Create the necessary presets before setting up configuring patrolling in Axxon PSIM. This can be done through the IP device web interface or in the Axxon PSIM software itself, for example, using the Universal PTZ Telemetry control panel (see PTZ control with Universal PTZ control panel).
Creating a route for patrolling
The procedure for configuring patrolling is as follows:
Using the Patrol study action macro for the PTZ device, create a route for patrolling—macros for switching between the presets of the PTZ camera. Each point created in the macro will correspond to each preset. The last macro of the route must be a macro with the Yes value for the Record route parameter. This is the signal that the route is complete and it can be saved.
For the created route for patrolling, create the macros to start and stop the route—the actions Patrol and Patrol stop for the PTZ device, respectively. Specify the number of the created route for patrolling in the parameters of these macros.
To study the route for patrolling, it is necessary to run the Patrol study macro sequentially in the same order as the patrolling will happen.
- Later to start and stop the patrolling, it is necessary to use the Patrol and Patrol stop macros.
Creating a route for patrolling
To create a route for patrolling, add points to the route using the Patrol study action macro. 
Create a Use the following macro to add a cruise point to the patrolling route (use separate macro for each point):
Parameters description:
| Parameter name | Description | Value range |
|---|---|---|
| Record route | Shows if the point is the last in the route |
Yes |
—this is the last point in the route, save the route. No |
—another point is expected in the route. | |
| Speed | The speed of the camera movement to the specified point |
0 – 10 | ||
| Priority | The priority of the command to rotate to the specified preset. See Priorities of PTZ control | Low Medium High |
| Point | The cruise point identifier. Note. If you specify a point number that is more than 1 more than the last one, then the next sequential number will be assigned to the point. For example, point No. 10 cannot be created after point No. 3, the number will automatically be set to 4 |
1–31 | |
| Preset | The ID number of the preset corresponding to the cruise point |
| 1–255 | |
| Delay | Time period during which the device should stay in the preset |
| 3–3600 | |
| Route | Patrolling route identification number. The first route must be No. 0. The identifiers can be set in no particular order, for example, the route No. 8 can be created before route No. 3 |
0–7 |
Running and stopping the patrolling
...
Consider the following aspects while when using these macros:
- The Patrol stop macro acts only after the Patrol macro. I, i.e. if you run the Patrol macro, restart Axxon PSIM and then try to run the Patrol stop macro, the latter one will not be run.
- If the route number different from the previously started route is specified in the Patrol stop command, the patrolling of the current route will be stopped.
