AXIS P1365 Mk II Network Camera
PTZ (Pan Tilt Zoom)
If using multiple view areas, deselecting a control will only disable the control in the selected view area.
Note
Disabling PTZ controls will not affect preset positions. For example, if the tilt control is disabled, the product can still move to
preset positions that require a tilt movement.

Control Queue
Note

• 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 page 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.
Guard Tour
— A guard tour (see
) has PTZ control for an indefinite period of time. It may be overridden by an
operator, event or administrator. The guard tour will resume when higher priority groups leave the queue.
5.
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.
