AXIS 213 PTZ 9

Control panel

Click the Ctrl panel button to display the control panel, which provides the following settings:

•Auto focus: Automatically adjusts the image focus.

•Auto iris: Automatically adjusts the amount of light reaching the cam- era and gives the best results, This also protects the image sensor from strong light.

•Backlight comp: Enabling backlight compensation makes the subject clearer if the image background is too bright, or if the subject is too dark.

•IR cut filter - when set to off, the camera will be able to “see” infrared light, e.g. at night, thus making the image clearer. The image is shown in black & white when the IR cut filter is off.

•Shortcuts - These buttons can be configured to provide direct access to various built-in auxiliary commands provided by the PTZ driver. See Advanced - Ctrl Panel on page 24.

Viewer controls

The default viewer to use for displaying moving images is selected from Setup > Live View Config > Layout.

The AMC viewer toolbar is available in Microsoft Internet Explorer for Windows only. See AXIS Media Control, on page 12 for more information. The AMC viewer toolbar displays the following buttons:

The Play/Stop buttons start and stop the live video stream.

The Snapshot button takes a snapshot of the currently displayed image. The Snapshot function and the target directory for saving snapshots can be configured from AMC (AXIS Media Control), which is available from the Windows Control Panel (Internet Explorer for Windows only).

Click the View Full Screen button and the video image will fill the entire screen area. No other windows will be visible. Press Esc (Escape) on the computer keyboard to cancel full screen view.

These buttons change the navigation mode. Selecting Center will move the camera view to center on the position that was clicked. Joystick mode will move the camera in the direction indicated by a mouse click, relative to the center of the image. The further from the center the image is clicked, the greater the movement. These modes can also be selected by right-clicking in the image.

Click the Mute & Microphone buttons to switch the sound off and on. These are only available if audio is enabled and the connection module with a loudspeaker/microphone is connected.

Use the sliders to control the volume on the speaker and microphone. The volume can be set between 0 and 100.

When using Half-duplexmode this button toggles between allowing you to speak and listen. The first icon indicates that you can talk and the speaker attached to the camera will play your voice. The second indicates that you will hear audio from the camera, but no audio will be sent to web clients. When in Simplex talk mode, the icon toggles between allowing you to speak and is dimmed when you do not want other clients to receive any audio.
