PAN / TILT / ZOOM OVERVIEW
The PTZ controls within the DVR allow for powerful control over the cameras. This can be extremely beneficial by increasing the
usefulness of the recorded video. Using the PTZ controls you can create custom preset configurations that can continuously sweep
across large areas.
SETTING UP A PTZ CAMERA
Setting up a PTZ Camera is simple. The DVR comes preassembled with an internal PTZ adapter. The cabling may be run up to 4,000
ft using 22 Gauge Twisted Pair.
It is important to understand how the PTZ connects to the DVR. The DVR outputs an RS-232 signal and converts it to an RS-485
signal which is then sent to the PTZ camera.
Refer to the Connections section of this manual for information on connecting the PTZ camera to the DVR.
