Analog camera via external crossbar

The following panel is displayed if you select analog cameras via external crossbars.

Configuration Active

Activates/deactivates the camera in the system.

Permanent connection

This option enables a permanent connection of the camera via a pool encoder. In most cases this option is not used for this operating mode.

Streaming

Defines the connection to the crossbar.

Device

In this combo box one of the existing crossbars can be selected.

Address

Crossbar address of the camera

Available pool names for device

All pool names defined for encoder pool channels of the selected crossbar are displayed in this area. With the arrow buttons you can assign the pool names to or remove them from the device.

Selected pool names

Shows pool names which are assigned to the device.

Stream

Since it is not predictable via which encoder the camera is connected during operation, the number of streams available on the encoder must be specified here.

PTZ Control

Defines the PTZ control of the camera.

PTZ internal

If set, PTZ commands for the camera are sent to the crossbar.

PTZ transparent

If set, the PTZ commands are sent to an external device which must be configured.

The configuration of the PTZ control is the same as described in the chapter Configuration of analog cameras via encoder.
