Triplett CamView PTZ – PN: 8000 - Manual (Page 33)

3.7. Capturing PTZ protocol
The CamView can view PTZ codes using
its ‘Data monitor’ mode. This allows the
user to verify that the PTZ control wires
have a PTZ signal present. This is useful to
determine if a non-responsive PTZ camera
is actually receiving a PTZ control signal.
The actual codes are generally meaningless
to the average user. There is little chance of
decoding their meaning without in-depth knowledge of the PTZ coding scheme.
What’s important is that the PTZ codes are present in the PTZ control wires
connected to a PTZ camera.
