Controlling Cameras
2
Following the guide, control the camera, using the front panel buttons and 
dials.
Storing a Camera Preset
The camera preset function allows you to save the state of the camera supporting 
VISCA protocol to one of the numeric buttons on the front panel. Then by 
pressing the numeric button, you can automatically set the camera to the saved 
state.
For example, during a lecture relay, you can store settings for standard shots, 
such as a speaker close-up, speaker full-body shot, guest panel, or audience view, 
simplifying the work of switching among these views.
In the camera preset, you can save the pan, tilt, zoom, and focus settings, the 
aperture (iris) status, the white balance adjustment, the control mode (auto/
manual, etc.).
If the camera you are using is an EVI-D100/EVI-D100P, set the camera BACK 
UP switch to the ON position before storing.
