Alarm Inputs
Eight internal alarm inputs are provided on the rear panel of the matrix switcher/controller. These internal alarm inputs are programmable
to associate any camera to any input.
Up to two ALM2064 Alarm Interface Units can be connected to the CM6800. Each alarm interface unit can handle up to 64 alarms, for a
total of 128 external alarms.
Auxiliary Outputs
Two internal auxiliary outputs are provided on the back of the CM6800-32X6. One is a relay output, and one is an open collector (TTL)
output. You can also connect up to two REL2064 Relay Interface Units.
Power, Mounting Methods
The CM6800 operates on 120V or 230V, 50/60 Hz. The case mounts in three rack units (5.25 inches or 13.34 cm) of vertical space in a
universal mount, such as a 19-inch (48.26 cm) equipment bay, or to a wall or tabletop.
Continuous Operating Device
The CM6800 is a self-contained video surveillance system designed for continuous duty operation. Once installed, there are no user or
service technician items that require intervention which would require the system to go off-line or have the power turned off under normal
operation. There are two methods for system programming: direct menu control and indirect control, using a Windows®-based setup
program supplied by Pelco. Both of these methods are noninvasive and do not require the cycling of power in order for storage or
execution of new software settings. The communication ports use standard low voltage interfaces such as RS-232, RS-422 and RS-485,
and all connections and disconnections do not require rebooting or power cycling. Video connections or changes of termination state do
not require rebooting or power cycling.

VIDEO SOURCES
The CM6800-32X6 offers 32 full-function video inputs which support Coaxitron PTZ control and video loss detection. The video inputs can
be used for looping video connections with terminating and unterminating switches on the back panel. They also provide the ability to
view and interface with other devices, such as Genex multiplexers. If control of the device connected to the video input is required,
connect a data cable between the multiplexer and the CM6800. Refer to the
Connecting Genex Multiplexers
section for instructions on
connecting and controlling video from a multiplexer.
Figure 4. CM6800-32X6 Video Inputs
1. Connect video cables at the appropriate video input BNC receptacles on the back of the CM6800. For best results, use crimp-on
BNCs only. Do not use screw-on BNCs; these typically do not provide adequate ground and signal connections.

CONTROL LINES
You cannot connect a Coaxitron camera to the PTZ port. If your video sources are all controlled by Coaxitron, skip this section.
Connect camera control lines to receivers. If any of your video sources are using D or P protocol via RS-422 communications, they will
connect at the PTZ connector on the back of the CM6800-32X6.
NOTE: D and P protocol receivers cannot be mixed on the same communication port but you can use D on one port and P on the other.
Daisy-chaining (going from one receiver to another) is recommended but not always possible. A maximum of 16 receivers can be daisy-
chained from the PTZ port. If more than 16 receivers are required for your system, or if you do not want to daisy-chain the receiver
connections, use the CM9760-CDU-T. You can connect up to two CM9760-CDU-T units to the CM6800-32X6.
NOTE: After completing system installation and power-up, you must configure the CM6800 and the camera/receiver. Refer to the System
Start-Up section.

ALARMS
The CM6800 provides numerous alarm handling options. Refer to the
Programming
section for a detailed description.
1. Connect wires from the sensors to the respective alarm input points on the connectors at the back of the CM6800. Each sensor
requires two wires – one wire to the alarm input terminal and a return wire to one of the ground terminals on the connector. The
CM6800 supports eight internal alarms.
Alarm sensors can be either N.O. (normally open) or N.C. (normally closed) contacts. The CM6800 is set to N.O. as a factory default.
2. If your system requires more than eight alarms, connect an ALM2064 unit to the system. Refer to the

