ASCII DEVICE PROPERTIES EXPOSED FOR SCRIPTS AND EXPRESSIONS
The following tables list Pelco ASCII device properties that can be used in scripts and expressions. 
For instructions on creating user-defined presets and patterns for ASCII cameras, refer to Scripts in the Client Operation Manual. To see newly 
created presets and patterns in the ASCII camera’s read and write properties in the Object Browser, you must force the server to update its read/
write property lists for that device. To do this, open the Edit Driver Properties dialog box for that driver, and then click Synchronize.

Preset
NoPreset
The camera’s current view is not the result of a preset.
<preset i >
The camera’s current view results from going to this user-defined preset. This value is created 
when you create the preset. Note that “i ” equals the preset number, which can range from 1 to 
the maximum number available in the camera.
Pattern
NoPattern
The camera is not currently running a pattern.
<pattern i >
The camera is currently running this user-defined pattern. This value is created when you create 
the pattern. Note that “i ” equals the pattern number, which can range from 1 to the maximum 
number available in the camera.

Preset
DontCare
When a SET statement with a FOR clause causes a camera to go to a preset, the camera is locked 
in the preset view for the duration specified in the FOR clause. The lock is automatically released 
once the specified duration has elapsed. Setting the Preset write property to DontCare releases 
the lock prior to the specified time, allowing the camera view to be changed immediately. 
For information on locking ASCII cameras, refer to Devices in the Client Operation Manual.
<preset i >
Go to this user-defined preset. This value is created when you create the preset. Note that “i ” 
equals the preset number, which can range from 1 to the maximum number available in the 
camera.
Pattern
DontCare
When a SET statement with a FOR clause runs a pattern, the pattern runs for at least the dura-
tion specified in the FOR clause. Setting the Pattern property to DontCare releases the camera 
from having to run the pattern for the specified duration, allowing the pattern to be stopped. 
Setting Pattern to DontCare does not itself terminate the pattern; it simply enables the pattern 
to be stopped. 
For information on locking ASCII cameras, refer to Devices in the Client Operation Manual.
<pattern i >
Run this user-defined pattern. This value is created when you create the pattern. Note that “i ” 
equals the pattern number, which can range from 1 to the maximum number available in the 
camera.
Alarm
True (1)
Set Alarm to True to indicate the camera is in an alarm state. Camera icons flash in the alarm 
colors when Alarm is True.
False (0)
Set Alarm to False to indicate the camera is not in an alarm state. 
Auxiliaryi
On
Turn on the camera’s Auxiliaryi feature. Note that “i” equals the auxiliary number, which can 
range from 1 to the maximum number available in the camera. Renaming the auxiliary renames 
this property. Refer to the Add an ASCII Camera section for instructions on renaming auxiliaries.
Off
Turn off the camera’s Auxiliaryfeature.
