MouseJoy Mode allows you to control PTZ camera using a laptop touchpad, trackball mouse, or simply using the movement of any regular mouse. By simply pressing a designated computer keyboard button, your mouse, laptop touchpad, or trackball mouse becomes a PTZ joystick controller. This feature is ideal for controlling your cameras from a laptop computer in a video conferencing environment, eliminating the need for any additional equipment such as bulky joystick controllers.
- Activate this feature by clicking on the “MouseJoy” button in the application.
- On your computer keyboard, press and hold the “ALT” button and your mouse becomes a joystick. Whatever direction you move your mouse, your finger on a touchpad, or the ball in a trackball mouse, is the direction your camera will move. The mouse scroll wheel will control zoom. Release the "ALT" button to stop the movement.
