AXIS M5075-G PTZ Camera
The web interface
• Create thumbnails
• Refresh thumbnails: Replace the thumbnails for your preset positions with new and updated thumbnails.
• Delete all preset positions: Remove all your preset positions. This will also create a new home position automatically.
Limits
To narrow down the area under surveillance, you can limit the PTZ movements.
Save as Pan 0: Click to set the current position as zero-point for pan coordinates.
Pan-tilt limits: The camera uses the coordinates of the center of the image when you set pan-tilt limits.
•
Left pan limit: Click to limit the camera's pan movements to the left. Click again to remove the limit.
•
Right pan limit: Click to limit the camera's pan movements to the right. Click again to remove the limit.
•
Top tilt limit: Click to limit the camera's tilt movements to the top. Click again to remove the limit.
•
Bottom tilt limit: Click to limit the camera's tilt movements to the bottom. Click again to remove the limit.
Auto-flip
: Enables the camera head to instantly reverse 360° and continue to pan beyond its mechanical limit.
E-flip
: Automatically corrects the camera view by flipping the image 180° when the camera tilts beyond -90°.
Nadir-flip
: Enables the camera to pan 180° when tilting beyond -90°, and then continue upwards.
Zoom limit: Select a value to limit the camera's maximum zoom level. Optical or digital (e.g. 480x D) values can be selected.
When using a joystick, only digital zoom levels can be used to set the zoom limit.
Near focus limit: Select a value to prevent the camera from autofocusing on objects close to the camera. This way, the camera
can ignore objects such as overhead wires, streetlights, or other nearby objects. To make the camera focus on the areas of interest,
set the near focus limit to a value greater than the distance at which the objects of no interest tend to appear.
Motion
Proportional speed: Turn on to set the maximum proportional speed.
• Max proportional speed: Set a value between 1 and 1000 to limit the pan and tilt speed. Max proportional speed is
defined as a percentage, where the value 1000 equals 1000%.
This is useful when the joystick is pushed all the way out. For example, if the image is approximately 44 degrees wide
when fully zoomed out and the max proportional speed is set to 100 (100%), the maximum speed is about 44
degrees/second. If the image is then zoomed in from 44 to 10 degrees wide, the maximum speed reaches about 10
degrees/second, which is probably too fast for easy viewing. To limit the speed, set the max proportional speed to 50
(50%). This way, the maximum speed only reaches 50% of the maximum for the currently selected zoom level. This
means that when the image is 44 degrees wide, the greatest possible speed is limited to about 22 degrees/second, and
when the view is zoomed in to 10 degrees the speed is limited to about 5 degrees/second.
Adjustable zoom speed: Turn on to use variable speeds when controlling the zoom with a joystick or a mouse wheel. The zoom
speed is automatically set through the command continuouszoommove in the VAPIX® Application Programming Interface
(API). Turn off to use the highest zoom speed which is the same speed for moving to presets.
Freeze image on PTZ
• Off: Never freeze image.
• All movements: Freeze the image while the camera is moving. Once the camera reaches its new position, the
view from that position is shown.
