Configuring a Preset
A preset is a camera position that you can configure and call as a single command, allowing users to
quickly move the camera to common positions.
To establish a new preset:
1. Select Presets from the PTZ menu.
2. In the Presets window, click New or select the preset you want to edit.
3. Provide a name for the preset.
4. Select the Focus Lock mode:
l On: The camera’s focus settings are saved with the preset, and are called with the preset. This
ensures that the camera uses the expected focal point any time the preset is selected.
l Off: The preset does not retain focus settings. This mode requires the camera to use current
focus setting when the preset is selected.
If an operator has changed the focus of the camera before the preset is selected, it is possible that
the camera will be out of focus when the camera displays the preset position later. Turn on Focus
Lock to avoid this problem.
5. Position the camera using the pan and tilt controls.
6. Adjust the zoom and focus controls as necessary.
7. Click Save.
8. To delete a preset, click to select the preset in the Presets area, and then click Delete Preset.
Configuring a Preset Tour
You must configure presets before adding them to a preset tour. A preset tour is a series of presets through
which your camera will cycle. You can configure the length of time for which the camera will remain at each
preset position in the tour.
1. Click New or select the preset tour you want to edit.
2. Provide a name for the tour.
3. For each preset to add to the tour:
a. Click and drag the preset to the Tour workspace section of the page.
b. Set the dwell time for the preset. Dwell time is the length of time (in minutes or seconds) the
camera will remain at a preset position before engaging the next preset in the tour.
c. Set the transition speed for the preset.
4. Click >> in the Transition preview area to review the tour.
5. Click Save.
6. To delete a tour, click to highlight the tour in the Tours area, and then click Delete Tour.
