Pyramid 2 Keyboard Installation and Operating Instructions
SETTING ELECTRONIC LIMIT STOPS
Limit Stops are used to restrict the mobility of a PTZ camera. A pan and tilt zone can be set up with a Limit Stop at each
corner, and the PTZ camera is unable to move beyond the boundaries of this zone.
There are a number of situations where Limit Stops might be used:
• For privacy issues.
• Where cameras are wall-mounted, and measures need to be taken to prevent the camera from hitting the wall. In this
instance, the limit stops should only be used as a temporary measure. Physical limits should be installed to ensure that
there is no damage to the camera.
• To restrict the use of pan and tilt components and so reducing wear and tear on PTZ units.
The Pyramid 2 Keyboard can be used to specify Electronic Limit Stops for PTZ cameras. To do this, follow the steps below:
1. Select the PTZ camera to which the Limit Stops are to be programmed - see
Selecting a Camera on page 14.
2. Press the Utility Menu screen key.
3. Press the Receiver Utilities soft-key.
4. Press the Limit Stops soft-key. The Limit Stops Programming screen is displayed (Figure 73).
