EQUIP Series ACUIX™ IP PTZ Dome Installation and Configuration Guide
A preset tour is a memorized series of presets that can be recalled manually by
the operator, recalled automatically by a programmed alarm, or set as a default
function when the dome has been idle for a specified length of time.
During a preset tour, the dome moves from preset to preset at a specified
velocity (from 1 to 480 degrees per second), remaining at each preset for a
specified dwell time (from 1 to 99 seconds).
Preset tours are useful for looking at specific locations like doors and windows
or to scan each location for a few seconds. You can run a preset tour once or
continuously. If an operator runs a tour continuously, the dome goes from the
last preset to the first preset. The preset tour repeats continuously until you
manually control the dome (pan, tilt, zoom, focus, or iris) or send a preset, preset
tour, mimic tour, or find home command.
CAUTION
Avoid continuous preset tour operation for
extended periods of time (more than eight hours) as this will
increase lens wear and maintenance expenses.
Note If you are using a True Day/Night (TDN) camera, the focus changes
when the IR cut filter is removed. Therefore, a preset programmed in
day mode may be out of focus in NightShot mode. To avoid this
issue, program separate day presets and night presets.
To program a preset tour:
1. Click the PTZ Dome Setup tab.
2. In the PTZ Settings panel, under Preset Tour Details, click Program.
3. Type the number of the preset tour you want to program and then press
ENTER.
4. Type a title for the preset tour and then press ENTER.
5. In the PRESET column, enter the preset number, and then press ENTER.
6. In the VELOCITY column, type a value (in degrees) from 1 through 480
(default = 480 degrees per second), and then press ENTER.
7. In the DWELL column, type a value (in seconds) from 1 through 99, and
then press ENTER.
