What is the Dome Configuration Utility?

The Dome Configuration Utility provides a means to setting features for your camera dome

display, privacy zones, direction indicators and password protection. Some items supplement
similar features that may be available through your controller.

press and hold a Focus button (near or far), then press Zoom Out.
