  • Page 25: Section 4: Presets

    SECTION 4: PRESETS 4.0 DEFINITION A preset is a user-defined camera position including pan, tilt, zoom, focus, and iris settings. Up to 128 presets (numbered 0-127) can be stored in the RapidDome or telemetry receiver. Note: In an alarm system, presets can be defined as alarm presets. If both alarm presets and non-alarm presets are going to be defined, they must have different numbers so cameras in alarm status are not repositioned in error.

  • Page 26: Section 5: Tours

    SECTION 5: TOURS 5.0 DEFINTION A tour is a series of presets stored in memory that can be started by an operator causing the RapidDome to travel to the defined presets automatically.

  • Page 27: Section 6: Mimic Tours

    SECTION 6: MIMIC TOURS 6.0 DEFINITION This feature allows an operator to “record” a sequence of RapidDome pan/tilt/zoom actions that can be played back as a tour. This is similar to programming a tour, but has the extra flexibility of being able to define a particular path instead of using a sequence of presets.

If the camera has not stabilized when the second measurement is made, the displayed SYNC DIFFERENCE has no useful meaning.

  • Page 38: Privacy Zones

    7.1.5 Privacy Zones Privacy zones, as the name suggests, means that specified areas cannot be viewed or recorded (e.g. cameras that are used in an industrial estate, but which could also overlook a residential area). A privacy zone allows the operator to define an area that can be blanked out, and will therefore not be viewable to the operator on a monitor.

  • Page 39: Tips For Defining A Preset That Is Defined As A Privacy Zone

    7.1.5.1 Tips for Defining a Preset that is defined as a Privacy Zone When defining the preset that is to be a privacy zone, it should be noted that the whole screen that is currently in view will become blanked when it is turned into a privacy zone. In Figure 1(a), if the house is to become a Privacy Zone, then you should zoom in until the house fills the whole screen as shown in Figure 1(b) then define it as a preset.

    7.1.5.3 Additional Points to Remember about Privacy Zones If the MaxCom memory is reset, by removing the battery link, the camera will still have Privacy Zones defined. Entering the MaxCom Privacy Zone menu will show that there are no Privacy Zones defined, i.e. the Preset will all show the default setting of Standard. To remove the Privacy Zones you must set each Privacy Zone to Privacy then back to Standard.
