PTZ TYPES
The DVR System supports many PTZ devices, the user may select the type of PTZ.
Then the user chooses the speed of each connected PTZ under the Baud Rate column. Occasionally,
the PTZ camera ID number may differ from the number shown on the screen; should this occur, please
set the camera number to be the same as the PTZ ID to enable the user to control the PTZ camera.
Note: For specific details of device setup information, please refer to the PTZ product documentation.
Note: If the PTZ device Baud rate setting does not match the corresponding Baud rate setting of the
