Adjusting video settings

Last Updated : Dec 09, 2025 |

About this task

From the Camera Control page, you can configure your device so that the camera is turned off when the codec is idle. You can also configure the device to disable the camera by default when first joining a conference call.

You can manage vertical and horizontal movements for a local and remote camera, auto focus, and zoom. You can also set up image, backlight, and flicker parameters. You can create pan, tilt, and zoom (PTZ) presets that you can later recall from the same page to quickly move your camera to the required position.

The Camera Parameters configuration section applies only to the cameras integrated into Avaya Room System C130 and Avaya Room System C170 models.

Procedure

  1. On the web interface navigation menu, go to Control > Camera Control.
  2. To disable the camera when the codec is in an idle state, toggle on the Turn Off Camera When Idle switch.
  3. To disable the camera by default when joining a conference call, toggle on the Join And Turn Off The Camera switch.
  4. In the Turn section, adjust the horizontal and vertical position of the video frame.
  5. In the Focus section, use the Focus In and Focus Out buttons to adjust the camera focus.
  6. In the Preset Position section, click Set to save the current PTZ configuration as a preset position.
  7. To recall a PTZ preset, click Activate, and in the Invoke Preset window, enter the preset number.

    The camera moves to the preset position.