LOCAL AUXILIARIES
The CM6800-32X6 provides two local auxiliary (AUX) outputs on the rear panel for controlling VCRs, printers, and other devices. These
outputs can be activated directly from a keyboard by using the F1 and F2 function keys, or they can be activated by an alarm (determined
by programming). Both relay contacts and TTL outputs are used.
In addition, you can connect up to two REL2064 Relay Interface Units to the CM6800. Note that since operation of the two internal
auxiliary relays on the CM6800-32X6 will also operate the first two relays on the external unit, the maximum capacity of the system may
be limited to 128 auxiliaries (depending on how you number the external relays). Refer to the
Connecting a Single REL2064 Relay Interface
Unit
section for connection instructions.
Connecting Relay Contacts – AUX 1
AUX 1 is a dry contact relay output. Terminal connections are provided for both normally open (N.O.) and normally closed (N.C.) contacts.
Refer to Figure 23 for wiring details. Note that this figure shows the wiring for a normally open contact. For a normally closed contact,
move the wire from the N.O. terminal to the the N.C. terminal.
Do not exceed the voltage and current ratings for the relay contacts.
You will need to provide an external power source to operate your device. In most cases you will also need an external current limiting
resistor. The formula for calculating the resistor value is given in Figure 23.

ALARM PROGRAMMING
Alarmed cameras can be displayed on one or several monitors as part of one or several alarm groups (each monitor can display only one
alarm group.)
Before programming alarm settings note the following precautions:
•Verify that no automated system functions are set to run, such as a macro that would arm or disarm an alarm.
• Ensure that system operators do not arm or disarm any alarms while you are programming alarm settings.
NOTE: You cannot access the Alarm Contacts screen when an alarm is active. If an alarm is triggered while you are in the CM6800
programming screens, the system will exit the on-screen programming function and display the alarm on the appropriate monitor(s).
Complete the following steps to program alarms:
1. Program the alarm display format for each alarm group. An alarm can include up to eight steps, so eight camera views could display
as a part of each alarm. Refer to
Program Alarm Groups
.
2. Program the individual alarm contact. Refer to
Program an Internal or External Alarm Contact
.
PROGRAM ALARM GROUPS
Use the Alarm Group screen to configure alarm groups to appear on system monitors. To display on a monitor, an alarm must be assigned
to an alarm group.
Figure 30. Program Alarm Groups
Specify the display option for up to six alarm groups. Refer to the on-screen Help or to the Alarm Group Display Options in the
Appendix
for a description of each display option.

CAMERA PROGRAMMING
Extended Coaxitron protocol receivers can be operated without any programming changes, other than changing the camera title, if
necessary. For other receiver control protocols, you must select the control type for the device connected to each video input.
If necessary, first program logical camera number.
PROGRAM LOGICAL NUMBERS
Default logical numbers start at 0001 and continue sequentially to 0032. To use a different numbering scheme, program new numbers on
the Logical Camera Number screen.
Figure 34. Program Logical Camera Numbers
The numbers in the PHY columns are the physical input numbers; each represents an actual BNC input on the rear panel of the CM6800
and cannot be changed.
In the LOG field for each physical camera input, assign a valid logical number (0001-9998). A valid number is any number from 0001 to
9998 that has not already been assigned to a physical camera input.
NOTE: If you change a logical number, you cannot control the camera until you select the new logical number from the keyboard.

The CM6800 provides eight levels of priority control. Each level defines the ability of a keyboard to control a pan/tilt/zoom (camera
positioning system) and to access programming screens.
Priority level applies system wide; a keyboard assigned priority level 2 on COM port 5 has a higher priority than a keyboard assigned priority level
4 on COM port 4. A higher level keyboard takes precedence over a lower level keyboard when the keyboards are issuing control commands.
Figure 42. Access the Priority Screen
PORT: Select the COM port number for which you are programming priority control.
PRIORITY: For each keyboard connected to the specified port, assign a priority level (01-08).
OPTIONS:
Level 1 = highest priority
Level 8 = lowest priority
Levels 1 - 3 have the ability to access programming screens. Levels 4-8 cannot access programming screens. The lowest
level or keyboards located at the same level will access devices on first-come, first-served basis.
NOTE: If you connect an ASCII keyboard/device to the CM6800 (COM port 1, 2, or 4), you can connect only one keyboard to a port. For
ASCII keyboards, priority control is based on the entry for keyboard 1.
SEQUENCE
The CM6800 provides two types of sequences:
•An operator can program a scratchpad sequence from an individual monitor, without accessing password-protected programming
screens.
•System sequences are password-protected and can run on any system monitor.

