Is PTZ analog camera control possible through a Hikvision DVR?

Post by Essity »

Hello all, like the title say I'm wondering if Zoneminder can controll an analog camers through the DVR it is connected to
My current setup is a Zoneminder 1.36.33 on a Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS
DVR model = Hikvision DS-9016HQHI-SH
Analog camera PTZ settings in the DVR has only one drop down and it is set to "HIKVISION-C"
The setup in Zoneminder for that particular Hikvision camera (it is analog camera #9 on the Hikvision DVR)
Source path = rtsp://user:password@IP ADDRESS:554/Streaming/Channels/901
The camera is controllable from the DVR, I hope it is controllable from Zoneminder as well, please let me know
And if it is possible please point me to an example of what would be the settings to use in Zoneminder
Thank you
Essity
