Start Patrol on Power Restore - Hikvision PTZ

[Mattsellors]

Is there anyway to configure a Hikvision PTZ to start its pre-configured patrol path when power is switched on, say after a power outage? Thanks

Is it connected via POE? or directly to the NVR?

It is connected to DVR

Direct to NVR I don’t think there’s a way to auto start it - but if you connect the camera to a POE switch that then connects to the NVR - you can access the cameras direct control via web browser. Set your patrol in the camera rather than the NVR and then set the schedule to do what you want. That way on power up after a cut the camera will reboot and go straight into it’s programmed schedule.
