Memo :

●If you see a set of crosshairs when placing your mouse pointer over the image from a PTZ camera, then you are able to control the orientation of the camera using point-and-click control on the image screen. Control of the camera on the image screen is not possible if the mouse pointer does not change to the cross shape pointer. The mouse pointer may not change to the cross- shape pointer depending on the type of the PTZ camera. Control of the PTZ camera may not be possible for some PTZ cameras even though the mouse pointer changes to the cross-shape pointer. In this case, use the PTZ navigation button of the [PTZ Control] section to control the PTZ camera.

●The mouse pointer does not change to the cross shape pointer for analog cameras that are connected to the network encoder (IP video server) (e.g. VN-E4).

●If your mouse is equipped with a scroll wheel, you can use it to control the zoom in and out function on the PTZ camera.

●When using electronic zoom feature on VN-C625U/VN-C655U, zooming will stop at the boundary between optical zoom and electronic zoom. To continue zooming, perform zoom operation again.
