ON maps to High—Changes the state of the port to high when you click the On button, and changes the state of the port to low when you click the Off button.

ON maps to Low—Changes the state of the port to low when you click the On button, and changes the state of the port to high when you click the Off button.

PTZ (RS-485) Window

The PTZ (RS-485) window allows you to enable pan, tilt, zoom (PTZ) functions for the IP camera. These functions require that the IP camera be installed with a motorized zoom/focus lens in a pan/tilt mount that supports the Pelco D protocol.

This window also provides options for configuring a patrol sequence, or sequence, for the IP camera. A sequence consists of up to 20 steps, each of which causes the camera to move to a designated position and remain in the position for 30 seconds.

To display the PTZ (RS-485) window, access the configuration windows as described in the “Performing the Initial Setup of the IP Camera” section on page 2-4, click Applications, then click PTZ (RS-485).
