Local assignment

1)

Click the Local Assignment entry to display the available options for local key
assignment. The options are to allow local key assignment to overwrite the
selected key or to disallow local key assignment to overwrite the selected key.
This allows you to limit the keys a panel operator can overwrite when locally
assigning keys by Fast Key Assign (V-Series only) or by Local Key Assignment
(on panels supporting this facility).

Interlock group

You can assign several keys on a panel into an interlock group and restrict the group so
that only one key of the group can be activate at any one time. This function only refers to
talk paths.

For example if a panel had five keys programmed to talk to cameras 1 to 5 then by setting
these into an interlocked group only one camera key can be selected at a time.

There are nine available interlocked groups to which the EHX user can assign any or all
panel keys.

The interlock groups are specific to the panel they are programmed for and do not affect
interlock groups that may be set up on any other panel in the system.

To add a key to an interlocked group:

1)

From Panel Programming, select the desired panel.

2)

Right click on the desired key to display the key options list.

3)

Select the Interlock Group entry to display the interlock group options list.

4)

Select the required interlock group or None if the key is not to be in any interlock
group.

5)

The key may be added to other interlock groups as required.

6)

The key interlock groups are displayed in the key information popup.

Lever key panels (1RU and 2RU) can support up to eight lever key expansion panels (not
pushbutton or rotary expansion panels). To add an expansion panel use the Advanced
Settings options under Cards and Ports. To display the expansion panel mimic open the
right hand drop-down list (normally displaying Main Panel) to show the list of all the
expansion panels configured and select the required expansion panel.
