'Abelcam is the best webcam software I have ever used.
I even got live support from its creator!!
Who could ask for more? Fantastic!

The mobotix cameras do not have a mechanical PTZ unit, but they provide Virtual PTZ through a web interface.

You can retrieve the parameters through this link:

http://your-mobotix-ip/control/click.cgi?help

The AbelCam Mobotix template has been configured using a Mobotix M22M

Camera Type

PTZ set only, values are absolute

Calibration

not required

Control Configuration

Range

Pan Min -1000 Max 2560

Tilt Min -1000 Max 2048

Zoom Min 1100 Max 4000
Using Minimum Value 1000 disables PT functions, Max value > 4000 results in terribly blocky images

Set

The camera does not offer PTZ setting in one URL, but AbelCam supports to send two URLs? at once. The URLs? have to be seperated by ;time_in_miliseconds;

URL for home position

/control/click.cgi?move&x=780&y=524;0;/control/click.cgi?zoom=1100

URL to set PTZ values

/control/click.cgi?zoom=#ZVALUE;0;/control/click.cgi?move&x=#PVALUE&y=#TVALUE

The camera expects integer values.
