How to Zoom the Camera In or Out 
Zooming can be done continuously or by one step (one click) at a time. 
To zoom continuously, do the following: 
1.  On Zoom Control, select the Speed, wherein the bigger the number, the faster is the 
zooming speed. 
2.  Click and hold the left mouse button on zoom in    or zoom out  . When the 
mouse button is released, zooming stops. 
To zoom by step zooming, do the following: 
1.  On Zoom Control, enter the desired step size. Size is the amount of zoom scale taken in 
each step. 
2.  Click the left mouse button on zoom in    or zoom out  . One zoom step is 
taken for each click. 
For PTZ camera models, users can enable the Digital Zoom feature. When enabled, once the 
optical zoom reached its maximum, the camera continues to zoom in the image using digital 
zoom. 
TIP: While the PTZ Control Panel is open, instead of using      buttons, move the 
mouse cursor over the Live View, the mouse cursor will turn into zoom in/out (e.g.    /    ). 
Click or drag the mouse to zoom in/out the camera view. Or, if in Mouse mode, draw a box on the 
area you want to zoom in to. 
For PTZ cameras with zoom ratio of 18x and above, like the I9x models, users can set the Max. 
Zoom Ratio on the user interface. Setting the maximum zoom ratio helps to ensure that focus is 
kept all throughout the zoom in/out process. For other cameras with optical zoom lens, setting the 
maximum zoom ratio can be done through the URL command.   
Available only on 
I9x PTZ cameras
