Auto Scan
Many PTZ cameras have an ‘Auto Scan” function. This function usually com-
mands the camera to scan (pan) back and forth repeatedly over a preset location. 
To access this function, the camera’s Auto Scan command number must be 
known. For the camera in this example, the command is ‘098’. The camera may 
have more than one Auto Scan routine that can be accessed by using the appro-
priate command numbers.
