The default operation for most cameras is to use the preset list, so the system will constantly send preset commands to the cameras. To add the desired presets, click the Add button:
On this screen you must select the presets that you want to be part of the patrol scheme and you can define a waiting time for each preset, as well as the movement speed:
•Wait time: Set the time (In seconds) that the system will keep the camera in the preset before moving to the next preset.
•Preset Movement Speed: Some cameras allow you to specify a movement speed when calling the preset, so if you decrease this value (Represented as a percentage), the camera can move faster or slower for a given preset.
You can set independent speed and hold time values for each preset.
To change the preset order, simply select the desired preset from the list and click on the up and down arrows located on the right side of the list.

During patrol operation, the system will send the preset positioning command to the camera and wait for the preset time + the specified global time, that is, if you set a global time of 3 seconds and an individual time of 3 seconds to a preset, then the system will wait 6 seconds before sending the command to move to the next preset. |
