Patrols (Tours) – How to set them up and use them
A patrol (tour) is simply a collection of at least three preset camera locations that are run in
sequence with the dome stopping at each location for a brief period of time and then moving on to
the next preset.
For example, you could use a patrol so that an outside dome camera points at a gate, then at a side
doorway, then zooms out to get an overall shot of a car park and finally zooming in on a delivery
bay, before repeating the whole cycle again. Patrols can be useful for both outside and internal
PTZ's. For a shop they could be used to cover key areas like clothes rails, tills and changing rooms
in a sequence. To set up a patrol you need to set up the individual stop points where the camera will
pause. These are called presets.
