Specify PTZ session timeouts

Management Client and XProtect Smart Client users with the necessary user rights can manually interrupt the patrolling of PTZ cameras.

You can specify how much time should pass before regular patrolling is resumed for all PTZ cameras on your system:

Select Tools > Options.
On the Options window's General tab, select the amount of time in the:
- Timeout for manual PTZ sessions list (default is 15 seconds).
- Timeout for pause patrolling sessions list (default is 10 minutes).
- Timeout for reserved PTZ sessions list (default is 1 hour).
The settings apply for all PTZ cameras on your system.

You can change the timeouts individually for each camera.

In the Site Navigation pane, click Camera.
In the Overview pane, select the camera.
On the Presets tab, select the amount of time in the:
- Timeout for manual PTZ session list (default is 15 seconds).
- Timeout for pause patrolling session list (default is 10 minutes).
- Timeout for reserved PTZ session list (default is 1 hour).
The settings apply for this camera only.
