Azimuth, Elevation, and Compass Directions
The camera can display the following data in the lower-right corner of the image display:
–
Azimuth
- The pan angle from zero to 359 degrees in one-degree increments. An azimuth
of zero degrees corresponds to North.
–
Elevation
- The tilt position from zero (horizon) to -90 degrees (camera pointing straight
down) in one-degree increments.
–
Compass
- The cardinal or intercardinal (N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW) heading in which
the camera is pointing.
The camera allows users to display only the azimuth/elevation readings or only the compass
reading, or both readings at the same time. The camera displays the azimuth/ elevation
readings and the compass heading in a format such as “180 / -45 S,” where:
–
180 is the Azimuth or the pan location in degrees.
–
-45 is the Elevation or the tilt location in degrees.
–
S is the compass direction (cardinal or intercardinal).
The camera uses the azimuth to determine the compass direction. The following table shows
the azimuth range and its corresponding compass heading:
Azimuth Range
Compass Direction
21° to 65° NE (Northeast)
66° to 110° E (East)
111° to 155° SE (Southeast)
156° to 200° S (South)
201° to 245° SW (Southwest)
246° to 290° W (West)
291° to 335° NW (Northwest)
336° to 20° N (North)
21° to 65° NE (Northeast)
66° to 110° E (East)
111° to 155° SE (Southeast)
156° to 200° S (South)
201° to 245° SW (Southwest)
246° to 290° W (West)
291° to 335° NW (Northwest)
336° to 20° N (North)
The camera uses the Azimuth Zero point, usually set to magnetic North, as the zero degree
pan position and as the North compass heading. The camera then displays the azimuth
reading and the compass heading based on the number of degrees from the Azimuth Zero
point.
Notice!
Bosch recommends that only the installer calibrate the Azimuth Zero point. A recalibration to
the Azimuth Zero point may cause inaccurate compass headings.
Set the Azimuth Zero point:
1.
Determine the North compass heading, then move the camera to that position.
2.
Use the command AUX OFF-90-ENTER to turn off the command lock (if active).
3.
Use the command AUX ON-94-ENTER to set the Azimuth Zero point.
Display/hide the azimuth/elevation reading:
–
Use the command AUX ON-95-ENTER to display the azimuth/elevation reading.
–
Use the command AUX OFF-95-ENTER to hide the azimuth/elevation reading.
Display/hide the compass heading:
–
Use the command AUX ON-96-ENTER to display the compass heading.
–
Use the command AUX OFF-96-ENTER to hide the compass heading.
