camera images and save them as thumbnails which are in turn applied to icons
of shortcut keys on the Home screen, simply pressing the thumbnail will send
the PTZ camera to the pre-saved position.
Graphic icon for keys to simplify workflow
In addition to image keys, you can use the device’s
built-in graphical. Icons for better identification. We’ve pre-loaded
hundreds of these icons on the device for intuitive operation.
Image Key + Graphic Key

presentation contents which can be swapped with PIP images. In this way, the
keys are enlarged to facilitate operations.
