DX8100 PTZ PATTERNS
A pattern is a user-defined, viewable camera path with a definite beginning and end. Patterns are made up of a sequence of standard pan,
tilt
and lens commands. Patterns are stored in the internal memory of the PTZ device, such as a Spectra
®
dome, that is connected to the DX8100
.
Depending on the type and configuration of the PTZ device, the DX8100 can address up to four unique PTZ patterns. Once defined, a pattern can
be activated with a series of on-screen commands. A pattern will run con
tinuously until it is deactivated.
Only PTZ-enabled cameras that support pattern programming through D,
P, Coaxitron, or supported third-party protocols can use this featur
e.
The PTZ controls are hidden in the extended view mode. In this case, select the standard view mode to display the PTZ controls
.
