icon will allow you to save the new name to the list. If an existing name is selected, the

X/Delete icon will allow you to remove it from the list.

Note: Before you can use a preset in Blue Iris, you first must use the network camera's web

interface directly to create the preset and/or set it to the desired PTZ position. With some

cameras, the preset names that are used are actually the ordinal numbers, "1", "2", etc. To

handle this in Blue Iris, your presets must begin with the numbers, but may also have text,

such as "1: Front Door."

Note: The preset button numbers within the software correspond to the arrangement of

values on the Preset positions list. If you add a preset 0, or remove any of the default presets

1 through 8, these buttons will no longer directly correlate to your camera's preset

numbers. That is, if you this list has only the values 2, 4, and 8, the buttons 1, 2, and 3 in the

software will call these presets.

The Max travel sec option is used to momentarily pause motion detection on the camera

while it is being moved in order to prevent triggers.

Select the Auto-cycle through presets option to automatically perform a patrol function

through your presets. Select the number of seconds to pause between movements and select

the schedule profiles in which to be active. If you select the Delay while motion sensed

option, the patrol will pause at the current position until the motion sensor is no longer

triggered and motion has stopped. The Auto-reverse cycle order option will cause the presets

to be used sequentially from first to last and then backwards from last to first repeatedly.

When PTZ is enabled for a camera, and the camera is selected in the Live View, the PTZ

controls will be available:

There are four arrows used to move the camera in the corresponding directions--pan left, pan

right, tilt up, and tilt down. To the left of these four buttons is a grid button which may be

used to position the camera absolutely--clicking the button near the top/left will pan the

camera to its left-most stop and tilt it up to its top-most stop; clicking near the center of the

button will center the camera. NOTE: Absolute position is supported by only a small number

of IP cameras.

There are two zoom buttons used to zoom in (the up button) and out (the down button).
