PRESET TOURS

A preset tour allows a camera to move through a configured sequence of PTZ presets. The DX4104 tour advances sequentially through presets 1 to 16. The system pauses for approximately four seconds between the end of the current preset and the start of the next preset. If the presets are configured sequentially (1, 2, 3, 4, and so forth), the time period between presets is brief. If one or more the presets are not configured sequentially, the time period between presets can be longer because the system still accounts for the four-second interval for the non-configured preset memory location. For example, if presets 1 and 2 are configured and presets 3 to 16 are not configured, the system pauses approximately 54 seconds before starting preset 1.

A preset tour will operate continuously until another PTZ control action is performed. One or more presets must be configured to activate a preset tour.

To activate a preset tour:

1.In the Client window, click the PTZ-enabled pane.

2.On the PTZ control, click Preset . The preset tour starts.

To stop a preset tour:

1.In the Client window, click the PTZ-enabled pane.

2.On the PTZ control, click a button to initiate an action. For example, if you click ZOOM PLUS (+), the pattern stops.
