10=highest)
Defines the relative PTZ priority between users. A user with higher
priority can take away PTZ control from a user with lower priority.
Please note: The automated PTZ actions started by the event
manager and scheduled routes have priority 4. Therefore users with
priority 1 to 3 will be overridden by automatic PTZ actions, whereby
users with priority 5 to 10 can override automatic PTZ actions but
will not be interrupted by them.
Max. PTZ use time (sec)
Maximum allocation time, after which a PTZ camera is
automatically released. Zero means no limit.
PTZ inactivity timeout (sec) When a user has taken PTZ control and is inactive for a certain
amount of time, the PTZ camera is freed automatically after this
