Gatekeeper

The Active Gatekeeper monitors an area such as an entrance gate. When motion is detected in the monitored area, the Gatekeeper
will, depending on configuration, steer the camera to a selected preset position or start autotracking from 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 or Autotracking as trigger.

About guard tours

A guard tour displays the video stream from different preset positions, one-by-one, in a predetermined order or at random and for
configurable time periods. The enabled guard tour will keep running after the user has logged off or closed the browser.
The guard tour capability in this Axis product also includes tour recording. Tour recording is described in Tour Recording on page 32.
Note
For products that support limited guard tours, there is a fixed minimum view time of 10 seconds.
