AXIS M32 Series - Pan Tilt Zoom (PTZ)

Pan Tilt Zoom (PTZ)

In the Pan Tilt Zoom Settings page you can enable digital PTZ and create the PTZ preset positions.

Check the Enable digital PTZ box and click Save to enable digital pan/tilt/zoom and PTZ controls in Live View.

Max zoom - Set the maximum possible zoom rate in Live View. Note that by increasing the maximum zoom rate you will be decreasing the maximum possible resolution in the Live View Image.

Preset Positions

A preset position is a pre-defined camera view that can be used to quickly steer the camera to a specific location.

From Preset Position Setup, use the Pan, Tilt and Zoom (PTZ) controls to steer the camera view to the required position.

When satisfied with the camera's position, enter a descriptive name and click Add. The camera position, iris and focus settings are then saved as a preset position.

The position can be assumed at any time by selecting the preset's name from the PTZ Preset drop-down list in the Live View page. Preset positions can be

selected from the Live View page, Event Types, and Guard Tour.

One position can be set as the Home position, which is readily accessible by clicking the Home button in both the Preset Positions page and the Live View page. The position's name will have (H) added, for example, Entrance (H).

The network camera can also be configured to return to the Home position when the camera has been inactive for a specified length of time. Enter the length of time in the field Return to home after and click Save. Setting the time to zero prevents the camera from automatically returning to the Home position.

Guard Tour

A guard tour displays the video stream from different preset positions, one-by-one, in a pre-determined order or randomly, and for configurable time periods. The guard tour will keep running after the user has logged off or closed the browser.
