Configuring a camera

Use the System Design and Connections views to configure this device. Security cameras, including on-screen controls in Navigators such as pan, tilt, zoom, and preset settings, are supported, along with HTTP control and JPEG or MJPEG images.

Drivers for cameras (also referred to as IP cameras, web cameras, or security cameras) now have greater configurability within Composer Pro. A camera diagnostics page has also been added to the basic properties. In addition, the video feed quality is greatly improved for mobile viewing.

Prerequisites

• Ensure that your project has a Control4 controller added to the project tree and is identified on the Control4 system.

• Ensure that the camera is installed as directed in the manufacturer's installation guide.

To add and configure a camera:

1. In the camera's Properties pane, click Help. A help topic opens explaining how to configure and test the camera driver.
