Session ends... Behavior
Stay put The camera remains in the last position used by the operator. If it
is panning, it keeps on panning; if it is not moving, it stays put.
The “stay put” behavior makes available the Return to Auto-iris
and Return to Auto-focus options.
Go to preset 1 The camera returns to “preset 1” configured using Multi.
Start tour 1* Some camera models can keep moving when not in use by an
operator.
* A “PTZ tour” differs from site tours; see 9: Watching Site Tours.
PTZ and motion search
Video recorded while a PTZ dome or camera can be searched for motion. When the
camera is fixed, results are as expected; see 5: Searching for Motion, on p. 5–1.
However, motion search is not effective on video recorded as a PTZ camera is panning,
tilting or zooming. If you plan to use motion search on a PTZ camera, use “Stay put” or a
preset after close of session. See table 8. Motion search can also be used to find out
when a PTZ camera was moved, if that camera should be staying put.
