Abstract
A method is provided for switching operation of a monitoring system from a first monitoring mode to a second monitoring mode. An overview image is presented when the monitoring system is in a first monitoring mode. A direction signal is received from a control means when the monitoring system is in the first monitoring mode. A camera is directed in an absolute direction indicated by the direction signal in accordance with a first camera control scheme. The monitoring system enters into a second monitoring mode in response to receiving the direction signal presenting a detailed image view captured by the camera when directed in the direction indicated by the direction signal. When in the second monitoring mode, a camera head of the camera is moved in response to control signals from the control means in accordance with a second control scheme.
