AXIS 213 - Accessing the camera
Pan/Tilt/Zoom Control Queue
Only one user can use the Pan/Tilt/Zoom controls at any time. So when multiple
clients access the AXIS 213’s Live View page, it is necessary to queue the users and
restrict the length of time they are in control of the Pan/Tilt/Zoom controls. Use the
buttons to request or release control of the Pan/Tilt/Zoom controls.
The Pan/Tilt/Zoom Control Queue is set up by the administrator under
PTZ Configuration > Control Queue.
Control Panel
Click the Ctrl panel button to display the control panel
where the following settings are available:
Auto focus - the AXIS 213 can be set to automati-
cally adjust the image focus.
Auto iris - the iris can automatically adjust the
amount of light reaching the camera and give the
best results, as well as protecting the image sensor
from strong light.
Backlight compensation makes the subject appear
clearer against e.g. a bright background.
Navigation mode:
Select Center and the camera view will center on
the position that was clicked.
Select Joystick and the camera will move in the direction indicated by a
mouse click, relative to the center of the image. The further from the center
the image is clicked, the greater the movement.
IR light - use the IR light on the front of the camera to enable night vision.
IR cut filter - when set to off, the camera will be able to ‘see' the infrared
light, e.g. at night, thus making the image clearer. The image is shown in
black & white when the IR cut filter is off.