ALARM GROUP DISPLAY OPTIONS
To display on a monitor, an alarm must be assigned to an alarm group (A-F). Before programming alarms you may want to determine the
alarm display format for each alarm group. An alarm can include up to eight steps, so eight camera views could display as a part of each
alarm.
A priority alarm appears on system monitors before non-priority alarms, despite the order specified by the alarm group assignment. In the
following examples, all alarms are at the same priority level. Refer to the PRIORITY description in
Program Internal and External Alarms
.
Block Build
Alarmed cameras are displayed across a block of alarm monitors in a sequential order. All steps programmed for the alarm contact appear
on the designated monitor.
Example: Seven alarms set to display on monitors 02-06 will appear in the following order:
1st Display Next Display Acknowledging Next Display
Monitor Cycle Cycle Alarms 1 & 2 Cycle
02 B 1st alarm 1st and 7th Acknowledge 7th alarm
alarms cycle 1st alarm
03 B 2nd alarm 2nd and 8th Acknowledge 8th alarm
alarms cycle 2nd alarm
04 B 3rd alarm 3rd alarm 3rd alarm 3rd alarm
05 B 4th alarm 4th alarm 4th alarm 4th alarm
06 B 5th alarm 5th alarm 5th alarm 5th alarm
07 B 6th alarm 6th alarm 6th alarm 6th alarm
New alarms display on the lowest monitor number with the fewest alarms cycling.
Chronological Pair: D and Q
The oldest alarm of a specific group is displayed on one designated monitor, while all other alarms in the group are sequenced on the
second designated monitor. All steps programmed for the alarm contact appear on the designated monitor.
Example: Four alarms set to display on monitors 04 and 05 will appear in the following order:
Monitor 1 Alarm 2 Alarms 3 Alarms 4 Alarms
04 D 1st alarm 1st alarm 1st alarm 1st alarm
05 Q 2nd alarm 2nd and 3rd 2nd, 3rd, and 4th
alarms cycle alarms cycle
You must acknowledge alarms in a chronological pair from the display monitor (D).
Then the next oldest alarm moves to the display monitor and the remaining alarms
continue to cycle through the queue monitor (Q). This format requires you to acknowl-
edge each alarm in the order in which they occur.
Acknowledging alarms in this example:
Monitor 1st Cycle Next Cycle Next Cycle Next Cycle

Reverse Chronological Pair: M and L
The most recent alarm of a specific group is displayed on one designated monitor, while all other alarms in the group are sequenced on
the second designated monitor. All steps programmed for the alarm contact appear on the designated monitor.
Example: Four alarms set to display on monitors 04 and 05 will appear in the following order:
Monitor 1 Alarm 2 Alarms 3 Alarms 4 Alarms
06 M 1st alarm 2nd alarm 3rd alarm 4th alarm
07 L 1st alarm 1st and 2nd 1st, 2nd, and 3rd
alarms cycle alarms cycle
You must acknowledge alarms in a reverse chronological pair from the display
monitor (M). Then the next most recent alarm moves to the display monitor and the
remaining alarms continue to cycle through the queue monitor (L). This format
requires you to acknowledge each alarm in the reverse order from which they
occurred.
Acknowledging alarms in this example:
Monitor 1st Cycle Next Cycle Next Cycle Next Cycle
06 M Acknowledge Acknowledge Acknowledge Acknowledge
Alarm 4 Alarm 3 Alarm 2 Alarm 1
07 L Alarms 1, 2, Alarms 1 Alarm 1
and 3 cycle and 2 cycle
Salvo Group
Multiple camera views within the alarm contact programming (the “steps”) are displayed simultaneously as a group across a set of
monitors. When a new alarm triggers, all monitors switch to the new alarm at the same time.
When programming a Salvo Group:
• Program the Salvo Group to display across a number of monitors equal to the number of steps in the alarm contact(s); for example if
the alarm contact has six steps, set the Salvo Group to display on six monitors. If an alarm contact contains more steps than
monitors defined for the Salvo Group, the additional steps do not appear on a monitor during the alarm.
• Each alarm contact assigned to the Salvo Group should contain the same number of steps.
• The Salvo Group switches based on the dwell time entered for the first step in the alarm contact.
Example: Two alarm contacts with three steps set to display on three monitors will appear as follows:
Monitor 1 Alarm 2 Alarms Next Display Cycle After Acknowledging 1st Alarm
06 S 1st alarm, step 1 2nd alarm, step 1 1st alarm, step 1 2nd alarm, step 1
07 S 1st alarm, step 2 2nd alarm, step 2 1st alarm, step 2 2nd alarm, step 2

