Camera Control
This section explains how to control the Network Camera’s Pan/Tilt/Zoom operation.
There are two ways to enable the camera control function:
1. Mechanical: Connect the Network Camera to a PTZ driver or scanner via RS485 interface.
2. Digital: Control the e-PTZ operation. It allows users to quickly move the focus to a target
area for close-up viewing without moving the camera physically. Please refer to page 82 for
detailed instruction.
Mechanical PTZ Operation
If you select “Mechanical“, the RS485 Settings section will be displayed as shown below:
RS485 Settings
RS485 is an upper communication standard of RS422. Multi-point connection is possible.
Disable: Select this option to disable this function.
PTZ camera: Select this option to enable PTZ operation.
To utilize this feature, please connect the Network Camera to a PTZ driver or scanner via RS485
interface first. Then you can configure the PTZ driver and RS485 port with the follo wing settings.
TOSHIBA offers Pelco D protocol and others. If none of the above PTZ drivers is supported by your
PTZ scanner, please select Custom camera (scanner). Please refer to the user’s manual of your PTZ
scanner to determine the Camera ID, PTZ driver, and Port settings. The Camera ID is necessary to
control multiple cameras. If you click Save to enable this function, the camera control panel will be
displayed on the main page. Please refer to the illustration on page 79.
