A function contained within a telemetry system that, on receipt of a signal, causes a particular camera to pan (left to right), tilt (up and down) and zoom (lens) to a predetermined field of view. Most systems can accommodate up to 16 pre-set positions for each camera. This is an especially useful feature on larger systems with alarmed areas.
The pre-positioning of pan, tilt and zoom cameras by the use of potentiometers in the moving parts of the camera head. These allow the control equipment to store and move to a set reference point when the controller dictates or when an alarm exists. Special telemetry equipment is required.
This is a quick and convenient way of remembering and applying groups of settings to multiple playitems. You will find the presets on the "size" controls. Set a playitem up with the the right size, zoom, alignment, border etc then save it as a preset (1 to 6). You can then instantly apply the same settings to any other playitem.
