Part II: Casino Operations · Surveillance & Security
Preset
Systems
A saved camera position (pan, tilt, and zoom coordinates) that a PTZ camera can instantly return to when commanded. Presets are fundamental to efficient casino surveillance operations, allowing operators to quickly focus on known critical positions such as individual gaming tables, cage windows, drop box locations, or entrance doors. Each preset is assigned a numeric identifier for rapid recall via the VMS interface.
In practice
Well-configured casino surveillance systems have hundreds of labeled presets enabling operators to navigate the entire property within seconds.
