Chapter 3 Configuring and Managing the IP Camera
Feature Setup Windows
Patrol Sequence Window
The Patrol Sequence window provides options for configuring a patrol sequence for the IP camera. A
patrol sequence consists of up to eight steps, each of which causes the camera to move to a designated
preset position and remain in the position for a designated time.
When you create a patrol sequence, you define the order of the steps. When the patrol sequence runs, the
IP camera goes to the preset position that is defined by the first step, then moves through each preset
position in the configured order. It stops at the preset position that is defined by the last step.
Before you can configure a patrol sequence, you must define preset positions as described in the “Presets
controls” rows in Table 4-1. These rows also explain how to start and stop the execution of a patrol
sequence.
To display the Patrol Sequence window, access the configuration windows as described in the
“Performing the Initial Setup of the IP Camera” section on page 2-5, click Feature Setup, then click
Patrol Sequence.
If you change any options in this window, you must click the Save Settings button to save the change.
If you do not click this button, changes are not retained when you exit the window. Save Settings appears
at the bottom of the window. You may need to scroll down to it.
