Milestone XProtect ® Express 1.1Administrator's ManualFisheyeWhen you configure video and recording (see "About video and recording configuration" on page 75) for specificcameras, fisheye properties may be available. Fisheye is a technology that allows viewing of 360-degreepanoramic video through an advanced lens.You will not see the fisheye properties until certain conditions are met: The camera must be either a dedicatedfisheye camera or be equipped with a special fisheye lens. A special fisheye license key is also required; youenter the key when you configure the hardware device (see "Configure hardware devices" on page 72) to whichthe fisheye camera is attached.You configure the camera's fisheye functionality by adjusting its fisheye view field, indicated by a green circle inthe fisheye view, until the circle encloses the actual image area of the fisheye lens. Your settings are then used bythe fisheye technology for converting the circular fisheye view into a flattened rectangular view.NameCeiling mountResolutionX radiusDescriptionMilestone Recording ServerserviceX centerY centerEnable previewSet as HomeIf the camera is mounted on a ceiling, you can adjust properties to reflectthis by selecting the check box.Resolution values are automatically displayed above the fisheye image.When using fisheye, resolution will automatically be set to the highestpossible value.Controls the horizontal (X) radius of the green circle. Move the slider to theleft for a narrower circle, or to the right for a wider circle. Alternatively,specify a value between 0 and 800 in the field next to the slider. 0corresponds to the slider's leftmost position, 800 corresponds to the slider'srightmost position.A vital part of the surveillance system. Video streams are only transferredto XProtect Express while the Recording Server service is running.Controls the horizontal (X) position of the green circle. Move the slider tothe left or right as required. Alternatively, specify a value between 0 and800 in the field next to the slider.Controls the vertical (Y) position of the green circle. Move the slider to theleft in order to move the circle up, or to the right in order to move the circledown. Alternatively, specify a value between 0 and 800 in the field next tothe slider.Toggle between viewing the circular fisheye view and the flattenedrectangular view resulting from your settings. When you preview theflattened view, the following navigation buttons become available formoving around within the flattened view.Use after navigating to a suitable viewpoint using the navigation buttons.Sets the current viewpoint as home position (that is default position), sothat when client users viewing the camera click their clients' Home button,their view of the camera changes to that position.www.milestonesys.com 104 Advanced configuration

PTZ presetpositions can be used for making the PTZ camera automatically go to a particular position when particular eventsoccur, and when setting up PTZ patrolling profiles. Preset positions also become selectable in clients, allowingusers with required rights (see "Configure user and group rights" on page 140) to move the PTZ camera betweenpreset positions.Names of preset positions must contain only the characters A-Z, a-z and the digits 0-9. If you import presetpositions from cameras (see the following), verify that their names do not contain other characters. If they do,change the preset position names before you import them.Restart services (see "Start and stop services" on page 144) after having made changes to PTZ settings.Cameras that do not support multiple simultaneous video streams cannot connect to the surveillance server andthe Management Application at the same time. Therefore, we recommended stopping (see "Start and stopservices" on page 144) the Recording Server service when configuring such devices for motion detection andPTZ.
