AXIS Q1765-LE Network Camera
PTZ (Pan Tilt Zoom)

Gatekeeper

The Gatekeeper monitors an area such as an entrance gate. When motion is detected in the monitored area, the Gatekeeper will steer
the camera to a selected preset position. Using a zoomed-in preset position can make it possible to, for example, read a license plate
or identify a person. When motion is no longer detected, the camera returns to its Home position after a defined time.
To enable the Gatekeeper, go to PTZ > Gatekeeper and follow the online instructions.
It is also possible to, for example, record video or save images (take a snapshot) while the Gatekeeper is active. Go to Events
and set up an action rule with PTZ Preset Reached as trigger.

Advanced

Controls
Advanced PTZ settings can be configured under PTZ > Advanced > Controls.
The Panel Shortcut Command Buttons list shows the user-defined buttons that can be accessed from the Live View page's Ctrl
panel. These buttons can be used to provide direct access to commands issued using the VAPIX® application programming interface.
Click Add to add a new shortcut command button.
The following PTZ controls are enabled by default:
• Pan control
• Tilt control
• Zoom control
• Focus control
To disable specific controls, deselect the options under Enable/Disable controls.
Note
Disabling PTZ controls will not affect preset positions. For example, if the tilt control is disabled, the product can still move to
preset positions that require a tilt movement.

Control Queue

Note
• The administrator can enable and disable PTZ controls for selected users.
• To identify different users in the viewer group, cookies must be enabled on the client.
• The Control queue polltime is measured in seconds. For more information see the online help
The administrator can set up a queue for PTZ controllers from PTZ > Control Queue. Once set up, the PTZ Control Queue buttons
appear in the Live View page offering one viewer exclusive control for a limited period of time. Other users will be placed in queue.
A user who belongs to a group (see Users on page 45) with a higher PTZ priority can go before other users in the queue and take
control of the product. The order of priority is as follows:
1. Administrator — An administrator takes over PTZ control regardless of who is first in queue. The administrator will be
removed from the queue 60 seconds after the last PTZ control command.
2. Event — The Axis product can be configured to go to a preset position when triggered by an alarm (see Events on page 37).
The event will immediately be placed first in the queue except when an administrator is in control.
3. Operator — Same as administrator but with lower priority
