Patrol Sequence

Patrol Sequence

Configure the order in which the IP camera executes preset operations.

The preset list contains up to 9 positions that you configure as described in the “Preset Positions Window” section on page 3-37. The Sequence list specifies the order in which the IP camera goes to each preset position when you execute a sequence. (To execute a sequence, use the Patrol Sequence button as described in the “Home Window Controls” section on page 4-3.)

Each preset position in a sequence is called a step. A sequence can include up to 20 steps, so it can include the same preset position more than once. When the sequence executes, the IP camera goes to the first position in the Sequence list, then moves through each position in the list in order. It remains in each position for 30 seconds. It stops at the last position in the list.

To create the preset sequence, click the first desired preset position in the Preset list and click Add >>. The preset position appears in the Sequence list. Repeat this procedure as needed to create the sequence.

To remove a preset position from the Sequence list, choose the desired position and click Remove.

Preset Positions Window

If you click the Set Preset Position button in the PTZ (RS-485) window, as described in the Set Preset Position row in Table 3-20, the Preset window appears. This window displays the current video from the IP camera and provides options for configuring up to nine preset positions for the IP camera.

To use the options that are in this window, the IP camera must be installed with a motorized zoom/focus lens in a pan/tilt mount that supports the Pelco D protocol.

If you are prompted to install ActiveX controls when trying to access this window, follow the on-screen prompts to do so. ActiveX controls are required to see the video and the options.

If you change any options in the Preset window, you must click Save to save the changes. To exit this window, click Back.

CIVS-IPC-2500, 2500 Series specifications

The Cisco Systems 2500 Series routers are a series of versatile, feature-rich networking devices designed to address the needs of various enterprises and small to medium-sized businesses. Released in the early 1990s, the 2500 Series quickly became a backbone solution for organizations seeking reliable and efficient networking capabilities.

One of the defining characteristics of the Cisco 2500 Series is its modular architecture, which allows businesses to customize their routers based on specific networking needs. This modularity accommodates various interface cards, enabling the integration of different protocols and connection types, including serial, Ethernet, and WAN interfaces. As a result, organizations can tailor their routers to support diverse applications while ensuring optimal performance.

The Cisco 2500 Series supports several advanced routing protocols, including RIP, OSPF, EIGRP, and BGP. This support provides flexibility for network design and ensures that users can implement scalable solutions as their business grows. Moreover, the routers come equipped with robust security features, including access control lists (ACLs) and support for VPNs, making them suitable for organizations that require a secure network environment.

A notable feature of the Cisco 2500 Series is its support for Quality of Service (QoS). This functionality allows organizations to prioritize certain types of traffic, ensuring that critical applications, such as VoIP or video conferencing, receive the necessary bandwidth and minimal latency. This is particularly beneficial for businesses that rely on real-time communications and need to maintain high levels of service quality.

Additionally, the implementation of Cisco’s internetworking technologies, such as IP and frame relay, enhances the overall performance and versatility of the 2500 Series routers. These technologies enable efficient data transmission and improve network reliability, which is essential for organizations with complex networking requirements.

In summary, the Cisco Systems 2500 Series routers are known for their modular design, support for multiple routing protocols, robust security features, and advanced QoS capabilities. Their ability to adapt to different networking environments makes them an ideal choice for businesses looking to enhance their connectivity and streamline their operations. Even decades after their introduction, the 2500 Series remains a relevant player in the networking market, demonstrating Cisco's commitment to providing effective solutions for diverse industries.
