2 Basic Operation and Configuration
The following control panel buttons are enabled for pan/tilt cameras:
427-0030-00-28 Version 110
For a pan/tilt camera, when the mouse is positioned over the video window, some
controls appear in the lower left of the video image which allow the camera to be
panned left or right, or to be tilted up or down. To move the camera, click on one of the
arrows.
As with a fixed camera, the zoom in and out controls also appear. To zoom in, click on
the Zoom In control (+); to zoom out, click the Zoom Out control (-).
Start Scan List
This button will cause the camera to start the current scan list, which is a set of preset
locations (each preset has a specific azimuth, elevation and zoom setting). The presets
are programmed on the camera using the web interface or the FSM software.
Stop Scan List
This button causes the camera to stop (discontinue) the scan list.
Toggle Video Source
For a multi-sensor system with more than one video source (for example, a PT-Series
camera with a thermal IR camera and a daylight camera), this button causes the "active"
video source to be switched from one camera to the next. If the thermal IR camera is
active and the button is selected, it causes the daylight camera to become active, and vice
versa. This also causes the new active video source to be displayed in the Live Video
window.
Initialize Pan/Tilt
For a long-range multi-sensor system with a pan/tilt platform, this button causes the pan/tilt
to go through its startup initialization. For most pan/tilt security cameras, this button is not
needed since the pan/tilt will initialize automatically. For safety reasons, long-rage systems
with large camera lenses do not initialize automatically, so this button is used.
Pan/Tilt Home
This button causes the camera to go to the Home position. The Home position can be set
using the FSM software.
Autofocus
This button causes the active video source to perform an autofocus operation. If the active
source is a thermal camera with a fixed-focus lens, selecting this button causes an error
message to be displayed below the video window ("Function not available for this driver.").
