PTZ Features
- Camera Control

Auto-Tracking with Extended Options: This feature lets the camera automatically follow a moving person in its view. The extended options include selecting where the camera will pick up the next target and selecting between multiple targets on the fly.

Video Templates: The PTZOptics team is making it easy to select the best performance IP video streams for your project by providing easily selectable video templates for NDI, Dante, and IP streaming.

White Balance Modes: This feature helps in adjusting the color balance in your images, specifically focusing on the color white. Different lighting conditions can change the color of white, which may alter other colors in the image. White balance modes can help correct for different types of light like sunlight, shade, tungsten, fluorescent, etc. so that the white in your image remains true and other colors are displayed correctly.

Exposure Modes: This refers to the different methods the camera uses to decide the correct combination of aperture, shutter speed, and ISO to achieve the perfect exposure. Different modes could include manual (where you control everything), auto (the camera decides), or other modes that allow control over one aspect (like shutter priority, where you control the shutter speed and the camera adjusts the other settings)
• Additional Updates

On-Camera Firmware Updates: This feature allows you to update the camera's firmware directly from the camera itself. Firmware is the low-level software that controls the hardware of your camera. Being able to update it directly on the camera simplifies the process and ensures you can easily have the latest features and bug fixes.

Profiles: PTZOptics cameras now feature multiple profiles that allow you to quickly set up your camera for different shooting situations. For example, you might have one profile for indoor shooting, another for outdoor shooting, and another for low light situations. Each profile would have different settings for things like white balance, exposure, frame rate, etc.
- Networking

Simple Network Discovery: This is a feature that allows the camera to be easily discovered and connected to a network. PTZOptics cameras can now be found by simply entering http://ptzoptics.local/ into any web-browser. The IP address can then easily be changed through the user interface.

Multicast/Unicast: This feature refers to the method of data transmission over a network. In multicast, data is sent to multiple recipients at the same time. In unicast, data is sent from one sender to one receiver. Depending on your network setup and the requirements of your video stream, you might want to use one or the other.

Dante AV-H™
When a Dante-enabled device is connected to an Dante enabled network, it will automatically:
- Configure it's IP address (Network must have a DHCP server)
- Enable automatic discovery, advertising the Device Name, Channel Names, Number of Channels, Sample Rates, and Bit Depths to other Dante devices and software, such as Dante Controller.
Within seconds, this information can be seen via Dante Controller, Dante devices can then confirm compatibility with other devices and you can choose how you would like to configure channels and route media.
Additional information can be found here: https://www.audinate.com/meet-dante
More Than Just Video
The PTZOptics Link 4K camera can send video over the network via Dante AV-H, and it can also send and receive audio. The PTZOptics Link 4K camera features a 3.5mm audio input and output that can be used with Dante AV-H. The 3.5mm audio input can be used to take analog audio and send two channels of Dante audio out over the network (left and right channel audio). The 3.5mm audio output can be used to output audio from another Dante source on the network.

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. The username and password are both "admin" by default. The Network Settings page will allow you to make adjustments to the camera's network settings.
Method 2: Use the IR remote shortcut [*] > [#] > [4] to display the camera's IP address.
Note: If you are setting up multiple cameras, it's recommended to do so one at a time. Assign a unique Device ID to each camera from the Device Info page. This will allow you to reach each camera's web interface without needing to memorize an IP address.
For example, "http://camera1.local/" and "http://camera2.local/".
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.
Windows
- Open the Start menu and type "CMD" into the search bar.
- Once the Command Prompt is open, type in "ipconfig" and press the Enter key.
- Scroll down to the section titled "Ethernet adapter Ethernet" or "Ethernet adapter Wireless Network Connection".
- Locate the "IPv4 Address" in that section. This is your computers local IP address.
- In the example above, the PC's local address is "192.168.15.117", making the network range "192.168.15".

