16.4Controlling Camera Movement

General

Camera positioning is controlled via an eight-way joystick on the right-hand side of the keyboard. This joystick controls the camera pan/tilt (if equipped), moves the camera up, down, left, right, or diagonally. Moving the joystick up and to the right simultaneously moves the camera in a diagonal direction.

Rotate the joystick knob to control the zoom lens in or out. The direction of its response depends on the camera/lens model and certain system configuration set- tings that are determined at installation. Up to four pan/tilt/zoom commands may be sent to a remote camera site at a time (Example - Zoom In, Focus Far, Pan Left, and Tilt Down). All three (3) zoom lens functions can also be sent simultaneously (Example - Zoom Out, Focus Near, Iris Open).

Focus and Iris Lens Control

The lens control buttons are on the right side of the keyboard. The camera's zoom lens (if equipped) is controlled to focus near or far, and open or close the iris (if the lens supports manual iris operation).

Lock or Unlock Control of a Camera

When using IntuiKey keyboards, press [Device Lockout], located on the main Alle- giant menu screen to enter a menu screen for these options. With the LTC 8555 Series keyboards, press [Lock], then [ON] to lock a camera. To unlock a camera, press [OFF]. If the camera to be locked is not the one currently being viewed, enter the camera number via the numeric keyboard (but do not press [Enter]) before pressing [Lock].

If the Status option is enabled, the section of the onscreen overlay between the cam- era number and the time shows RL, indicating the camera is locked. Activating a camera lock immediately prevents other operators (unless they have a higher prior- ity) from controlling the locked pan/tilt/zoom camera. Remember to unlock the camera when finished so other operators can access it.
