The PTZ device object is used to register and configure the PTZ device in Axxon PSIM.
The settings panel of the PTZ device object is shown in the figure.
The Main tab.
The Calibration tab.
Table describes the parameters of the settings corresponding to the elements of the settings panel of the PTZ device object.
№ | Parameter | Method for setting the parameter value | Parameter description | Representation | Default value | Value range |
1 | Identification number* | Automatically | Displays the identification number of the PTZ device object in the digital video surveillance system with the distributed architecture | Numbers, letters, periods, hyphen, dash and underscore | - | Depends on the number of the PTZ device objects in the digital video surveillance system with the distributed architecture |
2 | Name* | Enter the value into the field | Sets the name of the PTZ device object in the digital video surveillance system with the distributed architecture | Latin, Cyrillic characters and service characters | PTZ device | A line containing a sequence of any characters (letters, digits, service characters except > and < characters), case-insensitive. Number of characters—from 1 to 60 |
3 | Disable | Set the checkbox | Sets the state of the PTZ device object (enabled or disabled) in the digital video surveillance system with the distributed architecture | Boolean type | Clear | Set—the PTZ device object is disabled and isn't used Clear—the PTZ device object is enabled and is used |
4 | Telemetry Controller | Select the value from the list | Sets the Telemetry Controller parent object of the digital system with the distributed architecture, to which the given PTZ device object belongs | Name of the PTZ device objects registered in the system | Name of the Telemetry Controller parent object | Depends on the number of the telemetry controllers in the digital system with the distributed architecture |
The Camera group | ||||||
5 | Number | Select the value from the list | Set the identification number of the video camera, where the PTZ device is installed | Sequence of numbers | Not defined | Depends on the number of video cameras in the digital video surveillance system with the distributed architecture |
6 | Camera | Select the value from the list | Matches the PTZ device with the video camera, where it is installed. The parameter is used by the Video surveillance monitor and the Telemetry panel to control the PTZ devices of the video cameras | Name of the Camera objects registered in the system | No | Depends on the number of the Camera objects in the digital video surveillance system with the distributed architecture |
7 | Presets | Set the checkbox | Selects the presets that should be displayed in the Telemetry control panel | Boolean type | Clear | Up to 355 presets can be enabled. The maximum number depends on the device, see Appendix 6. Maximum number of presets for IP devices. Set—the preset name is displayed in the Telemetry control panel Clear—the preset name isn't displayed in the Telemetry control panel |
Name | Enter the value into the field | Sets the preset name to display on the Telemetry control panel | Latin, Cyrillic characters and service characters | Preset | A line containing a sequence of any characters (letters, digits, service characters), case-insensitive | |
8 | Select/Deselect | Set the checkbox | Sets/clears the checkboxes next to all the elements in the Presets table | Boolean type | Clear | Set—select all presets Clear—deselect all presets |
