AXIS P5532/AXIS P5534 - PTZ (Pan Tilt Zoom)
PTZ (Pan Tilt Zoom)
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.
The position can be assumed at any time
by selecting the preset's name from the
Preset position’s drop-down list. Preset
positions can be selected on the Live View
page, in Event Types, in Guard Tour and in the Gatekeeper.
One position can be set as the Home position, which is readily accessible by clicking the Home button in both the Preset
Position Setup window and the Live View window. The position's name will have (H) added, for example, Entrance (H).
AXIS P5532/AXIS P5534 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.
The preset position name can be included in the overlay image text, see Overlay Settings, on page 14.
Guard Tour
A guard tour displays the video stream from different preset positions, one-by-one, in a pre-determined order or randomly,
and for configurable time periods. The guard tour will keep running after the user has logged off or closed the browser.
Note:
The pause between guard tour runs must be set to at least 10 minutes.
OSDI Zones
On-Screen Direction Indicator (OSDI) Zones can be included in the overlay text (see page 14) to aid the user to navigate the
camera. Each OSDI Zone is set up with coordinates and a descriptive name.
The camera uses the coordinates of the center of the image to set the lower left and upper right zone areas. First navigate to
where you would like the lowermost left point of the OSDI Zone to be located. By clicking Get the coordinates are set. Proceed
to where the upper right point of the zone should be located and click its Get button. Give the zone a descriptive name and
click OK.
To include the name of the OSDI Zone in the overlay text, go to Video & Audio > Video Stream > Overlay Settings. Check the
Include text box and enter the modifier #L in the field. See File Naming & Date/Time Formats in the online help for more
information about modifiers.
