Camera Control
This section explains how to control the Network Camera’s Pan/Tilt/Zoom operation by
connecting to a PTZ driver or scanner via RS485 interface.
RS485 Settings
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 following settings.
LevelOne offers three PTZ drivers: DynaDome/SmartDOME, Lilin PIH-7x00, and Pelco D protocol.
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 64.
Transparent HTTP Tunnel: If you want to use your own RS-485 device, you can use UART commands to
build a Transparent HTTP Tunnel. The UART commands will be sent through HTTP tunnel established
between the RS-485 device and the linked camera. For detailed application notes, please refer to URL
Commands on page 96 or http://www.LevelOne.com/downloadfiles/faq/videoserver/UART_HTTP_
Tunnel.pdf.
