AXIS 282/AXIS 282A - Pan Tilt Zoom

PTZ Controls

If the AXIS 282/AXIS 282A has been appropriately configured, the Live View page will

display the controls available for the installed Pan Tilt Zoom (PTZ) device. The

administrator can enable/disable the controls for specified users.

The exact controls shown depends on the make

and model of PTZ device. There may be

Focus and Iris bars available as well among others, but the most common controls are;

• the Pan bar - moves the camera to the ri

ght and left

• the Tilt bar - tips the camera up and down

• the Zoom bar - zooms the view in and out. Note that this is only available if the

camera is fitted with a zoom lens.

Clicking on the bars themselves or on the arrows

at the end of the bars will move the

camera to a new position. The type of movement and the location of this new position

depends on the type of PTZ driver.

When controlling the camera using a relative PTZ dri

ver (see the bars in the illustration

above) the new position will be relative to the previous position, e.g. left of, below, above,

and so on. Clicking the bar further from the center results in a larger movement.
