Preset Positions

A preset position is a predefined view that can be used to quickly steer the camera to a specific location. Preset positions can be accessed in several ways:

•By selecting the preset from the Preset positions drop-down list in the Live View Page.

•When setting up action rules. See page 35.

•When setting up Guard Tour. See page 28.

•When setting up the Gatekeeper. See page 28

To add a preset position:

1.Go to PTZ > Preset Positions.

2.Use the pan, tilt and zoom controls to steer the camera view to the desired position.

3.Enter a descriptive name in the Current position field.

4.If required, select Use current position as Home.

5.Click Add. The camera’s position and focus settings are saved as a preset position.

The Home position is readily accessible by clicking the Home button on the Live View page and in the Preset Positions setup window.

To set a customized home position, select Use current position as Home when adding a preset position. The user-defined home position will have (H) added, for example, Entrance (H). The default Home position, called “Home”, will still be available.

The product can be configured to return to the Home position when the PTZ functionality has been inactive for a specified length of time. Enter the length of time in the Return to home when inactive field and click Save. Set the time to zero to prevent the product from automatically returning to the Home position.

To include the preset position name in the overlay text, go to Video & Audio, select Include overlay text and enter the modifier #P in

the field. For more information about modifiers, see File Naming & Date/Time Formats in the online help .

Focus Window

The focus window makes it possible to select an area of the camera's image that focus should be applied on. This can be useful if there is a part of the image where focus is more critical, or if a part of the image should be ignored by the autofocus.

If the focus window is set from the Live View page, any change in the camera position will return the autofocus to the entire window.

If the focus window is set from the Preset Positions page, it will be included in the settings for that preset. The focus window can be redefined for the preset, but it cannot be deleted unless the preset is deleted.

P5414E specifications

The Axis Communications P5414E is a high-performance pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) network camera designed for versatile surveillance applications. Ideal for outdoor environments, this camera combines advanced imaging technology with sophisticated features, catering to the needs of security professionals looking for reliable performance.

One of the standout features of the P5414E is its 720p resolution capability, providing clear and sharp images for effective monitoring. The camera is equipped with a powerful 18x optical zoom, enabling users to zoom in on specific areas without losing image quality. This is particularly useful in scenarios where detailed surveillance is crucial, such as monitoring large open spaces or capturing high-definition images of distant subjects.

The P5414E employs Axis’ streaming technology, allowing for smooth and efficient video transmission over the network. It supports multiple H.264 and Motion JPEG streams, enabling users to customize the stream quality depending on their networking conditions and storage needs. This flexibility is essential for optimizing bandwidth usage while maintaining image fidelity.

For nighttime surveillance, the P5414E incorporates advanced infrared (IR) technology, allowing it to capture high-quality images even in low-light conditions. With a built-in IR illuminator, the camera can provide visibility in complete darkness, ensuring continuous monitoring around the clock.

The camera's rugged design is specifically built to withstand harsh weather conditions. It includes an IP66-rated housing, making it resistant to dust and water ingress, while also operating effectively in a temperature range of -40°C to 50°C (-40°F to 122°F). This durability makes the P5414E suitable for a variety of challenging environments.

In addition to its robust features, the P5414E includes Axis’ advanced analytic functionalities, such as digital auto tracking and motion detection. These features enhance the camera's capability to alert users of suspicious activities in real time, significantly improving the effectiveness of security operations.

Moreover, the camera is equipped with Power over Ethernet (PoE), simplifying installation and reducing the need for multiple cables. This integration of power and data transmission through a single cable not only streamlines setup but also ensures a more efficient and reliable operation.

The Axis Communications P5414E represents the pinnacle of surveillance technology, combining high-resolution video, robust features, and practical design to meet the demands of modern security environments. Its cutting-edge technologies provide users with the tools needed for comprehensive monitoring and effective response to security threats.
