Preset Positions

A preset position is a pre-defined camera
view that can be used to quickly steer the
camera to a specific location.
From Preset Position Setup, use the Pan,
Tilt and Zoom (PTZ) controls to steer the
camera view to the required position.
When satisfied with the camera's position,
enter a descriptive name and click Add.
The camera position, iris and focus
settings are then saved as a preset
position.
This position can be assumed at any time,
by selecting the preset's name from the
Available positions drop-down list. Preset
positions can be selected in Live View
page, from Event Types and in the Guard
Tour.
One position can be set as the Home position, which is readily accessible by clicking the Home button in both the Preset
Positions window and the Live View window. The name will have (H) added, for example, Entrance (H).
The network camera can also be configured to return to the Home position when the camera has been inactive for a specified
length of time. Enter the length of time in the field Return to home when inactive and click Save. Setting the time to zero
prevents the camera from automatically returning to the Home position.
Text Overlay Settings,
The preset position name can be included in the overlay image text, see on page 14.

Auto Tracking

The network camera can detect movement in the camera's field of view, for example a moving vehicle or person. If auto
tracking is enabled, the camera will automatically pan and tilt to follow the moving object or, in case there is lots of
simultaneous movement, the area with the most movement. Auto tracking continues until the moving object stops or
disappears from the monitored area. Movement in areas blocked by privacy masks and in exclude areas does not trigger auto
tracking.
It is strongly recommended to enable the PTZ Control Queue if Auto Tracking and Guard Tour are simultaneously enabled. In
the PTZ Control Queue, the Guard Tour has lower priority than Auto Tracking so the camera will not abandon Auto Tracking to
start a Guard Tour.
Configuration
Start and Stop Auto Tracking - To enable auto tracking, click Start. To disable auto tracking, click Stop.
Movement trigger sensitivity - Set to Low, Medium or High. Medium is usually a good choice, but in some situations a low
or high sensitivity might be more suitable, depending on the size of the moving objects and the image contrast.
Exclude Areas
Exclude areas are areas where movement is to be ignored. Note that movement in an area blocked by a privacy mask is always
ignored.
To create an exclude area, click Add area. The area (the blue rectangle) can be resized and moved to the desired position. Enter
a descriptive name and click Save. To enable or disable an area, click the name of the area and click Enable/Disable.
