The PTZ (Pan-Tilt-Zoom) Camera Control allows easy access to all PTZ Camera
functions. Please refer to the Configuration | Cameras | PTZ to configure a PTZ Camera
for use.
Note: Not all PTZ cameras support all functions noted in this documentation, and in
some rare cases, the protocols supported will not completely match up to the protocols
supported by the PTZ device. Testing specific hardware for a given application is
warranted where PTZ functionality is required.

Focus: Adjusts the camera lens focus for the clearest image.
Iris: Opens and closes the camera iris, allowing more or less light into the lens.
Arrow Keys: Click and hold the mouse button on an individual arrow key to move the
camera to the corresponding direction and release the mouse to stop. Note that some
cameras do not support diagonal motion.
Click the PTZ Settings button and select additional PTZ features as follows.
Set Presets: Opens the Preset Programming screen (see Preset Programming below).
Set Speed: Adjusts the speeds of Pan, Tilt, Focus, Zoom, and Scan.
