Patrol
: Once the Administrator has determined the list of preset positions (including the zoom-in action
on a particular position), click this button to command the camera to patrol among those positions on
the Patrol List. The Network Camera will patrol continuously. For more information, please refer to PTZ
Track
: Allows the camera to move along following the moving objects in the current field of view. If you
observe an object of your interest, click this button to track the object. Note that this function does not
apply in an extremely crowded area, such as a market or sidewalk full of pedestrian activities. Constant
shift of tracked objects will decrease the usability of this feature.
Once started, you can use the Stop button to stop the current action. A click on the screen can also stop
the tracking action.
Another key concept is that the camera only detect movements within the current field of view.
