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, in Sequence mode and in the Guard Tour.

One position can be set as the Home position, which is readily accessible by clicking on the Home button in both the Preset Position Setup window. The position's name will have Home (H) added, e.g. Office Entrance Home (H).

Guard Tour

A guard tour moves between chosen Preset Positions, one-by-one, in a pre-determined order or randomly, and for configurable time periods. Unlike the Sequence Mode, which is a viewing application under Live View Config (see Live View Config, on page 21), the guard tour sequence will keep running after the user has logged off or closed the browser.

Once the preset position has been set, and added to the guard tour, the following settings can be made:

•Set a pause between runs

•Add and remove postions

•View Time in seconds or minutes

•Move Speed - sets the speed of the Pan/Tilt movements to the preset position

•View Order (or Random)
