VIDEO SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM CONTROLLER

摘要

A video surveillance system controller that controls multiple cameras with at least two joysticks (2, 3) and a keypad (4) to enable live queuing of the cameras. Each joystick (2, 3) independently controls a camera selected by the keypad (4). The keypad (4) can also select one of a number of monitors for displaying the view from a selected camera. The controller has a number of output ports that are configurable for different camera protocols, alarms and other external devices. Each joystick (2, 3) has at least two-axis control, for example, pan and tilt of a camera. The joystick (2, 3) may be three-axis to control pan, tilt and drive or four-axis to control pan, tilt, zoom and drive, or other control combinations.
