AXIS 231D - Configuring the Network Dome Camera
Dome Configuration
Preset Positions - a preset position is a pre-defined camera view than can be used to
quickly move the camera to a specific location.
From Preset Position Setup, use the Pan, Tilt and Zoom (PTZ) controls to steer the camera
to the required position. When satisfied with the camera's position, enter a descriptive
name. The camera position, iris and focus settings are then saved as a preset position.
The position can be assumed at any time,
by selecting the preset's name from the
Preset positions drop-down list. Preset
positions can be selected in Live View,
from events and in Sequence mode.
One position can be set as the Home
position, which is readily accessible by
clicking on the H button in both the
Preset Position Setup window and the
Live View window. The position's name
will have (H) added, e.g. Office Entrance (H).
Sequence Mode
The Live View page can be configured to rotate through the selected preset positions, in a
set order or randomly.
Select the desired preset positions and enter the time in seconds to display each position
(up to 59 minutes). Click Save.
The Sequence buttons will appear on the Live View page to enable the viewer
to start and stop the sequence mode.
Limits
Define the pan, tilt, zoom and focus limits for the AXIS 231D. Movements to the left and
right, up and down can be restricted to narrow the area under surveillance. The near focus
limit can be set to avoid focusing on objects too close to the camera.
Note: Once a limit has been saved, this position can not be exceeded by the dome camera unless the values have
been reset and saved to a greater value first (i.e. reset the default values of the mechanical restrictions).
Move speed sets the speed of the camera's Pan/Tilt movements. The default setting is
maximum speed.