ASCII OPERATING COMMANDS
ASCII protocol uses the ASCII character set to transmit and receive commands between an ASCII device (such as a personal computer (PC)
or ASCII keyboard) and the CM6800.
The ASCII protocol communicates in a standard asynchronous, byte-oriented protocol that includes: 1 start bit, 8 data bits, 1 parity bit (odd
parity), and 1 stop bit. The default communication rate is 9600 baud.
A lowercase “a” ends each command. The ASCII translator acknowledges accepted commands and rejected commands with the following
responses:
AKa command accepted
NAa command rejected or the ASCII translator does not recognize the command
If the command requires a numeric value, enter the number first.
Table I provides examples of ASCII commands. Table J lists all of the commands.

These commands start and stop scans.
Auxiliaries are relay outputs that can be controlled through the protocol. 1-2
operate the AUX 1 and F2 auxiliaries on the rear panel of the CM6800 (and the
first two auxiliaries on an external REL2064). 3-128 operate the external
auxiliaries on up to two REL2064 Relay Interface Units.
Operates auxiliaries at the camera (receiver).
Starts the selected macro.
Stops the selected macro.
Acknowledges an existing alarm.
These commands arm and disarm system alarms.
An ASCII device can send these commands through the CM6800 to control
alarms in an external alarm device, such as an ALM2064 Alarm Interface Unit.
NOTE: These commands do not affect internal alarms on the CM6800 rear
panel.
If you configure a CM6800 Port to report alarms to an ASCII device, the CM6800
reports the alarm information using these commands.
NOTE: The CM6800-32X6 reports the physical alarm number. If you use the
eight internal alarm inputs on the rear panel, do not use the first eight inputs on
any external alarm interface units (ALM2064), or you will have a numbering
conflict.
These commands control a Genex multiplexer connected to the CM6800.
Sends a camera title to the matrix switching system. You can only send one
camera title at a time.
Valid characters in the string are A-Z, a-z, space, and 0-9 in ASCII representa-
tion. Strings are limited to 20 characters.
Returns the version number of the device.
Sets the date and time. Since the date and time string could be confused with
other commands, the command Za comes first. This puts the receiving device

TROUBLESHOOTING
GAINING INITIAL CONTROL
If you are having problems gaining control of your system for the first time:
• Confirm that all system equipment is plugged in and has power.
•Confirm that each keyboard and peripheral device in your system has a unique local address. Refer to the
Switch Settings
section in
the appropriate keyboard manual.
•Be sure data cables have not been mixed up.
•Cycle the data cable to the keyboard:
1. Unplug the data cable from the rear of the keyboard.
2. Plug the data cable back into the rear of the keyboard.
3. WAIT AT LEAST FIVE SECONDS.
4. Select a monitor.
If you still cannot gain control of the system:
•Confirm the wiring is correct and the user-supplied cable between wall jacks is appropriate for the application.
•Confirm that when the keyboard data cable is cycled, the keyboard LED flashes momentarily (indicating power).
If you still cannot gain control of the system, call Pelco’s 24-hour technical support at 1-800-289-9100 or 1-559-292-1981.
NOTE: There are no userserviceable parts inside the CM6800. Only authorized service personnel may open the unit.
SOFTWARE RESET
Pelco strongly recommends uploading system settings to the CM6800-MGR before the software reset – this will allow you to restore
system settings after the software reset.
CAUTION: Resetting the software restores the system to default settings.
1. Remove the two screws and the DIP switch cover plate from the rear of the
matrix switcher.
2. Move DIP switch 7 to the ON position (to “0”).
3. Cycle power.
The switcher will go through a software clear cycle and reset to factory
defaults.
4. Move DIP switch 7 to the OFF position.
Failure to move DIP switch 7 to the OFF position could result in loss of system
settings during a power outage.
5. Re-initialize keyboards by entering the monitor number and then pressing the
MON key.
6. Download your previous system settings (revise settings as necessary) from
the CM6800-MGR.

