About camera sequences

2025-11-13

A camera sequence is an entity that defines a list of cameras displayed sequentially in a rotating cycle within a single tile in Genetec™ Web App.

When displayed in Web App, the camera sequence can be paused.

The cameras composing the sequence can be fixed, PTZ enabled, or federated. Each camera is given a preset amount of display time. PTZ cameras can be configured to point to a preset position, run a pattern, or toggle an auxiliary switch.
