These systems can be programmed with up to 60 sequences that can be run inde-
pendently of each other, in either a forward or reverse direction. Any of the
sequences can utilize the SalvoSwitching capability where any number of system
monitors may be selected to switch as a synchronized group. Using the optional LTC
8059/00 Master Control Software (MCS) package or the LTC 8850/00 Bosch Graph-
ical User Interface (GUI), sequences can be made to activate and deactivate auto-
matically, based upon the time of day and the day of week.

With the addition of an external LTC 8540/00 Alarm Interface unit, an external con-
tact closure or logic level can be used to automatically display any camera. Any mon-
itor or group of monitors can be set to display cameras under alarm conditions. The
base system contains three (3) built-in alarm response modes: basic, auto-build,
and sequence and display. In addition to these three (3) modes, the PC based soft-
ware packages offer the ability to combine any or all three (3) standard modes.
Alarm video may be selected to reset either manually or automatically. In addition, a
16-character alarm title can be selected to appear instead of the camera title during
alarm conditions.
