Ganz GXi Series VCA Interface Manual V3.05.31.18

NOTE: If this function is disabled and the VCA is enabled only at the preset home position, VCA will not
be automatically re-enabled. The only way to re-enable VCA in this mode is to manually return the
camera to the VCA home preset position.
PTZ Auto-tracking Configuration
PTZ auto tracking allows a compatible PTZ camera to track a moving subject in real-time. When a subject
is detected, the PTZ camera zooms in on the subject and moves to track it such that it remains in view of
the camera.
The PTZ auto tracking is configured by the controls highlighted in the red box in the figure below.
Maximum Tracking Time
Defines the maximum time that a subject is tracked for by the PTZ camera. Even if a subject is being
tracked by the PTZ camera, the PTZ camera will stop auto tracking (and return to the VCA home preset
position if configured) if this time elapses.
Maximum Hold-on Time
If a subject is lost by the autotracking algorithm, or comes to rest (becomes stationary), this defines the
amount of time the PTZ camera will stay in that position trying to re-acquire the subject before returning to
the VCA home preset position. If the subject starts moving again, or is reacquired, autotracking continues
until the maximum tracking time (above) elapses.
