CONTROLLING A PTZ CAMERA

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

The first method is to use the Graphical PTZ Controller that appears when the PTZ Button is clicked on the main screen.

The second method is to use the mouse to control the camera directly from the live video display.

Using the Graphical PTZ Controller

To select a new camera, click the video display of a different camera on the Main Screen Display.

NOTE: Eight directions are available only for select protocols. Only four of the PTZ Control buttons work for all protocols (UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT).
