PTZ configuration

Once PTZ has been installed for the AXIS 241Q/241S PTZ Configuration now appears in the

menu to the left.

Preset positions

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

From Preset Position Setup, use the Pan, Tilt and Zoom (PTZ) controls to steer the camera to the required position. When satisfied with the camera's position, enter a descriptive name. 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 Preset positions drop-down list. Preset positions can be selected in Live View, from events and in Sequence mode.

One position can be set as the Home position, which is readily accessible by clicking in the box beside Use current position as Home. The position's name will then have (H) added to the end, e.g. Office Entrance (H).

PTZ controls

If the AXIS 241Q/241S has been appropriately configured, the Live View page displays the controls available for the installed Pan Tilt Zoom (PTZ) device. The administrator can enable/disable the controls for specified users.
