accurate caused by the operator. User can make the dome automatically enable the zero
alignment by operational order.
Auto Flip
In the manual scanning mode, when beyond the maximum angle in tilt and if the joystick is held
continuing in tilt direction, the dome will automatically rotate 180 degree in horizontal direction
to maintain continuity of scanning. So vertical 180° continuous monitoring comes true.
