Setting Up PTZ 180° Camera Linkage
Description
This tutorial will go over how to set up 180° Camera Linkage for Luminys PTZ cameras. This function allows PTZ cameras with 180° panoramic lenses to trigger VCA rules via the static 180° lens, and track the target with the PTZ. This is a more reliable way to track targets without creating multiple presets and blind spots.
Please note that enabling the 180° Camera Linkage will disable all VCA functionality on the PTZ channel.
Prerequisites
- P54-4DA25 or similar camera (PTZ with built in 180° camera)
- Access to PTZ camera's WebUI
Step by Step Instructions
1. Start by logging in to the cameras WebUI, and selecting Smart Analysis at the top. Select the 180° Camera Linkage option on on the left and enable PTZ Camera Linkage. You may want to change the tracking duration or the target ratio. By default the PTZ will zoom to a 40% ratio (target to frame), but can be increased or decreased as needed. Once your settings are configured, click Apply.
Note: It is important we enable the linkage before creating the VCA rule, as enabling this function will remove any existing VCA rules.
2. Next, select Intelligent Mode on the left, enable VCA for the 180° camera, and click Next.
3. Click the + icon and select the type of VCA rule you want to create. For the purpose of this guide, we are going to use Intrusion.
4. Configure your VCA rule as needed and click Apply to save it.
5. Now that the rule is created and 180° Camera Linkage is enabled, the camera will use LumiTracking on the PTZ channel to track targets detected on the 180° channel, as shown in the example below.
