The PTZOptics Super Preset allows you to call multiple camera presets simultaneously. You can call up to 8 camera presets this way, in addition to an optional custom HTTP-CGI command. Here are the steps for calling a super preset.

  • Select the camera group, the camera ID, and the preset you would like that individual camera to call.
  • Repreat the this process for up to 8 cameras. Keep in mind that each camera will need to have a presets previously assigned.
  • Click save.

The HTTP Trigger, UART, TCP, & UDP custom each allow for up to 10 unique commands. There are 5 assignable custom buttons on the joystick, and five software custom buttons that can be created in the web UI.

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 com- mand so long as the attached device supports them. To view our PTZOptics com- mands, please follow this link.
