1.4 Function Description
Auto-adaptive to Protocol and Module
The dome can auto-adapt to multiple protocols and many camera modules.
3D Allocation
Allow the camera to operate both the pan and tilt simultaneously while recalling presets, for
faster operation.
Pattern
Records the user's operation of the PTZ controls and plays them back exactly as they were
originally performed. Rather than a tour, where the camera moves single point to single point,
the movement of a pattern follows all the nuance of the operator's input.
This dome camera has 4 path patterns. Each path can record 512 different instructions or the
longest 15 min of path operation, whichever is less.
Zero Alignment
The user can specify a pan-position point to be the camera's "zero point". When the dome is in
use, preset drift can occur over time. If this happens, the zero-point can be used as a reference
for the dome to reset its alignment.
Auto Flip
In the manual tracking mode, when a target goes directly beneath the dome, the dome will
automatically rotate 180 degree in horizontal direction to maintain continuity of tracking. When
the dome flips, the camera starts moving upward as long as you hold the joystick in the down
position.
Focus
The auto focus feature enables the camera to focus automatically to maintain clear image. The
user can also use manual focus when conditions require it, such as when there are near and far
objects in the frame at the same time.
Under the following conditions, the camera may not auto focus on the target:
(1) The target is not in the center of the screen;
(2) Attempting to view 2 subjects which are far and near at the same time;
(3) The target is a brightly lit object, such as a neon lamp, etc.;.
(4) The camera's dome is covered with water droplets or dust;
(5) Targets are moving quickly;
(6) Large area targets without much detail, such as wall;
(7) Targets which are too dark or faint.
