Ensuring Smooth AutoTrack Operation

Factors such as the viewing angle and unwanted motion (from trees, for example) may interfere with AutoTrack operation. Use the following recommendations to ensure smooth AutoTrack operation:

–Mount/Mounting Surface Stability

–Mount the camera in the most stable position. Avoid locations affected by vibrations, such as those caused by a roof-top air conditioner. These vibrations may cause complications when the camera zooms-in on a target.

–Use the pendant arm mount, if possible. This mount option provides the most stability for the camera.

–Use guy wires to protect against strong winds if using the parapet mount.

–Field of View

–Select a location and viewing angle that allows the flow of people to move across the camera’s field of view.

–Avoid motion that moves directly towards the camera.

–Avoid locations that attract large numbers of people, such as retail stores or intersections.

–Unwanted Motion

–Use the Virtual Masking feature (see Section 7.3 Virtual Masking (500i Series Only), page 52) to mask unwanted motion from trees or cars.

Bosch recommends that you draw the virtual mask 10% larger than the object to be masked.

–Avoid neon lights, flashing lights, night time lights, and reflected light (from a window or mirror, for example). The flickering of these lights can affect the AutoTrack operation. Use a Virtual Mask to hide these type of lights if they cannot be avoided.

–Check the virtual mask periodically to ensure that it still covers the entire object to be masked. Adjust the mask if necessary.
