AXIS 213 PTZ
PTZ Configuration
Preset Positions
A preset position is a pre-defined camera view than can be quickly and easily moved to and viewed, simply
by selecting the preset.
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 213 PTZ will assume the
exact position when the preset's name
is selected - from the Preset positions
drop-down list on the Live View page,
or by events or Sequence modes (see
below).
Any 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).
Sequence Mode
The Live View page can be configured to rotate through selected preset positions, in a set order or
randomly. External video sources can also be included in these sequences.
Select the desired preset positions and/or external video sources and enter the time to display each position.
Click Save.
The Sequence buttons will appear on the Live View page - to enable the viewer to start and
stop the sequence mode.
Advanced - Limits
Define the pan, tilt and zoom limits for the AXIS 213 PTZ. Movements to the left and right, up and down
can be restricted to narrow the area under surveillance. See the online help for more information.
Advanced - Ctrl Panel
This allows you to add shortcut command buttons to the control panel. This requires 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.
Advanced - Control Queue
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.
