This value represents the number of minutes for which a temporary profile selection will

remain in effect. A temporary profile selection is made by clicking one of the buttons 1-7 or ~

at the top of Blue Iris window. The timer is in effect when you see the stopwatch icon to the

Joystick

This options page allows you to enable and configure a DirectInput compatible joystick for

camera PTZ control.

If a DirectInput compatible joystick is found attached to your PC, it will be initialized and its

name will be displayed. If you connect or disconnect a joystick, use the Refresh button to

update the status display.

Use the Control Panel button to open the DirectInput driver's calibration tool. You must

perform a joystick calibration after connecting it for the first time. This allows software to

recognize the proper center position and maximum travel of the various axes.

In addition to up, down, left and right, many joysticks offer a third axis to be used for zoom--

possibly implemented by twisting the control stick. Joysticks designed for applications such as

this will also offer an array of buttons. Blue Iris uses these buttons to call preset positions.
