(3) Home Position Setting (HOME POSITION)
A currently configured preset position can be designated as the home position.
Pressing the HOME button of the system controller will cause the camera to move to the currently specified home position. Use the following procedure to make a preset position the home position.
1.Move the cursor to HOME POSITION, and then tilt the joystick left or right to select the position number of the preset position you want to make the home position.
This causes the preset position whose position number you select to become the home position. If you do not want to use the home position function, select OFF for the HOME POSITION setting.
(4) Self Return Setting (SELF RETURN)
The self return setting can be used to specify automatic return to a particular mode if a certain amount of time elapses without any operation being performed.
1.Move the cursor to SELF RETURN, and then tilt the joystick left or right to select a self return trigger setting. Tilting the joystick cycles through the self return display in the sequence shown below. (unit: sec, min)
OFF ↔ 1S ↔ 2S ↔ 3S ↔ ....... ↔ 10S ↔ 20S ↔ 30S ↔ 40S
↔ | ↔ |
60MIN | 50S |
↔ | ↔ |
30MIN ↔ 20MIN ↔ | 10MIN ↔ 5MIN ↔ 3MIN ↔ 2MIN ↔ 1MIN |
2.If you selected any setting other than OFF in step 1, press the CAM (SET) button and then tilt the joystick left or right to select a self return mode.
OFF ↔ AUTO ↔ HOME ↔ APAN ↔ SEQ ↔ SORT
TRK ↔ PTR4 ↔ PTR3 ↔ PTR2 ↔ PTR1
OFF : In the auto mode, exits the auto mode when the trigger time elapses.
AUTO (AUTO MODE setting not OFF) : Returns to the auto mode when the trigger time elapses.
AUTO (AUTO MODE setting OFF) : Returns to the
| home position when the trigger time |
| elapses. |
HOME | : Returns to the home position when the |
| trigger time elapses. |
APAN | : Activates auto pan when the trigger |
| time elapses. |
SEQ | : Activates the sequence function when |
| the trigger time elapses. |
SORT | : Activates the sort function when the |
| trigger time elapses. |
PTR 1 to 4: Activates the patrol function when the
| trigger time elapses. |
TRK | : After the trigger time elapses, the |
| camera returns to the home position and |
| then automatic tracking starts. Following |
| that, after a set time, the camera returns |
| to the home position and starts to |
| continue automatic tracking. |
Notes:
•The HOME setting should be selected when you want to normally leave the camera in the home position and occasionally perform pan and tilt, or when you want to activate SEQ.
•
(5)Auto Mode Setting (AUTO MODE)
Use the auto mode setting to specify the camera movement mode (OFF, SEQ, SORT, AUTO PAN, PATROL 1~4, AUTO TRACK).
After selecting AUTO PAN, you can use the AUTO PAN setting menu to configure detailed settings.
1.Move the cursor to AUTO MODE, and then tilt the joystick left or right to select a camera movement
mode setting.
OFF : Manual movement only
SEQ : Sequentially switches between preset positions in position number sequence. (sequential movement)
SORT : Sequentially switches between preset positions counterclockwise, starting from the camera home position. (sort movement)
AUTO PAN:Camera pans automatically within the range specified by PAN. Selecting AUTO PAN and pressing the CAM (SET) button will display the AUTO PAN setting menu, which can be used for configuring detailed settings. (page 34)
PATROL 1 to 4:Operates the camera in accordance with patrol function settings.
AUTO TRACK:Auto tracking is done for moving objects under the following conditions. The moving object must be larger than one of the screen blocks (1/48 of screen area), it must have 5 % comparative contrast with the background image.
Notes:
•Automatic tracking covers a range from horizontal to directly below the camera. The digital flip function (page 37) does not operate. Also, the pan range can be limited by using the PAN LIMIT setting (page 34).
•The automatic tracking function incorporated in this system easily tracks moving objects on screen. Moving subjects are not automatically tracked in the following situations.
•When multiple moving subjects are on screen
•When the subjects are moving very fast
•When the subject has little contrast
•When moving objects are either large or small
•When the image is dark
•When the image flickers
Tilting the joystick cycles through settings in the sequence shown below.
OFF ↔ SEQ ↔ SORT ↔ AUTO PAN ↔ PATROL1 ↔ PATROL2 AUTO TRACK ↔ PATROL4 ↔ PATROL3
