14. Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ) Operation 

(Requires technical expertise for initial setup) 

The DVR can control all “speed dome” operations for cameras that are connected to the DVR. 

To control the speed dome, ensure that all the lines are properly connected and that the right protocol, 

baud rate, and speed dome’s address for each speed dome camera has been input.    Refer to Protocol 

Set in the SYSTEM SETUP section of this manual.    For example, if the first speed dome camera is 

connected to channel one, you should make sure that the baud rate, the protocol, and speed dome’s 

address  is  the  same  as  that  of  the  speed  dome  camera  connected  to  that  channel.  Also  refer  to  the 

setup and operations manual for the speed dome cameras. 

PTZ  can only  be  operated  by  the  remote  control.    Press  the PTZ  button  on  the  remote  control  and 

“PTZ” will be displayed on the screen.    Select 1 to 16 to choose the PTZ channel and the channel 

number will be displayed besides “PTZ”.    The PTZ Screen for CH01 is illustrated below:
