ZOOM lever

This is used to adjust the lens zoom in the pan/tilt head system currently selected.

Depending on the direction in which the ZOOM lever is tilted, TELE (telephoto) or WIDE (wide angle) is set, and depending on the angle at which it is tilted, the zoom speed is adjusted.

FOCUS lever

This is used to adjust the lens zoom in the pan/tilt head system currently selected. FAR or NEAR is set by the direction in which the FOCUS lever is tilted, and the focus speed is adjusted by the angle to which it is tilted.

PAN/TILT lever

This is used to adjust the direction of the pan/tilt head in the pan/tilt head system currently selected.

When the PAN/TILT lever is panned in the L/R direction, the pan/tilt head direction changes to the left or right; when it is tilted in the UP/DOWN direction, it changes in the up or down direction.

The speed is adjusted by the angle to which the lever is tilted.
