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) Zoom control to steer the camera view to the required position. When satisfied with the camera's position, enter a descriptive name. Click Add to save the camera position as a preset position.

AXIS Q1755/-E will take the exact position when the preset's name is selected from the Preset position’s 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 on the Home button in both the Preset Position Setup window and the Live View window. The position's name will have (H) added, for example, Entrance (H).

Advanced (Pan/Tilt)

A Pan/Tilt device can be used in order to pan and tilt the camera via controls on the web pages. The Pan/Tilt device controls can be modified from this page.
