HTTP-CGI STUB Command or Current Camera Command​

This is feature allows you to save an http command to a custom button. When ever you press the custom button, the command will be sent to the currently selected camera.

In the example below, Custom button 1 is assigned the Current Camera Command.

  • http://{{CURRENT_CAM}}/cgi-bin/ptzctrl.cgi?ptzcmd&home

With this command, you can press the custom button and the currently selected camera will return to it’s home position.

This feature can also be used with the SuperJoy’s 5th custom button located on the joystick knob, allowing users to quickly issue their most frequently used command to the currently selected camera.

The joystick can send out any TCP, UDP, or HTTP-CGI command in the custom commands so long as the attached device supports them. To view our PTZOptics commands, please follow this link.
