Joystick for camera control

Jason Rossi

Hello,

What attributes does a joystick need to have to support zoom on a PTZ camera? I installed a gaming joystick but it only pans and tilts the camera. Twisting it does not trigger zoom.

Thanks.

Hi Jason,

What type of games controller are you using. I had some trouble with the buttons and zoom on the axis T8311 joystick. I used the calabration settings on the controller directly through Windows and it did solve it.

Regards,

Finny

Anil, I have no issues with ordering new and getting replacements with Cisco smartnet agreement.Cisco Joystick.jpeg

Joystick has pan tilt and zoom and the buttons are all programable for camera position presets.

Anil, VSOM doesn't support "Direct camera entry" However I use thrid party software solution that connects to all the media servers and proxy's which I'm able to open up muiltple window panes in IE which this software supports direct camera entry, review player, export, seek, speed control and operator history. Our daily operators don't use VSOM ever we use this thrid party software because it's more proactvie approach to surveillance. We are able to open muiltpe window panes and stretch, adjust ratio, minimize windows all while doing rapid reviews, ptz controls.
