  • Network Settings  PTZ Camera moves slowly. It sometimes moves and sometimes does not move. And its motion is not smooth.

    The same transmission line is also used for video signals. So if the transmission conditions are poor, the camera does not move well. The following options may work in this case. Please give them a try.

    1. Change the frequency (2.5/5GHz) or channel of the router to search for good conditions.

    2. Change Image Quality to Low (QVGA) or change Frame Rate of PTZ Camera (HD integrated camera) to 5 fps so that the transmission band from the camera is reduced.

  • Calibration  What is the difference between General mode amd Partial Adjustment mode?

    General-mode calibration can make an adjustment using 9 marker positions on the screen for Sub-Camera (AW-HEA10) picture. But, in some cases, this is not all that can increase the accuracy. That is because, If an object is not seen on the Sub-Camera screen (for example, one person is sitting behind the other), the angle calculated from Sub-Camera screen is different from the angle at which that object is actually positioned.

    In that case, an additional adjustment should be made in Partial Adjustment mode. Partial Adjustment function enables the adjustment even when one object stands behind the other.

  • Calibration  How can the adjustment accuracy be increased when capturing a nearby or distant object?

    Partial Adjustment function can adjust the differences of up to 10 positions.

    General mode can adjust the screen for Sub-Camera (AW-HEA10) picture. But, if one object is behind the other, the angle at which this object appears to be positioned on the screen will be different from the actual angle. So an additional adjustment can be made to this difference between apparent and actual angles by Partial Adjustment function to increase the accuracy.

  • Calibration  It takes time to perform calibration for as many as 9 positions in General mode. Is there any eaisier way to do this?
