General description of the UNIVIEW KB-1100 control device

The schematic representation of the UNIVIEW KB-1100 PTZ control device is shown in the figure below.

The following physical controls are available on the device:

Joystick is a rotary control element that can move along three axes:

  • Pan axis (panning: left or right deviation).
  • Tilt axis (tilt: up or down deviation).
  • Zoom axis (scaling: clockwise or counterclockwise deviation).

Acceleration along each of the three axes depends on the degree of deviation from the center. The movement is performed until release. When released, the control returns to its original position.

Jog-Wheel (not integrated into Axxon PSIM!) is a rotary control element that can rotate only around its axis. When released, the control returns to its original position. On the illustration it is located at the bottom left (outer rotatory ring).

Shuttle is a rotary element that can rotate only around its axis. It is responsible for the discrete movement in one of two directions. It has no initial position but, when released, remains in place. On the illustration it is located at the bottom left (inner rotatory ring).

Button is the push control element that can represent two states. It is responsible for the discrete call of one of two functions (the function for pressing and the function for releasing). When released, it returns to its original position ("not pressed" state).

Of all button elements of the control device, the following blocks are integrated:

  • the block of playback control keys (six keys on the left: the record button is activated after pressing a button on the joystick);
  • the block of keys for controlling the focus, zoom, iris and PTZ presets (eight keys);

Also, the following keys, which used to work with the control device interface and aren't related to Axxon PSIM, are available:

  • Pressing the button on the joystick control (OK) (equivalent to pressing the ENTER key).
  • Cancel the action/return one step back to the control device menu (equivalent to pressing the ESC key).
  • Numbers/letters are entered from the numeric keyboard, the input mode (upper/lower register, digits) is switched by the SHIFT key.
  • Moving through the menu items and within the fields is performed by deviating the device control vertically/horizontally.

Configuring the control device before adding it to Axxon PSIM

Before you create the corresponding object in Axxon PSIM, you must configure the UNIVIEW KB-1100 PTZ control device in the following way:

  1. Enable the control device.
  2. Enter the login and password in the device display. The default credentials are as follows:
    1. login: admin
    2. password: 123456
  3. Configure the device control network configuration. To do this, set the following parameters in the Local Cfg -> Net Cfg menu:
    1. IP address
    2. Mask
    3. Gateway
  4. Add the Axxon PSIM Server/Remote Administration Workstation/Remote Client to the internal device configuration. To do this, set the following parameters in the Dev Manage -> Manual Cfg -> Add Dev menu:
    1. ID—enter any number (range: 1—240, the number must not coincide with the ID of the control device or other already added device).
    2. name—enter a string (1—8 characters).
    3. DType—select VM (VideoManagementSystem, that is, Axxon PSIM).
    4. LType—select NetWork (the control device is integrated for connecting to Axxon PSIM via the network).
    5. After you select LType, press the button on the joystick and enter the IP address of the Axxon PSIM Server/Remote Administration Workstation/Remote Client and the port used (the 60000 port is used by default).
  5. Connect to Axxon PSIM added in the previous step. To do this, enter the above ID in the FindDev -> Dev ID menu or select the found profile in the Dev Manage -> Search Dev menu.
  6. If the device is found, the information about it is displayed on the device display.
  7. Press on the ID field. As a result, you can work with the control device in Axxon PSIM.

Configuring the UNIVIEW KB-1100 control device is complete.
