This section explains how to control the Network Camera’s Pan/Tilt/Zoom operation.
The camera comes with built-in PTZ mechanisms.
Preset positions and patrol settings
In the PTZ settings page, you can select preset positions for the camera to patrol. A total of 256 preset
positions can be congured.
Please follow the steps below to congure preset positions and arrange them in a pan/tilt/zoom tour:
1. Adjust the shooting area to the desired position using the keypad on the upper right side of the
window. The default Home position refers to the center position defaulted in the factory. You might as
well select another area of interest as the “Home“ position. You should also select the speeds for the
actions that occur during the patrol; i.e., pan, tilt, zoom, focus, and the auto pan/patrol.
2. Enter a name for a new preset position, which can contain up to forty characters. Click Add to enable
the settings. The preset positions will be listed on the User preset locations. (To add positions you
wish, please repeat steps 1~2.)
3. Select the preset positions and click on the Save button at the bottom of the screen.
4. Click on the move button (>>)
to move positions to the Patrol locations window.
5. You may select some or all of the imported positions as the stop points during the tour.
6. Enter a preferred dwell time before the camera lens moves to the next position.
7. Select a speed level for the auto patrol tour.
8. Click on the Save button to preserve your conguration.
To remove a preset position from the list, select it and click Remove.
You can re-arrange the patrol order of the positions on the list using the
buttons.
