The PTZ device tab is only available if you configure video encoder hardware devices on which you can use PTZ:
Connected cameras have Pan-tilt-zoom capabilities |
Select the check box if any of the cameras attached to the video encoder device is a PTZ camera. |
PTZ type on COM# |
If a PTZ camera is controlled through a COM port, select the relevant option. Options are device-specific, depending on which PTZ protocols the device uses. Select None if you have no PTZ cameras controlled through COM ports. |
The table in the lower half of the dialog contains a row for each video channel on the hardware device. First row from the top corresponds to video channel 1, second row from the top corresponds to video channel 2 and so on.

Port Address |
Available only if Moveable is selected in the Type column. Lets you specify port address of the camera. The port address will normally be 1. If using daisy chained PTZ cameras, the port address will identify each of them, and you should verify your settings with those recommended in the documentation for the camera. |
