AUTO FLIP
When the camera tilts down and just beyond vertical, the dome rotates 180 degrees. When the dome rotates (flips), the camera starts moving upward while you continue holding the joystick in the down position.

SCAN SPEED
Scan speed is adjustable from 1 to 40 degrees per second through the programming menu.
