ZOOM MULTIPLIER ON, OFF Enables or disables attenuation of steering sensitivity relative to the focal
length of the Video in Control. At wide focal lengths, less steering input is
needed for turret movement, while narrow focal lengths need greater input for
steering movement.
ZOOM MULT. AZ. GAIN 0 to 100 Alters the sensitivity of azimuth (horizontal) steering to slow camera panning
as the degree of zoom increases.
ZOOM MULT. EL. GAIN 0 to 100 Alters the sensitivity of elevation (vertical) steering to slow camera tilting as
the degree of zoom increases.
AZIMUTH GAIN 0 to 100 Sets the responsiveness of horizontal steering movement.
ELEVATION GAIN 0 to 100 Sets the responsiveness of vertical steering movement.
AZIMUTH FWD -179° to +180° Sets the horizontal angle when the turret is in the Forward position. Customer
unique forward position is set to -90°.
ELEVATION FWD ±90° Sets the vertical angle when the turret is in the Forward position.
STEERING FLTR 0 to 100 Increases or decreases the responsiveness of steering controls. 75 is the
recommended setting.
