Mouse wheel rolls are queued to allow a camera to be zoomed (or focused) in or out without having to continuously roll the wheel. If the wheel
is rolled forward several times in quick succession, the user must roll the wheel backward one step in order to stop the zoom (or focus).
You can also control zoom and focus functions with the numeric keypad on the VMX200 keyboard. Refer to Table E for a description of keyboard
control functions.
Iris Control
When using a camera offering iris control, press the Alt key and roll the mouse wheel to adjust the iris setting on the camera. Cameras
supporting auto iris will revert to their auto settings following any subsequent mouse movement.
