This section explains how to control the Network Camera’s Pan/Tilt/Zoom operation. 

There are two ways to enable the camera control function:

1. Mechanical: Connect the Network Camera to a PTZ driver or scanner via RS485 interface.

2. Digital: Control the e-PTZ operation. It allows users to quickly move the focus to a target 

area for close-up viewing without physically moving the camera. Please refer to page 83 for 

detailed instruction.      

If you select “Mechanical“, the RS485 Settings section will be displayed as shown below:

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 serial 

interface first. Then you can configure the PTZ driver and RS485 port with the following settings.

VIVOTEK offers five PTZ drivers: DynaDome/SmartDOME, Lilin PIH-7x00, Pelco D, Pelco P, and 

Samsung Scc643 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.
