PTZ PATTERNS

A pattern is a user-defined, viewable camera path with a definite beginning and end. Patterns are made up of a sequence of standard pan, tilt and lens commands. Patterns are stored in the internal memory of the PTZ device, such as a Spectra® dome, that is connected to the DX8100. The Spectra III supports one pattern and the Spectra III SE supports up to four unique PTZ patterns. Depending on the type and configuration of the PTZ device, the DX8100 can address up to four unique PTZ patterns. Once defined, a pattern can be activated with a series of on-screen commands. A pattern will run continuously until it is deactivated.

Only PTZ-enabled cameras that support pattern programming through D, P, Coaxitron, or supported third-party protocols can use this feature.

The PTZ controls are hidden in the extended view mode. In this case, select the standard view mode to display the PTZ controls.

To switch between the standard and extended view mode:

•From the DX8100 menu bar, choose View > Extended View.
