Preset Positions
To enable quick and accurate camera positioning to known camera hotspots, the
Administrator can set and save any camera orientation as a named entity - a Preset
Position, which can be used at any time. The orientation for the camera is controlled by
Pan and Tilt control bars.
Follow the instructions below to define a preset position:
1. From the COM-Port page, click the Preset Position button. An image from the camera
(at its current position) is displayed in a new window.
2. By clicking in the image or by using the Pan Tilt and Zoom (if supported) control bars,
move the camera to the desired position.
3. Enter a descriptive name in the Current Position field.
4. Click Save to register the new preset position with the AXIS 2420 and then check that
the entered name is included in the Preset Positions drop-down list. You can
alternatively choose to save the position as a new Home position, by clicking the Save
as Home button.
5. Click Delete if you want to remove the selected preset position.
Established preset positions are selected from the Preset Positions drop-down list on the
application viewing page.
