Pan/Tilt Driver and Video Camera ID Setup
The (Pan Tilt) icon is displayed when a Pan/Tilt
device is selected for the serial port usage. If the “Pan
Tilt” icon is not displayed next to the icon of the
applicable serial port, refer to “Serial Port Settings” on
page 18 to reset the serial port usage.
Up to seven VISCA-compliant video cameras can be
connected by daisy chaining to the two serial ports on
the video network station, with pan/tilt/zoom
controlled by the ID number of each video camera.
The “Pan Tilt” icon is used to set the driver, video
camera ID number and video camera preset position
for each connected device.
The following example describes connection of an
EVI-D30/D31/G20/G21.
