2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The TOA C-RM500 Remote Controller is used to remotely control TOA's Combination cameras over

communication lines (RS-485). It can remotely control video image switching and cameras in combination with

TOA's Multi-Switcher or Smart Switcher.

3. FUNCTIONS

• Display Selection

The following screen formats can be selected for display of camera images connected to the Multi-Switcher:

full screen, 4-segment, sequential 4-segment, 9-segment, 10-segment or 16-segment split-screen and

sequential full-screen.

• Manual Operation

Controls the Combination camera's zoom, focus, pan and tilt functions.

• Camera Position Selection

Controls the Combination camera's orientation, and displays the camera image on the monitor in the

selected orientation.

• Function Key Programming

Camera numbers or camera number/position combinations can be programmed into the function keys (A –

H). Pressing the function key displays the camera image on the full screen. If position numbers have been

set, images of the selected camera orientation can be displayed.

• Abbreviated Number Display

Permits camera numbers or camera number/position combinations to be programmed for numbers 1 – 512.

Entering the programmed number followed by the SET key displays the corresponding camera number on

the full screen, and the image of selected camera orientation if the position number has been set.

• Alarm Function

Controls the display in synchronization with alarm signals received from a camera. When an alarm signal is

detected, the image of the corresponding camera takes display precedence. The C-RM500 Controller also

features an Alarm Hold function that temporarily disables channel (camera number) switching in response to

an alarm signal. This prevents the display from being forcibly switched to an alerted camera during close

inspection (when the Multi-Switcher is connected).

Equipment Which Can Be Controlled with the C-RM500

Shown below are equipment that can be controlled with the C-RM500.

Camera: C-CC501, C-CC504, C-CC551, and C-CC554

Up to 31 cameras can be connected to the unit's Camera control terminal and controlled. The use

of the C-IF500 Interface Unit will increase the number to up to 64 cameras (when the C-SS8

switcher is in use). Note that the cameras cannot be controlled if their number is greater than the

number of inputs of a connected switcher.

Switcher: C-MS90D, C-MS90S, C-MS160D, C-MS160S, and C-SS8

Only one switcher can be connected for remote camera control. However, as to the C-SS8, 1

master-designated unit and up to 7 slave-designated units can be connected to remotely control

the cameras.

About the Camera Control Terminal

The Camera control terminal is used to connect the C-CC501, C-CC504, C-CC551, or C-CC554 Combination

Camera or the C-IF500 Interface Unit. Up to 31 pieces of equipment can be connected to the terminal.

About the Descriptions in This Manual

• The explanations in this manual assume that the C-RM500 Remote Controller is connected to a

C-MS160D/S or C-MS90D/S Multi-Switcher and the C-SS8 Smart Switcher.

• Camera number: Refers to the camera input terminal number connected to the switcher.

• Position number: Combination camera orientation can be programmed for No. 1 – 255.
