Very nice. Are there any analytic or automated features that use the PTZ (call presets\tours on motion\line crossing then auto track, etc?)

The integration/license issues are typically due to the camera not yet being tested or hard coded to require only one license. Most VMSes operate under the one IP = one license rule.
Interesting to see that you can’t trigger a PTZ preset from an analytic.

This is a very interesting model. I hope that the next generation will build on this platform and offer better WDR and codec support.

I know the DS-2CD6D54FWD-IZHS PanoVu camera counts as 4 cameras on Hikvision's NVRs. Does this model count as 4 cameras as well?

That's what I thought. I recommend a post update reflecting the 4 channel spaces taken up on HIK's NVRs. Thanks!
