6.7Using the onscreen Compass

The Surveillix DVRs provide control for the PAN/TILT camera in two different ways.

1)Using the Graphical PTZ controller that appears when the PTZ button is pressed on the main screen.

2)Clicking on the video itself. This second option is a much more powerful way to control the Camera. (NOTE: The PTZ button on the main screen must still be selected to use this option.

Using the Onscreen Compass:

1)Press the PTZ Button on the main screen.

2)Control the PTZ by dragging the mouse on the screen in the desired direction. A green line will appear to show the direction the PTZ will move. The shorter the line the less the PTZ will move. The longer the line the more the PTZ will travel in the specified direction
