How does PTZ camera react if it has many different preset positions and different auto-tracking criteria? Eg : preset 1 > track people, preset 2 > track vehicle

  • Network Cameras
  • Specification

As soon as camera move to a preset position, it starts tracking under the auto-tracking conditions for that preset position. Auto-tracking identifies objects such as people for preset 1, vehicle for preset 2, etc.

If an object moves out of the tracking view or when the set longest tracking time has elapsed, camera will stop at that position.
To return to auto mode, set the self return, and after tracking is finished, the self return time is counted and the camera returns to auto mode.

It will back to the first preset posision after time of home position.
