About the Patrolling tab

The following devices have a Patrolling tab:

Cameras

On the Patrolling tab, you can create patrolling profiles - the automatic movement of a PTZ
(Pan/Tilt/Zoom) camera between a number of preset positions.
Before you can work with patrolling, you must specify at least two preset positions for the camera in
the Presets tab.

Patrolling profiles are the definitions of how patrolling should take place. This includes the order in
which the camera should move between preset positions and how long it should remain at each
position. You can create an unlimited number of patrolling profiles and use them in your rules. For
example, you may create a rule specifying that one patrolling profile should be used during daytime
opening hours and another during nights.