GLOSSARY
Term Definition
Access The CM6800 allows you to restrict system control by (1) limiting the monitors or cameras a keyboard
can access, or (2) limiting the cameras that can be viewed on a monitor.
Alarm display format The CM6800 Matrix Switcher provides four formats for displaying alarmed cameras on system
monitors: Block Build, Chronological Pair, Reverse Chronological Pair, and Salvo Group.
Alarm group To display on a monitor, an alarm must be assigned to one or more alarm groups. The CM6800-32X6
Matrix Switcher provides six alarm groups (A through F). Refer to Alarm Groups and Alarm Group
Display Options.
Alarm priority A priority alarm appears on system monitors before a non-priority alarm. Refer to the Priority
description under Internal and External Alarms.
ASCII The binary, 7-bit, 128-character set implemented as the standard in communications.
Auxiliary Output relays can be used to control external devices based on matrix switcher activities. External
devices can include VCRs, alarm devices, and triggers for audio circuits.
Baud rate In video, the greater the speed, the larger amount of information passed. In digital systems, this
capacity is given in bits per second, or baud rates.
Bit An abbreviation for “binary digit” – the smallest unit of information a computer can use. A bit is either
a 1 or a 0 (a high or low voltage state).
Byte An abbreviation for “binary term” – bytes are strings of bits, operated upon as a unit. A byte is equal to
eight bits (256 possibilities) and is large enough to hold one character (like an “A” or the number “1”.)
Camera auxiliary Some cameras contain an auxiliary output relay, which can be used to operate a device connected to
the relay.
Coaxitron This is Pelco’s “up the coax” control technology. Control signals are sent back up the coaxial cable that
the video signal travels down on.
COM port This is a communication port input on the rear panel of the matrix switcher.
Daisy-chain This is a way of providing multiple connections in a series, from one source. A daisy-chain
configuration connects multiple, linked devices from one output. When connecting PTZ cameras to a
matrix switcher, for example, one set of cables connects the matrix switcher to each receiver, and
then each receiver is connected to the next receiver.
Dwell This is the amount of time something happens in the system, such as the amount of time a camera
view displays on a monitor, or an auxiliary is on.
Event timer The matrix switcher can automatically initiate macros or sequences based on time and date.
Extended Coaxitron This is Pelco’s Coaxitron control technology that uses 32 bits to send a command.
Frame scan A three-second camera scan followed by a three-second pause.
Latching operation The auxiliary device remains on until a command is given (by a system operator or system automation)
to turn it off.
Logical camera number A user-selectable, variable number, which is associated with an actual physical camera input on the
rear panel of the matrix switcher.
Macro A sequence of commands or steps. Macros can be operated automatically or manually. Automatic
operation can be based on specific times or dates (set through the Event Timer).
74 C1522M-C (2/05)
Matrix switcher This is also known as a cross-point switcher. The cross-points are actually electronic switches that
select any video input onto any video output at any one time, preserving the video impedance
matching. One video signal can simultaneously be selected on more than one output. More than one
video input can be selected on one output, in a sequential switching between inputs (unless the input
is routed through a multiplexer, which allows more than one input to be viewed on the output monitor
at any one time).
Momentary operation The auxiliary output operation is activated briefly and then turns off.
Multiplexer (MUX) A multiplexer allows an operator to view more than one video signal (usually either four, nine or
sixteen signals) at one time on a single monitor. A multiplexer can also send these multiple images to
the video recorder, switching rapidly between image from each camera.
NTSC The American color TV standard, used in North America, Japan, and a few other countries. It specifies
525 lines/screen, and 29-30 frames/sec.
Null modem cable A null modem cable allows you to connect your PC to another nearby PC or serial device by “crossing
over” (reversing) their respective pin contacts. (A null modem cable is limited to 30 feet in length.)
PAL The color TV standard (50Hz) used by European, Asian, and some Latin American countries. It specifies
768 pixels/line, 576 lines/screen and 25 frames/sec.
Parity type The parity bit is used to identify whether the bits being moved arrived successfully. Parity bit checking
can be based on odd or even bits. No parity means that a parity bit is not transmitted or checked.
Pattern A pattern is a user-defined, viewable camera path with a definite beginning and end. The pattern can
consist of any standard pan and tilt or lens command. Once defined, the pattern is easily activated by
