Axis Communications 230 MPEG-2 - Manual (Page 17)

AXIS 230 Operating the AXIS 230 17
Positional Control of the Video Source
Pan/Tilt devices connected to the AXIS 230’s ports can be controlled directly from the web
interface, or by third-party applications. When using such a device, Pan and Tilt bars are
automatically displayed, as shown in the example below. Note that the selected Pan/Tilt
driver determines the actual layout of the controls. Other functions, not shown here, may
also be available.
Notes: •Pan/Tilt controls can be disabled in the Live View layout settings and might not be available in the
user interface.
•Clicking anywhere on a bar’s gradient allows for a “smooth” adjustment; whereas clicking on the
left or right arrows causes a stepped incremental change.
