Glossary 152 Terms active CPU – The central processing unit of a network security system operating in the “active” mode, provi ding centralized control of the entire system. It may be backed up by a redundant CPU operating in standby mode, which is capable of taking over as the active CPU at any instant - upon instruction from the management switch. admin console – A PC-based graphical user interface (GUI) that facilitates the interaction between an NSS (network security system) and a system administrator. alarm – A programmed association between an event and an action (normally an automated sequence). For example: motion is detected on a video camera, and this event triggers a pre-programmed action, such as a camera preset that is executed automatically by the system. A user can also control an alarm. alarm identification number – A decimal number that uniquely identifies an alarm within the system. alarm monitor – An external device that receives alarm status information from the Main CPU, which acts as an interface with an external alarm system - able to respond to NSS event sources, such as: video loss detection, motion detection, or digital input state change detection. area – An administrator’s selective grouping of several locally numbered monitors and one or more contro llers. A control/communications center for security will contain one or more areas. backup CPU – Same as redundant CPU. camera identification number – Unique record ID assigned by MPU955A Admin Console as a camera is adde d, in order to identify one camera to the system. camera preset (CPreset) – A predetermined camera position. camera spot – A camera and its associated pr eset position. Also referred to as: spot. camera surveillance group (CSG) – Several cameras committed to an identifiable physical space likely to be viewed from one or more monitors as a preset or tour. Th is grouping can be a basis for logical numbering. For example, a CSG could be committed to a concourse, gift shop, cash register, or loading dock. camera-to-monitor permissions – Permit a camera to be viewed on certain monitors, while denying access to others. camera number – A unique number permanently assigned to the specific location and port of an individual, installed camera. It is always linked to a “logical” camera number ( See logical camera number).

Glossary 153 central processing unit (CPU) – The part of a network security system (NSS) that controls the functioning of the entire system, which it also enables. Operates on either active or standby status. If active, it is the Main CPU; if in standby, it is the redundant (or backup) CPU. compensation – Hardware capability to boosting signal strength in a response to the length of the cable length installed: short, medium, or long. controller – A user tool for selecting and aiming a surveillance camera. Can be either a GUI screen image, or a physical device with a set of alphanumeric keys and a joystick. control port (CPort) – Input port on the video input board. controller-to-alarm permissions – Permit a controller to access certain alarms, while denying access to others. controller-to-camera control permissions – Permit a controller to control a certain camera, while denying access to others. controller-to-camera view permissions – Permit a controller to view the output of a certain camera, while denying access to others. controller-to-group sequence permissions – Permit a controller to conduct a certain group tour, while denying access to others. controller-to-monitor permissions – Permit a controller to access a certain monitor, while denying access to others. CPU management switch – Also called “management switch,” or “Mgmt Sw.” See management switch. Ethernet address (EA) – A unique 48-bit address hardwired into the electronics of the Ethernet board of the network device. The address is written in hexadecimal form. Example: 3C.80.7F.13.83.2A (Also known as MAC address.) This is not the same as an Internet Protocol (IP) address. Ethernet controller – A system controller that communicates via an Ethernet physical-layer interface. event generator – A device that indicates the occurrence of several external events to the Main CPU, via a single physical interface. The Main CPU responds to event indications as instructions to execute pre- programmed actions, such as triggering an alarm, closing outputs, or running tours. External alarm and card-access systems are examples of event generators. group preset – A collection of monitor-camera pairings, whereby in a single shot, a group of monitors will display video output from cameras at specific preset positions. group sequence – An automated sequence of group preset steps. GUI controller – A system that provides a user with a PC-based graphical user interface (GUI) controller emulating specific keyboard controllers.

Glossary 154 ID number – Component ID and tour ID numbers are used primarily in the permission tabs to identify one component or sequence from another in row and column style. Since logical and local numbers are not necessarily unique or consecutive, and the permission grids must be displayed as consecutive, unique numbers, MPU955A Admin Console automatically generates this number in consecutive order. Upon adding components or tours, the system will automatically assign the next available number. Internet Protocol (IP) address – A unique 32-bit identifier for a specific computer or other device (such as a printer) on a TCP/IP network. IP addresses are in dotted decimal form, with each of the four address fields assigned a value from 0 to 255. Example: 128.127.050.224 keyboard – When not referring to the keyboard part of a PC, a keyboard in the context of an NSS could be another name for a controller. See system controller. keyboard controller – Usually a controller. See controller. local monitor number – One of a set of numbers assigned to the monitors within an area, which map onto the system’s internal monitor numbering plan. An operator selects a monitor by local number. location – A name assigned to an area by an NSS administrator to help users locate components in the system. logical camera number – A decimal number, within the range 1 to 99999, assigned by an NSS administrator to enable users to select one or more camera views. For example, while logical camera numbers 885001, 885002, 885003, 885004, 885005, etc. could be assigned the main public space at 885 Park Avenue, 34001, 34002, 34003, 34004, etc. could be for another area, such as airline boarding gate 34. logical number – A number assigned to a component from the point of view of the system. See also ID number. logical output number – A decimal number within the range 1 to 99999, which uniquely identifies an alarm output to the system. A user will use this number when selecting an output. The system administrator assigns logical output numbers. main CPU – The central processing unit of an NSS (Network Security System) operating in the “active” mode, providing centralized control of the entire system. It may be backed up by a redundant CPU operating in standby mode, and capable of taking over at any instant upon instruction from the management switch. management switch – A device that monitors the system’s main processing node (main CPU). Upon detecting a failure, the management switch directs the redundant CPU to take control of the system. MCPU – See main CPU.

Glossary 155 monitor – A CRT (cathode ray tube) dedicated to viewing images generated by one or more of the components of a surveillance system. network security system (NSS) – Large-scale matrix system that performs functions such as camera control, switching, automatic alarm processing, and provision of an on-screen display. operator – A person (operator) who accesses the system, selects resources, and controls selected system resources. operator identification number – A decimal number that uniquely identifies an operator to the system; a user will use this number when logging onto the system. operator password – A unique decimal number that must be presented along with an operator’s ID number each time he or she logs onto the system. redundant CPU – A central processing unit in the “standby” mode, always ready to take control of the entire system upon command from the CPU management switch. After taking control of the system, the redundant CPU becomes the active CPU. RS-485 controller – A system controller that communicates via an RS-485 physical layer interface. RS-485 interface – A specialized interface common in the world of data acquisition. Capable of supporting 32 drivers and 32 receivers engaging in bi-directional, half duplex, multi-drop communications over a single twisted pair. The differential voltage transmission system enables a maximum cable length of 4,000 feet. spot – Usually means the same as “camera spot.” system administrator – A person who manages a network system by configuring system hardware, programming system features, monitoring system status, controlling overall system operation, and reviewing system logs. system controller (controller) - A device that controls a WJ-SX850 system. Typically, a system controller is an input/output device operating by itself, or by a user. Any device that conforms to the system controller interface specifications can be a system controller. system resources – Objects such as monitors, cameras, alarms, alarm outputs, etc. Most system resources are available for direct control by a user. Also, configured memory available for performing various tasks within a PC operating system. tour sequence – An automated sequence of steps, whereby, in a single shot, a single monitor displays video output from a series of cameras that have gone to specific preset positions.
