Advanced
Limits
Define the pan, tilt, zo om and focus limits for the Axis product. Movements to the left and right, up and down, can be restricted to
narrow the area under surveillance.
Move speed sets the speed of the camera’s pan and tilt movements. The default setting is maxim um speed.
When using a jo ystick (or emulating one with the mouse) the Enable proportional speed setting can be used to reduce the maximum
pan/tilt movement speed, i.e. the speed the camera view move s at w h en the jo yst ick is pushed all the way out in any direction. This is
useful then the view is zoomed in on an object.
See the online help
for more information.
