PRESETS

Figure 32. Device Control Dialog Box - Presets Tab
A preset is a predefined camera position that is stored in the camera. Each camera can have a limited number of presets defined for it. The
maximum number of presets depends on the camera model.
The Presets tab of the Device Control dialog box lists the presets for the camera. Presets can appear in the list as Unassigned_i, where i is the
preset’s number. “Unassigned” indicates that the preset has not been assigned a name and script tag in VMX300(-E).
An unassigned preset might or might not have a stored camera position associated with it. To determine whether an unassigned preset has a
camera position stored for it, select the preset and click Goto. If the camera moves, there is a stored camera position.
Assigning a preset does the following:
•It makes the preset name appear in the presets drop-down list in the camera’s gadget.
•It gives the preset a script tag so scripts defined by the system administrator can refer to the preset.
