PTZ Control

To control the pan/tilt/zoom features of a PTZ camera without a joystick, move the mouse cursor over the camera’s video
window to display a green cross in the center of the window. When you move the cursor, arrows appear that show you
which way you can pan and tilt. You can zoom in and out using your mouse wheel.

Alternatively, you can click the PTZ Control Button to display the PTZ Control panel:

. Click the button to access

the PTZ/preset panel. This panel is available only when a PTZ-enabled camera is displayed in a video window.

The PTZ/preset panel contains the name of the camera being controlled in the title bar. You can click and drag on the title
bar of the panel to move it anywhere on your screen.


1. To move a camera to a preset, click the preset name.
2. To control pan and tilt, click the arrow buttons. Adjust the pan/tilt Speed slider if necessary.
3. To control zoom, click the Out or In button. Adjust the zoom Speed slider if necessary.


NOTE: Some cameras also provide iris and focus buttons, similar to the zoom buttons.

NOTE: You can alternatively control PTZ using the arrows, Page Up key, and Page Down key on your keyboard. The arrow
keys move your camera to the left, right, up, and down. Page Up zooms in, and Page Down zooms out.

NOTE: User-initiated PTZ commands have a higher priority than event linking PTZ commands, and both have a higher
priority than PTZ preset tours. If two or more of these types of PTZ commands occur simultaneously, the command with
the highest priority occurs and the other commands are ignored for the amount of the Resume Time configured in the
PTZ Settings window available through the camera’s setup page.
