OSDI Zones

On-Screen Direction Indicator (OSDI) zones can be included in the overlay text (see Overlay, on page 18) to aid the user to navigate the Axis product. Each OSDI zone is set up with coordinates and a descriptive name.

OSDI zones are set up under PTZ > OSDI Zones. The Axis product uses the coordinates of the center of the view to set the lower left and upper right zone areas. First navigate to where you would like the lowermost left point of the OSDI zone to be located. Click Get to set the coordinates. Proceed to where the upper right point of zone should be located and click Get. Give the zone a descriptive name and click OK.

To include the name of the OSDI zone in the overlay text, go to Video & Audio < Video Stream < Overlay Settings. Check the Include text box and enter the modiﬁer #L in the ﬁeld. For more information about modiﬁers, see File Naming & Date/Time Formats

in the online help .

Limits

Deﬁne the pan, tilt, zoom and focus limits for the Axis product. Movements to the left and right, up and down, can be restricted to narrow the area under surveillance.

Conﬁgure the near focus limit to avoid focusing on objects too close to the camera lens.

Move speed sets the speed of the camera’s pan and tilt movements. The default setting is maximum speed.

When using a joystick (or emulating one with the mouse) the Enable proportional speed setting can be used to reduce the maximum pan/tilt movement speed, i.e. the speed the camera view moves at when the joystick is pushed all the way out in any direction. This is useful then the view is zoomed in on an object.

When Enable Auto-ﬂipis selected, the Axis product will simulate continuous pan movement in the same direction, i.e. the camera will pan the full 360 degrees, even though there is a mechanical stop at ±180 degrees.

When Enable movement prediction is selected, the Axis product will attempt to predict the new position in the pan movement, after compensating for the slight delay while the camera changes direction after an auto-ﬂip. This is useful for tracking moving objects or persons when using the joystick or emulated joystick mode.
