Positional Control of the Video Source

Pan/Tilt devices connected to the AXIS 230’s ports can be controlled directly from the web interface, or by third-party applications. When using such a device, Pan and Tilt bars are automatically displayed, as shown in the example below. Note that the selected Pan/Tilt driver determines the actual layout of the controls. Other functions, not shown here, may also be available.
