This window allows for customization of each of the joystick buttons.
Use the drop-down menus to assign actions to each button. 

To determine which button is which, go into the Windows Control Panel
and select Game Controllers, where the device will be listed. Select it
and click Properties. Click any button on the joystick and the button
number will be highlighted in the resulting window.

Presets

Presets are fixed locations that the camera can save and go to. The presets are stored within the
camera for hard-wired PTZ cameras.

To save a preset, move the camera to the desired preset location, select the preset
number from the drop-down menu and click Save. This will overwrite any presets pre-
viously saved to that number.

To move the camera to an existing preset, select a preset from the drop-down menu
and click Goto, or click the button with the preset number on it.

Patterns

Control the saved pattern of movement for the selected camera. Patterns are stored within the camera.

Select a pattern from the drop-down menu and click Record. Use the other control but-
tons to move the camera in the desired pattern. Once finished, click Stop. This will
overwrite the existing saved pattern.  Select a pattern from the drop-down menu and
click Run to begin the saved pattern.

Tours

A tour is a cycle of camera presets. Tour settings are stored within VIGIL Server.

Click Settings to open the Tour Settings window, where presets are added and set to
run for a specified number of seconds before going to the next preset.

Click Run to activate the tour.  The camera will cycle through the presets in the Live
Viewer window.  The tour can be ended by moving the camera or pressing Stop.

Presets must be configured before a tour can be run.
