CONTROLLING THE P.T.Z. CAMERA

Once the P.T.Z. Control Panel is open, you can direct the camera by selecting its channel and 
using the directional controls. Click and hold to move the camera in the desired direction. 

You can adjust the speed of movement using the slider. The 

Iris

Focus

 and 

Zoom

 controls 

are paired to either side and allow you to adjust the image by increasing or decreasing their 
respective functions. Some cameras feature automatic iris and focus controls and those 
buttons will not affect that camera. Similarly, the 

Wiper

 and 

Light

 buttons will not work on 

cameras without those features.

If the P.T.Z. camera will only be manually controlled, then you may wish to change the 
recording mode and schedule for manual recording only as every time the camera moves, the 
DVR will treat that as motion detection.

CONFIGURING POINTS AND CRUISES

In addition to being manually controlled, you can configure your camera to follow a set path, 
pointing from location to location and repeating. In this mode, you should change your alarm 
settings, if not your recording mode and schedule. Each time the camera moves, it will trigger 
a motion detection event. It is recommended that you set the channel to record continuously 
and turn off any alarm activity associated with that channel.
