AXIS 213 PTZ
Control panel
Click the Ctrl panel button to display the control panel, which provides the
following settings:
• Auto focus: Automatically adjusts the image focus.
• Auto iris: Automatically adjusts the amount of light reaching the cam-
era and gives the best results, This also protects the image sensor from
strong light.
• Backlight comp: Enabling backlight compensation makes the subject
clearer if the image background is too bright, or if the subject is too
dark.
• IR cut filter - when set to off, the camera will be able to “see” 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.
• Shortcuts - These buttons can be configured to provide direct access to
various built-in auxiliary commands provided by the PTZ driver. See
Advanced - Ctrl Panel
on page 24.
Viewer controls
The default viewer to use for displaying moving images is selected from Setup > Live View Config >
Layout.
The AMC viewer toolbar is available in Microsoft Internet Explorer for Windows only. See AXIS Media
Control, on page 12 for more information. The AMC viewer toolbar displays the following buttons:
The Play/Stop buttons start and stop the live video stream.
The Snapshot button takes a snapshot of the currently displayed image. The Snapshot function and
the target directory for saving snapshots can be configured from AMC (AXIS Media Control), which
is available from the Windows Control Panel (Internet Explorer for Windows only).
Click the View Full Screen button and the video image will fill the entire screen area. No other
windows will be visible. Press Esc (Escape) on the computer keyboard to cancel full screen view.
These buttons change the navigation mode. Selecting Center will move the camera view to center
on the position that was clicked. Joystick mode will move the camera 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. These modes can also be selected by right-clicking in the image.
Click the Mute & Microphone buttons to switch the sound off and on. These are only available if
audio is enabled and the connection module with a loudspeaker/microphone is connected.
Use the sliders to control the volume on the speaker and microphone. The volume can
be set between 0 and 100.
When using Half-duplex mode this button toggles between allowing you to speak and listen. The
first icon indicates that you can talk and the speaker attached to the camera will play your voice.
The second indicates that you will hear audio from the camera, but no audio will be sent to web
clients. When in Simplex talk mode, the icon toggles between allowing you to speak and is dimmed
when you do not want other clients to receive any audio.
