PTZ PRESETS
A preset is a user-defined camera position using pan and tilt, zoom, and focus commands (camera’s auto focus option must be off). Only cameras
that support positioning and programming using D, P, or Coaxitron protocols can use this feature. The DX8000 Series DVR can address up to 32
PTZ presets (1-32). Preset 95 is reserved for remote camera setup, and preset 99 is reserved for camera autoscan mode.
The following PTZ operating guidelines must be observed:
