Preset Positions

A preset position is a saved view that can be used to quickly steer the camera to a specific position. A preset position consists of the following values:

Pan and tilt positions

Zoom position

Focus position (manual or automatic)

Iris position (manual or automatic)

Access the Preset Positions

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 guard tours. See page 27.

When setting up the Gatekeeper. See page 26.

Add a Preset Position

1.Go to PTZ > Preset Positions.

2.Click in the image or use the controls to steer the camera view to the desired position, see Preset Positions.

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

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

5.Click Add to save the preset position.

To include the preset position name in the overlay text, go to Video, 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 .

Set the Home 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.

Gatekeeper

The Advanced Gatekeeper monitors an area such as an entrance gate. When motion is detected in the monitored area, the Gatekeeper will steer the camera to a selected preset position. Using a zoomed-in preset position can make it possible to, for example, read a license plate or identify a person. When motion is no longer detected, the camera returns to its Home position after a defined time.

To enable the Gatekeeper, go to PTZ > Gatekeeper and follow the online instructions.
