Controls
Panel Shortcut Command Buttons
can be configured to provide direct access to commands issued via the VAPIX® Application
Programming Interface. The buttons will be displayed in the PTZ control panel, which is available in the Live View page through
the
Ctrl panel
button, see
page 11
.
Note
Disabling PTZ controls will not affect preset positions. For example, if the tilt control is disabled, the product can still move to
preset positions that require a tilt movement.
Control Queue
The administrator can set up a queue for PTZ controllers from
PTZ > Control Queue
. Once set up, the
PTZ Control Queue
buttons
appear in the Live View page offering one viewer exclusive control for a limited period of time. Other users will be placed in queue.
A user who belongs to a group (see
Users, on page 34
) with a higher PTZ priority can go before other users in the queue and
take control of the product. The order of priority is as follows:
1.
Administrator
— An administrator takes over PTZ control regardless of who is first in queue. The administrator will be
removed from the queue 60 seconds after the last PTZ control command.
2.
Event
— The Axis product can be configured to go to a preset position when triggered by an alarm (see
Events, on page 29
).
The event will immediately be placed first in the queue except when an administrator is in control.
3.
Operator
— Same as administrator but with lower priority
4.
Viewer
— Multiple viewers must wait for their turn. The viewer has 60 seconds PTZ control before control is passed
on to the next viewer in queue.
Note
• The administrator can enable and disable PTZ controls for selected users.
• To identify different users in the viewer group, cookies must be enabled on the client.
