Configuring Options in the PTZMenu
The PTZ Menu provides configuration options for Positioning, Presets, Preset Tours, Patterns, Scans,
PTZ Zones, and Pelco Camera Link.
Configuring Positioning
1. Select Positioning from the PTZ menu.
2. Enable Digital Zoom by clicking On. Click Off to enable optical zoom.
Note
: Digital Zoom and Image Stabilization cannot be used at the same time.
3. Click On to enable the Freeze Frame control. Freeze Frame is a technique that stops the moving
image of the film and holds it motionless on screen.
4. Select the Pan/Tilt Speed Control type:
l A: Linear: Pan and tilt speeds accelerate at a fixed rate.
l B: Exponential: Pan and tilt speeds accelerate at a rate corresponding to the length of time for
which a user engages pan and tilt controls; the longer a user engages pan and tilt controls, the
faster the camera will pan and tilt.
l Proportional Velocity: Automatically reduces pan and tilt speeds proportional to the camera’s
zoom level.
l Auto Flip: Allows the camera to rotate 180 degrees when the tilt is pointing straight down (e.g.
–90 degrees tilt angle).
l PTZ Resume: Allows the dome to recover the last PTZ action requested before the camera
loses power. The camera will resume the previous action upon start-up.
l Max Zoom Speed: The numeric values that can be selected using the slider bar represents a
percentage of the maximum zoom speed. Values range from 10 to 100. For example, setting
the slider to 50 for 50% tells the camera to zoom at half the speed.
5. Use the Pan Center Point to determine the zero point for pan operations. Setting a new center point
automatically adjusts Pan Limit Stop settings to account for the new center point.
l To determine the current center point, click Go To Pan Center Point.
l To establish a new pattern center point, use the cursor or joystick to pan to the new center point
location and click Set New Pattern Center Point.
l Click Restore Default Center Point to restore the camera’s default center position.
6. Set Limit Stops to limit the range of motion for your camera. Pan and tilt limit values are provided in
degrees.
a. Click Start Configuring Limits.
Note
: During configuration, limits are disabled on the camera. You must complete the
configuration process before limits will be enabled.
b. Configure the left and right pan limits and the top and bottom tilt limits. You can provide a
value, in degrees, for each limit, or click Get Current Pan/Tilt to retrieve the current value
from the video preview window.