a system operator or through an automated event. The pattern will run continuously until it is
deactivated. The number and time length of patterns varies with different positioning systems.
Physical input A number representing an actual BNC camera input on the rear panel of the matrix switcher. This
number cannot be changed.
Preset A preset allows operators to direct a PTZ (camera positioning system) to move to a predetermined
scene on keyboard command or as a result of an alarm. In addition to moving the camera, a
descriptive title can appear on the screen. The type of camera positioning system determines the
number of presets available.
Priority control This is the level of priority a system keyboard has to control a PTZ camera positioning system and to
access CM6800 Matrix Switcher on-screen programming menus.
PTZ This is a camera positioning system with pan, tilt, and zoom capabilities.
Random scan This is a camera scan moving in a random pattern.
RJ-45 wall block This is a wall block with eight terminals for connecting RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 communication
lines. (This is Pelco part number CON12J00820360Z.)
RS-232 This is an Electronics Industry Association (EIA) interface standard used for data communication; the
normal connection distance is 50 feet (15 m). Pelco uses this standard for communication from a
controller to a PC or RS-232 network. The Pelco three-wire connection provides one wire for transmit,
one wire for receive, and one wire for common.
C1522M-C (2/05) 75
RS-422 This is an Electronics Industry Association (EIA) interface standard. Pelco uses this standard for
communication from a controller to one or more camera receivers (on the same line); the maximum
recommended distance is 4,000 feet (1,219 m).
The four-wire connection provides two wires for transmit and two wires for receive. Pelco receiver/
driver communication uses only the two transmit wires (commands are sent from the controller to the
receiver only; the receiver does not “talk” back to the controller). Pelco keyboard communication uses
all four wires.
NOTE: The electrical communication scheme used by Pelco is a direct-coupled method, not an AC-
coupled method. Therefore, if the ground potential of the wire at its two end points is different (other
than zero volts), an additional wire is required as a ground.
RS-485 This is an Electronics Industry Association (EIA) interface standard used for communication between
multiple transmitters and receivers; the maximum recommended distance is 4,000 feet (1,219 m). The
four-wire connection provides two wires for transmit and two wires for receive.
NOTE: The electrical communication scheme used by Pelco is a direct-coupled method, not an AC-
coupled method. Therefore, if the ground potential of the wire at its two end points is different (other
than zero volts), an additional wire is required as a ground.
Scratchpad sequence A scratchpad sequence can be run on an individual system monitor, without entering the password-
protected CM6800 Matrix Switcher on-screen programming menus. You can program scratchpad
sequences from the CM6800 Matrix Switcher on-screen programming menus only, not from the
CM6800-MGR software.
Sequence Allows an operator to see a routine of 72 camera views on any system monitor, over and over again.
The sequence can be operated automatically or manually. The order in which the camera views
appear and the time each view remains can be programmed.
Standard Coaxitron This is Pelco’s Coaxitron control technology that uses 15 bits to send a command.
Star configuration This is a way of providing multiple direct connections from one source. A star configuration uses a
separate cable for each direct connection, with all of the cables connected to a central device. When
connecting PTZ cameras to a matrix switcher, for example, the central device can be a code distribution
unit, such as the CM9760-CDU-T. Each camera has a direct connection to the CM9760-CDU-T, which is
the central device.
Synchronize Since the CM6800 can be programmed from either the CM6800-MGR software or the CM6800
programming menus, the two programming sources could potentially have different settings. Pelco
recommends that you always synchronize programming changes between the CM6800-MGR and the
CM6800. Refer to
Transmit Programming Settings
in the CM6800-MGR Installation/Operation Manual.
System keyboard This is a keyboard compatible with and connected to the matrix switcher, allowing a system operator
manual control over the system.
System reset This restores the system to the default settings, as shipped from the factory.
Vertical drive/synchronization This option sends a timing pulse from the matrix switcher to a compatible camera. The camera aligns
the vertical synchronization with the timing pulse.
Zone A zone is a user-defined, physical location to which (1) a label is attached and (2) a camera is
associated. When the associated camera is panned through or remains within this defined zone, the
zone label appears on the monitor. With some camera systems, a zone can be blanked to prevent
viewing while the camera is positioned in the zone.
