AXIS 214 PTZ - Accessing the camera
Pan/Tilt/Zoom controls
The Live View page also displays the Pan/Tilt/Zoom controls.
These are enabled/disabled for specified users by the administrator under
System Options > Security > Users > User List.
The Pan Tilt and Zoom bars control their respective functions in two different
ways. Clicking anywhere on the bar's gradient allows for a 'smooth'
adjustment of the camera's position, whilst clicking on the arrows at the two
ends of the bar cause a stepped, incremental change.
Note: Setting the iris and focus manually will disable Auto iris/Auto focus.
The control panel
Click the Ctrl panel button to display the control panel, where the
following settings are available:
• Auto focus: Automatically adjusts the image focus.
• Auto iris: Automatically adjusts the amount of light reach-
ing the camera 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.
• Navigation mode: “Center” will move the camera view to
center on the position that was clicked.
“Joystick” moves the camera in the direction indicated by
a mouse click, relative to the center of the image. The fur
-
ther from the center the image is clicked, the greater the movement.
• 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. Set to Auto to automatically turn the
filter off when the available visible light falls below the minimum requirement.
