PTZ control
To control a PTZ camera through a third-party device,
you need to set
Port Mode
to
PTZ Control
.
By sending PELCO-D compliant PTZ control commands
through the RS485 port, you can control the PTZ camera
without using the PTZ control panel.
1.
Click Setup > System > Ports & Devices, and then click
the Serial Port tab.
2.
Select PTZ Control from the Port Mode drop-down list.
The following table describes some major parameters.
a.
PTZ Protocol
i.
Set the PTZ protocol that the channel
supports.
1.
You can set this parameter only
when
Port Mode
is set to
PTZ
Control
.
2.
When
PTZ Protocol
is set to
INTERNAL-PTZ
, the camera can connect to the external PTZ
without using the serial port (serial port parameters are grayed out). In this case, you
only need to connect the zoom and focus interfaces of the camera to the lens, and then
you can operate the PTZ like an internal PTZ.
b.
PTZ Mode
i.
Built-in PTZ Priority: When this option is selected, the camera first tries to control the PTZ (for
example, to zoom or focus) by itself instead of through the external PTZ. For operations that
the camera cannot accomplish by itself, the camera uses the external PTZ.
ii.
External PTZ Priority: The camera first tries to control the PTZ through the PTZ connected
through the serial port.
1.
You can set this parameter only when
Port Mode
is set to
PTZ Control
.
2.
When
INTERNAL-PTZ
is selected, this parameter is always set to
Built-in PTZ Priority
,
and it is unnecessary to connect the camera to an external PTZ through the serial port.
Control through the external PTZ is not effective even when the camera has been
connected to an external PTZ.
3.
Set this parameter as required. Make sure PTZ control related interfaces are correctly
connected.
c.
Address Code
i.
Set the address code for the PTZ.
1.
You can set this parameter only when
Port Mode
is set to
PTZ Control
and
PTZ
Protocol
is not set to
INTERNAL-PTZ.
d.

transmission with the third-party device.
1.
Click

tab.
2.
Select
Trans-Channel
from the
Port Mode
drop-
down list.
