PTZ Configuration
Preset Positions
A preset position is a pre-defined camera view that
can quickly and easily be viewed.
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. This camera
position is then saved as a preset position.
The AXIS 212 PTZ will take the exact position when
the preset's name is selected from the Preset position’s
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 Home 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).
You can return the AXIS 212 PTZ 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. The default interval is 30 seconds.
Guard Tour
A Guard Tour displays the video streams from different preset positions from cameras in the system,
one-by-one, in a pre-determined order or randomly, and for configurable time periods. Once the preset position
has been set, and added to the guard tour, the following settings can be made:
• View Time in seconds or minutes
• View Order (or Random)
Advanced - Ctrl Panel
This allows you to add a shortcut command button to the control panel on the Live View page. This requires the
URL (path) to the command accessed via the HTTP API. See the online help for more information.
