hi there, is is there a way to limit the range of movement that the Pan can go to? Sometimes it tries to track motion and ends up staring directly at a wall and then can’t find its way back to facing “front”.

I don’t use motion tracking on my one Pan Cam, but I’m thinking you could set up Pan Scan with a single waypoint so it would always return to that one point.

I’ve done that (setting a single way point so it always resets) but what ends up happening is that I get: waypoint —> cold shoulder —> waypoint —> cold shoulder … it it always tries to track and ends up looking at a wall when it “anticipates” too far. Kinda defeats the purpose of the pan and mo…

Is there an update for this issue? My cam pan in my garage is fastened on the front wall facing the doors. It rotates facing the wall and stays there. I could move it to the ceiling upside down and pan around the entire garage but my main focus is activity in and out of the three overhead doors.

Need this for V3 pan. It gets stuck seeing a street light and all video becomes garbage. Thanks.
