Event Window (for PTZ Preset Positions on Event)
Available only when dealing with a PTZ (Pan/Tilt/Zoom) camera, the Event window (for preset
positions on events) lets you associate particular preset positions with particular events, timer events
or event buttons. You are thus able to make the PTZ camera automatically go to a particular preset
position when a particular event occurs.
The Event window (for preset positions on events)
Access: To access the Event window (for preset positions on events), click the Setup... button in
Preset Position on Events section of the
PTZ Preset Positions for [Device Name] [Camera Name]
window
.
Note: To use preset positions on events, you must have specified events, event or
generic events
.
Only one PTZ preset position can be defined per event per camera.
Associating Preset Positions with Particular Events
When associating a preset position from a particular PTZ camera with one or more events, you
are able to select between all events defined on the NetDVMS system; you are not limited to
selecting events defined on a particular device.
To associate a particular preset position with a particular event, do the following:
1.
Select the required preset position in the Available Preset Positions list in the left side of the
Event window.
2.
Select the required event in the list of available events (the list in the middle of the window).
3.
Click the >> button located to the right of the Available Events list.
This will copy the selected event to the window's rightmost list, in which events associated
with the selected preset position are listed. When the selected event occurs, or when the
selected event button is clicked, the PTZ camera will automatically move to the required
preset position.
You are able to associate a preset position with more than one event: Simply repeat the process
for each required association.
To end the association between a particular preset position and a particular event, simply select
the required event in the window's rightmost list, and click the << button.
