4.12 PRESET CAMERA POSITIONS
4.12.1 Define Preset Camera Positions
A preset camera position is a set of parameters that define pan, tilt, zoom and focus positions for a camera.
When a preset camera position is recalled, it moves the camera to the exact position and settings that were
programmed.
NOTE: Setting preset positions is only possible when a camera receiver/drivers is fitted with zoom
lenses, and pan and tilt heads that contain preset potentiometers.

To set a preset camera position:
1. Select the camera required (refer to Selecting Cameras).
2. Using the camera control functions, select the required preset position.
3. Select Define Preset from the Program menu option. The Define Camera Preset win-
dow will appear.
NOTE: If identical numbers are chosen, a preset camera position will overwrite an existing
