About the control queue
Note
• The administrator can enable and disable PTZ controls for selected users.
• To identify different users in the viewer group, cookies must be enabled on the client.
• The
Control queue polltime
is measured in seconds. For more information see the online help
.
The administrator can set up a queue for PTZ controllers from
PTZ > Control Queue
. Once set up, the
PTZ Control Queue
buttons
appear in the live view window offering one viewer exclusive control for a limited period of time. Other users will be placed in queue.
A user who belongs to a group (see
) with a higher PTZ priority can go before other users in the queue and take
control of the product. The order of priority is as follows:
1.
Administrator
— An administrator takes over PTZ control regardless of who is first in queue. The administrator will be
removed from the queue 60 seconds after the last PTZ control command.
2.
Event
— The Axis product can be configured to go to a preset position when triggered by an alarm (see
). The event will immediately be placed first in the queue except when an administrator is in control.
3.
Operator
— Same as administrator but with lower priority
4.
Viewer
— Multiple viewers must wait for their turn. The viewer has 60 seconds PTZ control before control is passed
on to the next viewer in queue.
