These menu settings do not affect the camera speed when acquiring a preset
target. Presets are solved at the fastest possible speed regardless of the
maximum manual speed selected. Default setting for pan speed is 100° per
second, while tilt speed is 90° per second.
The System Settings menu also allows the user to enable or disable Zoom
Scalable Pan/Tilt. When enabled, this feature adjusts the pan and tilt speed
relative to the amount of magnification provided. When the camera is zoomed in
on a subject, the speed is slowed down to compensate for the size of the image.
This allows a finer range of motion when looking at close-up subjects. The default
is enabled.
The System Settings menu includes a compass feature. The compass feature
provides a directional title display, a 0-360º pan reading display and a -2.5º to
92.5º tilt reading display in the format North 312/35. This feature allows an
operator to program and utilize a continuous absolute pan and tilt display reading.
To set true North position (Zero Compass):
1. At the camera dome, verify that the camera’s approximate North position
can be viewed and locally panned with a keypad.
2. Using a compass or any other positioning device as a reference, position
the dome’s camera until it is facing true North.
3. Press the A/P key to set this position.
4. The compass title should display N 360/X. N is North, 360º is the true
North setting and X is a fixed null tilt position.
The PTZ Timeout feature, when enabled, allows the unit to timeout if manual pan,
tilt or zoom is active for a programmable amount of time up to 255 seconds. This
feature allows you to select an Action, Stop or Preset, when it occurs. When this
occurs, a message displays for 2 seconds. This will not occur if autopanning or
any automatic function is active.
The Address Setting allows overriding the DIP switch address. When the
address is changed, the dome will reset. Installing factory defaults will not reset
the override address. To disable the override feature either set the dome for
Vicoax or call up the current address and disable it.
On the 23X/35X (day/night) camera, there is an Image Flip option that can be
enabled or disabled. This is used when mounting the dome in an inverted position.
When enabled, be aware that certain functions are reversed to compensate for the
image flip.