Setting & Calling Presets
The PTZOptics Move 4K, the Move SE, and the Link 4K cameras all utilize the same newly upgraded camera presets system, and in this section, we will explain how to get the most out of presets and how to properly use them.
If you have already attempted setting presets and noticed the image settings changing when moving the camera or switching between presets, please read through the instructions below.
- Lighting: Before adjusting the camera's settings and saving presets, it is extremely important that you are satisfied with the lighting in the area you plan to operate the camera. (Tip: The easiest lighting to work with, is often referred to as "flat lighting", meaning the lighting is as evenly dispersed as possible throughout the scene.)
- Web UI: Once you have determined that the lighting setup is complete, type the camera's IP address into your web browser to open up the camera's web UI. If you are not familiar with how to do this, please see the Web UI section on page 29.
- Default: We recommend setting all of the camera's image settings, exposure settings, color settings, and focus settings to default before setting up presets. The default settings are shown on page 30 and page 31.
(Note: When you save a preset, not only are you saving the position the camera is in, but you are also saving all the image settings it had at that exact time. When panning, tilting, and zooming the camera, all image settings will stay set to their last applied/saved values.)
-
Preset Zero: With all the image settings defaulted, the first preset you need to establish is Preset Zero. This preset, will essentially serve as your baseline reference point. Follow the steps below to establish preset zero.
-
Zoom the camera all the way out and point it at the center-most location in the scene.
- Adjust any of the camera's image settings until you are happy with the look/style of the image. Image settings include any setting in one of the four images shown on the previous page.
- Move your cursor over to the preset control area on the right-hand side of the window. Click the drop down tab and select the number "0". Now click "Set".
(Note: A preset will save all of the camera's image settings and their values, when you click set.)
- Preset zero is now saved.
(Note: Whenever you enable auto-tracking, the camera will call Preset Zero and utilize the image settings saved to preset Zero. For example, if you have saved preset zero and the exposure compensation was set to -3, when you enable auto-tracking the exposure compensation will automatically be set to -3. No matter what image settings you are using before you begin auto-tracking, those image settings will switch to the settings saved to preset zero when auto tracking is turned on.)
-
Standard Presets: These presets can be assigned to any number between 1 and 254.
-
Begin by calling preset zero.
(Tip: We recommend taking a screenshot of preset zero to help color match new presets or camera shots from different cameras. It can also be vary helpful to pull the camera's video feed into live streaming software such as Vmix or OBS for viewing and comparison. To properly compare image quality, ensure you are using the same monitor or screen.)
- Move the camera into the position you would like to have saved as a preset.
- Compare the new preset position with preset zero to ensure they match. Most of the time they will not match, because you are taking the same image settings into a new area with different lighting that requires different settings. Here is where you will need to make adjustments to the image settings to color match with preset zero.
- Use the drop down tab to select the preset number you wish to save. Then click set.

Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Camera Maintenance
- If the camera will not be used for a long time, power off the camera.
- Use a soft cloth or lotion-free tissue to clean the camera body.
- Use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth to clean the lens. If the camera is very dirty, clean it with a diluted neutral detergent. Do not use any type of solvent or harsh detergent, which may damage the surface.
Unqualified Applications
- Do not shoot extremely bright objects for a long period of time.
- Do not operate close to powerful electromagnetic radiation, such as a TV or radio transmitter.
Troubleshooting
- No image
- Check whether the power cord is connected, voltage is OK & power LED is lit
- Check whether the camera can "self-test" after startup.
You can also press [*] > [#] > [Auto Focus] on the IR remote to trigger the camera to perform the startup dance on repeat. - If using SDI or HDMI, check that the desired connection is selected to output video. You can select the desired connection from the OSD Menu or through the Web Interface.
- Check that the video cable is connected to the destination device correctly.
• Image is shaky or vibrating
- Check whether the camera is mounted solidly to a steady horizontal and level surface.
- Check the building and any supporting furniture for vibration. Ceiling mounts are often affected by building vibration more than wall mounts. Any external vibration that is affecting the camera will be more apparent when zoomed in (tele).
• Abnormal display of image
- Check the resolution dial on the back of the camera. Verify that the resolution and refresh rate is supported by your destination device.
- If using SDI, check that the SDI level is set to the desired level.
• Image settings are changing on their own
- 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
- 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.
- 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.
- Try removing other sources of IR interface (sunlight, fluorescent lighting, etc.)
- Serial communication does not control the camera
- Make sure the camera is on and functioning with the IR remote controller.
- Verify that the RS-232/RS-485 cable is connected correctly and using the proper pinout.
- Verify the communication settings of the control software or device (e.g. joystick).
- Verify that the communication port on the controlling device is activated (e.g. Com port on PC).
- Verify that all communication settings in the OSD Setup Menu correlate to the commands being used (e.g. VISCA address).
• IP communication does not control the camera
- Verify that the camera and controlling device are on the same LAN with unique IP addresses.
- Verify that the controlling device is using the appropriate control port for the protocol.
o The default control ports are as follows: TCP: 5678, UDP: 1259, Sony UDP: 52381
