Adjusting the Preview Frame Size
Drag the preview frame line to make the frame smaller,
and a magnified view of the image in the frame will be
shown in the image display area.
The preview frame turns blue when you drag it.
Note
The aspect ratio of the preview frame is always 16:9.
The Viewer PTZ uses digital zoom, so the higher the digital
zoom ratio, the lower the quality of the image becomes.
Moving the Preview Frame

Move by dragging
Click within the preview frame and drag it over the subject
that you want to see magnified.

Move using sliders

tilt and zoom the displayed video using sliders.
Note
After changing the preview frame, the image display area will
continue to display the cropped video corresponding to the
preview frame even after the Viewer PTZ panel is closed.
However, when you reconnect to Admin Viewer, the initial status
will be restored.
Exiting Viewer PTZ
Click the [Viewer PTZ] button again. The Viewer PTZ
panel closes and Viewer PTZ is exited.
Although clicking the close button of the Viewer PTZ panel
closes the PTZ panel, the Viewer PTZ will stay on.
