AXIS 231D/232D - Using the Network Dome Camera
Joystick mode moves the camera in the direction of the mouse pointer. By clicking and
holding the mouse button down in the image, the PTZ device moves the camera in that
direction, relative to the center of the image. The further from the center the image is
clicked, the greater the movement. The camera stops moving when the button is released.
Focus and Iris Controls
The Focus and Iris (image brightness) can be adjusted manually by using the control bars,
or they can be set for automatic adjustment, by clicking the Auto Iris and Auto Focus
buttons.

information on setting up preset positions, please see
Dome Configuration, on page 26 and
the online help.
