Setting and calling up preset tours

Preset tours move a PTZ dome camera to different steps (called “Keypoint” in the
interface). The camera stays at a step for a set dwell time before moving on to the next
step. The steps are defined by presets (see “Setting and calling up presets” on page
44).

Each preset tour consists of steps. A step consists of a step number, a dwell time, and
a speed.

The step number is the order the camera will follow while cycling through the preset
tour. The dwell time is the length of time for which a camera stays at a step before
moving to the next one. The speed is the rate at which the camera will move from one
key point to the next.

Note:

The PTZ dome camera used must be able to support a preset tour command.

See Appendix F on page 157 for the complete list of PTZ commands available by
camera protocol.
