AXIS 214 PTZ
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 214 PTZ will take the exact position
when the preset's name is selected from the
Preset positions drop-do
wn list. Preset positions
can be selected in Live View, from events and in
Sequence mode.
One position can be set as the Hom
e position,
which is readily accessible by clicking on the
Home button in both the Preset Position Setup
window and the Live View window.
Guard Tour
A guard tour displays different preset positions,
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
•
Move Speed - sets the speed of the Pan/Tilt movements to the preset position
• View Order (or Random)
Advanced - Limits
Define the pan, tilt and zoom limits for the AXIS 214 PTZ. Movements to the left and right, up and down
can be restricted to narrow the area under surveillance. See the online help for further information.
Advanced - Ctrl Panel
This allows you to add a shortcut command button to the control panel. This requires you to provide the
URL (path) to an auxiliary command provided by the PTZ driver, or to some other command accessed via
the HTTP API. See the online help for more information.
Advanced - Calibration
The area zoom functionality available on the Live View page can be calibrated from here.

PTZ Control Queue - The administrator can set up a queue for the PTZ controls. Once set up, the PTZ
Control Queue buttons will appear on the Live View page offering one viewer exclusive control for a limited
amount of time. Other users will be placed in the queue.
