AXIS 240Q - Pan Tilt Zoom

Preset Positions

Also available with many PTZ devices are Preset positions. These presets are selected from

the drop-down Source list on the Live View page and will move and/or zoom the camera

to a pre-defined position, i.e. to cover an area of particular interest. Events can also be

configured to go to preset positions when triggered. For information on setting up preset

positions, please see Preset Positions, on page 29 and the online help.

G

uard Tour

A guard tour moves between chosen Preset Positions, one-by-one, in a pre-determined

order or randomly, and for configurable time periods. Unlike the Sequence Mode, which is

a viewing application under Live View Config (see Live View Config, on page 19), the

guard tour sequence will keep running after the user has logged off or closed the Web

browser.

Advanced

Device Settings - The device settings window is for driver specific settings, so the

appearance of this window can vary depending on the driver installed. Options that can be

configured include: Driver Specific Settings for Video Source 1, Mechanical Limits for

Moving Video Source 1, Light Control for Video Source 1, and Extended Driver Specific

Settings for Video Source 1.

Ctrl Panel - The Panel View Settings window contains tools for creating and saving short

command buttons that are located under the Control panel. These buttons provide direct

access to various built-in auxiliary commands provided by the PTZ driver and are

displayed in the PTZ Panel.

Limits - Define the pan, tilt, zoom and focus limits for the AXIS 240Q. Movements to the

left and right, up and down can be restricted to narrow the area under surveillance. The

near focus limit can be set to avoid focusing on objects too close to the camera.
