Starting and Stopping Camera Tracking with EagleEye Director
If EagleEye Director tracking is enabled, the camera follows the person or
people who are speaking. This tracking action, also called automatic camera
positioning, can be manually started or stopped.
To start camera tracking:
>> Press the Option button on the remote control and select Start
Camera Tracking.
To stop camera tracking:
>> Press the Option button on the remote control and select Stop
Camera Tracking.
Camera tracking can also start or stop based on the following actions:
• Camera tracking starts automatically when you make a call.
• Camera tracking stops once you hang up a call.
• Camera tracking temporarily stops when you mute the HDX system. It
resumes when you unmute the HDX system.
Setting and Using Camera Presets
Camera presets are stored camera positions that you can create ahead of time
or during a call. The system uses preset 0 as the default camera position.
Presets allow you to:
• Quickly point a camera at pre-defined locations in a room.
• Select a video source such as a VCR or DVD player, a document camera,
or an auxiliary camera.
If your system’s camera supports pan, tilt, and zoom movement, you can
create up to 100 preset camera positions (0-99) for the near site. Each preset
stores the camera number, its zoom level, and the direction it points. These
presets remain in effect until you delete or change them.
If far-site camera control is allowed, you can create up to 16 presets (0-15) for
the far-site camera. These presets are saved only for the duration of the call.
You might also be able to use presets that were created at the far site to control
the far-site camera.
