26 AXIS 231D+/232D+ - Live View Config
PTZ controls
• the Pan bar - moves the camera to the right and left
• the Tilt bar - tips the camera up and down
• the Zoom bar - zooms the view in and out
• the Focus bar - adjusts the focus
• the Iris bar - adjusts the brightness of the image
Clicking on the bars themselves or on the arrows at the end of the bars will move the
camera to a new position.
Each position on the bar (see right) represents a
defined position in the camera’s range of movement,
with the center of the bar representing the point midway between the two extremes of
movement.
Clicking a position directly on the bar moves the camera directly to the new position in
one smooth movement. Clicking on the arrows at the ends of a bar causes a stepped,
incremental change.
Click-in-image
The PTZ device can also be controlled using click-in-image movement, which can also be
of relative or absolute type.
Absolute click-in-image movement means that the camera view will center on the absolute
position that was clicked.
Relative click-in-image movement means that by clicking and holding the mouse button
down in the image, the PTZ device moves the camera in that direction, relative to the
center of the image. The further from the center the image is clicked, the greater the
movement.
You can also use Area Zoom to draw a box over a desired area to zoom in on. Using your
mouse click in the image where you want the center of the area you are are going to zoom
in on, and while holding down the left mouse button draw a square over the size of area
you would like to zoom in on.
Focus and Iris Controls
The Focus and Iris (image brightness) can be adjusted manually by using the control bars,
or they can be set for automatic adjustment, by clicking the Auto Iris and Auto Focus
buttons.
