The PTZ device object is used to register and configure the PTZ device in Axxon PSIM.

The settings panel of the PTZ device object is shown in the figure.

The Main tab

The table describes the parameters of the settings corresponding to the elements of the settings panel of the PTZ device object.

№	Parameter	Method for setting the parameter value	Parameter description	Representation	Default value	Value range
1	Identification number*	Automatically	Displays the identification number of the PTZ device object in the video surveillance system with the distributed architecture	Numbers, letters, periods, hyphen, dash, and underscore	NA	Depends on the number of the PTZ device objects in the video surveillance system with the distributed architecture
2	Name*	Enter the value in the field	Sets the name of the PTZ device object in the video surveillance system with the distributed architecture	Latin, Cyrillic characters, and service characters	PTZ device	A line containing a sequence of any characters (letters, digits, service characters except > and < characters), case-insensitive. Number of characters—from 1 to 60
3	Disable	Set the checkbox	Disables the PTZ device object in the video surveillance system with the distributed architecture	Boolean type	Clear	Set—the PTZ device object is disabled and isn't used Clear—the PTZ device object is enabled and is used
4	Telemetry Controller	Select the value from the list	Sets the Telemetry Controller parent object of the system with the distributed architecture to which the given PTZ device object belongs	Name of the PTZ device objects registered in the system	Name of the Telemetry Controller parent object	Depends on the number of the telemetry controllers in the video surveillance system with the distributed architecture
The Camera group
5	Number	Select the value from the list	Sets the identification number of the camera on which the PTZ device is installed	Sequence of numbers	NA	Depends on the number of video cameras in the video surveillance system with the distributed architecture
