Note:

These controls are only displayed when a camera that has been conﬁ gured (on the image

server) for telemetry control.

The image servers support a number of PTZ manufacturer protocols ensuring the system can be easily

integrated into any application. It is possible to select and control any PTZ / Dome camera connected to an

image server from within NetVu Observer. It is also possible to send ‘star commands’ directly via this console

using the numeric keypad. Note you will need to refer to the manufacturers documentation to ensure the PTZ /

Dome camera supports these functions. The PTZ controls supported by NetVu Observer are,:
