Chapter 1 Overview

1.1 Functions

Note: The functions may vary depending on the models of PTZ.
Limit Stops
The dome can be programmed to move within the limit stops (left/right, up/down).
Scan Modes
The dome provides 5 scan modes: auto scan, tilt scan, frame scan, random scan and panorama
scan.
Presets
A preset is a predefined image position. When the preset is called, the dome will automatically
move to the defined position. The presets can be added, modified, deleted and called.
Label Display
The on-screen label of the preset title, azimuth/elevation, zoom, time and dome name can be
displayed on the monitor. The displays of time and PTZ name can be programmed.
Auto Flip
In manual tracking mode, when a target object goes directly beneath the dome, the video will
automatically flips 180 degrees in horizontal direction to maintain continuity of tracking. This
function can also be realized by auto mirror image depending on different camera models.
3D Positioning
In the client software, use the left key of mouse to click on the desired position in the video image
and drag a rectangle area in the lower right direction, then the dome system will move the position
to the center and allow the rectangle area to zoom in. Use the left key of mouse to drag a rectangle
area in the upper left direction to move the position to the center and allow the rectangle area to
zoom out.
Proportional Pan/Tilt
Proportional pan/tilt automatically reduces or increases the pan and tilt speeds according to the
amount of zoom. At telephoto zoom settings, the pan and tilt speeds will be slower than at wide
zoom settings. This keeps the image from moving too fast on the live view image when there is a
large amount of zoom.
Auto Focus
The auto focus enables the camera to focus automatically to maintain clear video images.
Day/Night Auto Switch
The PTZs deliver color images during the day. And as light diminishes at night, the PTZs switch to
night mode and deliver black and white images with high quality.
Slow Shutter
In slow shutter mode, the shutter speed will automatically slowdown in low illumination conditions
to maintain clear video images by extending the exposure time. The feature can be enabled or
disabled.
