PTZ preset positions
PTZ-related properties are only available when you are dealing with a PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom) camera.
You can use PTZ preset positions for making the PTZ camera automatically go to a particular position
when particular events occur, and when setting up PTZ patrolling profiles. Preset positions can also be
used in clients to allow users that have been given rights (see "Configure user and group rights" on
page 166) to move the PTZ camera between preset positions. Names of preset positions must contain
only the characters A-Z, a-z and the digits 0-9. If you import preset positions from cameras (see the
following), verify that their names do not contain other characters. If they do, change the preset
position names before you import them.
Cameras that do not support multiple simultaneous video streams cannot connect to the surveillance
server and the Management Application at the same time. Therefore, Milestone recommends that you
stop (see "Start and stop services" on page 170) the Recording Server service when you configure
such devices for motion detection and PTZ. See also View video from cameras in Management
Application (on page 195).
