Preset Positions

A preset position is a predefined view that can be used to quickly steer the camera to a specific location. Preset positions can
be accessed in several ways:
• By selecting the preset from the Source drop-down list in the Live View Page.
• When setting up action rules. See page 33.
• When setting up Guard Tour. See page 26.
To add a preset position:
1. Go to PTZ > Preset Positions.
2. Use the pan, tilt and zoom controls to steer the camera view to the desired position.
3. Enter a descriptive name in the Current position field.
The product can be configured to return to the Home position when the PTZ functionality has been inactive for a specified length
of time. Enter the length of time in the field and click Save. Set the time to zero to prevent the product from automatically
returning to the Home position.
To include the preset position name in the overlay text, go to Video, select Include overlay text and enter the modifier #P in the field.
For more information about modifiers, see File Naming & Date/Time Formats in the online help
Overview Map
An overview map allows us to view the overview image while panning and tilting within a view area. Click within the overview map
to quickly steer the camera view to a new position. The current position is indicated by a green circle. All view areas display an
overview map at the bottom right corner.

Guard Tour

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.

2. Enter a descriptive name.
3. Specify the pause length between runs.
4. Select an available preset position and click Apply.
5. Specify the View Time in seconds or minutes.
6. Specify the View Order or select the Random view order option.
7. Click Save.
To modify or remove guard tours, go to PTZ > Guard Tour, select the guard tour in the Guard Tour List and click Modify/Remove.
