8.4 Camera Control Tab

Some PTZ cameras can be operated remotely by VIGIL Server. To configure a camera for remote control, click on the
Camera Control tab. Select the camera type, the COM port and the address. These settings are determined by the cam-
era itself and the COM port on your VIGIL Server that the camera is connected.  For IP Network Cameras just select the
Camera Type. Other custom settings such as login prompts or camera labels may appear in the

highlighted

area

below.

Type

The type of PTZ camera that is connected to your VIGIL Server.

COM Port

The COM port on the VIGIL Server that the PTZ camera is connected to.

If a message titled CONFLICT appears below the camera type drop-down menu, then there is another cam-
era or data terminal that is set up to use that COM port or Address. Determine which device is connected
to the COM port and Address, and then modify the camera settings appropriately.

Address

The address of the camera when multiple cameras are attached via the COM port. See your camera’s user
guide for details.
