Immediate Action Menu Buttons

Some features are directly accessible from the main menu. Selecting one of the menu buttons
below invokes the action immediately and closes the OSD menu.
Tracker: When the Tracker is enabled pressing the Menu button will open the Tracker
contextual menu. You can set the Tracking box to show or not show when the Tracker is engaged
(actively tracking a target).
Park camera: the camera drives to its predefined Park position remaining fully active (no
Stand-by) except that the video is turned off. To exit Park and return to normal operation,
command a move with the joystick or press the Home button. The camera will return to Home
position. The Park position can be reconfigured by an admin user through the web browser
interface. See the M500 Installation Guide.
InstAlert/Exit InstAlert mode: When the camera is placed in InstAlert mode, a special
search palette is invoked so that a set percentage of the hottest temperatures in the image are
highlighted in Red-Orange shades, while colder temperatures are all in shades of gray. Especially
useful for locating people or running boats in the dark. After invoking the mode, pressing the Menu
button will show the InstAlert settings menu. The Highlight setting controls the percentage of the
hottest temperatures to display in Red-Orange.
IceAlert/Exit IceAlert mode: Conversely to InstAlert mode, when the camera is placed in
IceAlert mode, a special search palette is invoked so that a set percentage of the coldest
temperatures in the image are highlighted in Blue-Green shades, while warmer temperatures are
all in shades of gray. Especially useful for locating ice in the dark. After invoking the mode,
pressing the Menu button will show the IceAlert settings menu. The Highlight setting controls the
percentage of the coldest temperatures to display in Blue-Green.
