Preset Positions
A preset position is a pre-defined camera view that can quickly and easily be viewed, simply by selecting the preset's name. To
create a preset position:
1. Using the Pan, Tilt and Zoom (PTZ) controls, move the camera view
to the required position.
2. When satisfied with the camera’s view, enter a descriptive name for the position in the Current position field.
3. If required, check the box Use current position as Home.
4. Click Add. This camera position is then saved as a preset position in the camera. The position can be assumed at any
time, by selecting it from the drop-down list of available positions. Presets can be selected from the Live View
window, Event and Guard Tour.
You can set a position as the Home position, which is readily accessible by clicking on the Home button in both the
Preset Position Setup window and the Live View window. The position's name will have (H) added. For example, Office
Entrance (H).
You can return the AXIS M3014 to the overview image after a
set time of viewing a preset position. The interval is
configurable from 0 seconds (i.e. disabled) to 300 seconds.
Guard Tour
A Guard Tour displays the video streams from different preset positions, one-by-one, in a pre-determined order or at random,
and for configurable time periods. Once the preset position has been set, and added to the guard tour, you can decide the
viewing time in seconds or minutes in the Guard Tour Setup window. You can also decide the order in which you will view
these presets, or you can choose a Random view order in this same window.
Advanced
Panel Shortcut Command Buttons can be configured to provide direct access to commands issued via the VAPIX® Application
Programming Interface. The buttons will be displayed in the PTZ control panel, which is available on the Live View page by
clicking the Ctrl panel button.
Enable/Disable controls - – Uncheck the boxes to disable the pan, tilt, zoom, focus and iris controls.
Note: Disabling PTZ controls will affect preset positions. For example, if the tilt cont
rol is disabled, the camera cannot
move to preset positions that require a tilt movement.
