Finding the camera's IP Address

The camera will automatically acquire an IP address when connected to the network. If the network cannot assign an IP address, the camera will default to "192.168.100.88". If you don't know the camera IP, please do one of the following:

  • Method 1: Use a Internet browser and type in "http://ptzoptics.local/" to reach the camera's web interface. From there, the Network Settings page will allow you to view the camera's network settings.
    • Method 2: Use the IR remote shortcut [*] > [#] > [4] to display the camera's IP address.

Once you find the camera you wish to adjust, right click the corresponding IP address to reveal the control menu. From here, select the corresponding tab for the way you want to adjust your camera.

Discovering your Network Info

To discover your IP address range/scheme, Subnet Mask, Gateway, & First DNS, follow the instructions below for Windows or Mac OS. You may need to talk with your IT department to obtain this information.

• Image is shaky or vibrating

  1. Check whether the camera is mounted solidly or sitting on a steady horizontal and level surface.
  2. Check the building and any supporting furniture for vibration. Ceiling mounts are often affected by building vibration more than wall mounts.
  3. Any external vibration that is affecting the camera will be more apparent when zoomed in.

• Abnormal display of image

  1. Check the resolution dial on the back of the camera. Verify that the resolution and refresh rate is supported by your destination device.
  2. If using SDI, check that the SDI level is set to the desired level.

• Image settings are changing on their own

  1. The cameras have a feature called "Preset 2.0" where many of the Exposure, White Balance, and Image settings are saved with each preset. When a preset is called, the saved Exposure, White Balance, and Image settings are then loaded.

Control

- IR remote controller does not control the camera

  1. Does one of the four "Camera Select" buttons at the top of the remote light up when you press any of the buttons?

- If not, change the batteries in the remote.

  1. Check that the remote and camera are on the same IR channel. The "Camera Select" buttons will light up with the selected IR channel when a button is pressed. You can change the camera's IR channel by accessing the System Settings of the web interface.

  2. Try removing other sources of IR interface (sunlight, fluorescent lighting, etc.)

- Serial communication does not control the camera

  1. Verify that the RS232 / RS485 cable is connected correctly and using the proper pinout. Verify the communication settings of the control software / device (e.g. joystick).

  2. Verify that the communication port on the controlling device is active (e.g. Com port on 3. PC).

  3. Verify that the communication settings in the camera's OSD Menu match the communication settings of the controlling software / device.

• IP communication does not control the camera

  1. Verify that the camera and controlling device are on the same LAN with unique IP addresses.

  2. Verify that the controlling device is using the appropriate control port for the protocol. The default control ports are as follows: TCP 5678, UDP 1259, Sony UDP: 52381, NDI: 5961
