Interface element Description
Settings pane To activate the control functions for digital PTZ and fisheye cameras, select the Enable check box. This feature is available even if the camera has no mechanical PTZ functionality.
For fisheye cameras, select a lens mode from the Fisheye mode list. If you select Immervision from the list, additional model and mounting options display.
Presets pane Creates and modifies presets for digital PTZ and fisheye cameras.
To create a preset, click New and enter a name in the Name field. Select Dewarp, Panorama, or Dual View. The Dewarp option can be used by any fisheye camera or lens. By default, the system assigns a name to a digital PTZ preset. The system can also assign the same name to a PTZ preset. To avoid having presets with the same name, ensure that you assign a unique name to all presets.

Pan/Tilt area Adjusts the direction of the preset location, and the camera direction speed.
Zoom area Adjusts the zoom and zoom speed of the camera.
