Control

The Control tab is for recalling camera presets and triggering custom buttons during a live session. It provides quick access to the currently active group's cameras and their presets, without requiring any configuration changes.

Page Layout

The Control page is divided into two panels:

PanelContents
LeftGroup selector, Camera ID buttons, Position Preset section
RightCustom Buttons

Group

The Group dropdown at the top of the left panel sets the active camera group. All camera selection and preset recall operations apply to cameras within the selected group.

Available Options
GROUP 1
GROUP 2
GROUP 3
GROUP 4
note

The Control page shows Groups 1–4. This matches the group scope available for live control operations. Camera groups are configured on the Devices page.

Changing the group immediately makes that group's cameras available for selection.

Camera ID

The Camera ID section displays numbered buttons for each camera slot in the active group. Click a camera button to select it as the active camera. The selected camera button is highlighted.

Camera IDDescription
1–6Camera slots within the active group
note

The Control page displays 6 camera slots (1–6). Camera slot 7 is not accessible from this view.

Only one camera can be active at a time. All preset recalls apply to the currently selected camera.

Position Preset

The Position Preset section provides two methods for recalling a camera preset — moving the selected camera to a previously saved position.

Quick-Access Preset Buttons

Nine preset buttons (Preset1 through Preset9) provide single-click recall for presets 1–9.

ButtonPreset Recalled
Preset1Preset 1
Preset2Preset 2
Preset3Preset 3
Preset4Preset 4
Preset5Preset 5
Preset6Preset 6
Preset7Preset 7
Preset8Preset 8
Preset9Preset 9

Click any preset button to immediately send the recall command to the active camera.

Manual Preset Entry

To recall a preset number outside the 1–9 quick-access range, use the Input preset text field:

  1. Type a preset number into the Input preset field.
  2. Press the Enter button (↵) to the right of the field, or press Enter on your keyboard.
  3. The controller sends the recall command for that preset number to the active camera.
note

Preset numbers outside the 1–9 range (e.g., preset 10, preset 50, preset 200) can only be recalled via manual entry. Camera presets are numbered 0–253 depending on the camera model.

Custom Buttons

The Custom Buttons panel on the right side of the Control page displays all configured custom buttons as clickable tiles. This provides a live-operation shortcut to the same buttons defined on the Custom page.

Each tile is labeled with its button name (e.g., Custom Button 1, Custom Button 2). Clicking a tile fires all commands configured for that button.

note

The number of Custom Button tiles shown matches the total number of buttons configured on the Custom page — including any user-added buttons beyond the default five.

note

Clicking a Custom Button tile here is identical to pressing the button on the Custom page. All configured commands (TCP, UDP, UART, HTTP Trigger, or Super Preset) fire immediately.
