I am very new to the world of CCTV. I am trying to connect one camera to a laptop which would be able to view the signal, as well as control the lens and PTZ servo. I am using a Rainbow Lens (L10X65MCS), which is controlled by an LCA4 Lens controller. The camera is attached to a Diawa PTZ-M2 Servo, which controls pan and tilt.
I need to be able to control pan, tilt, zoom, focus, and iris from the laptop, and I realize that I will need both hardware and software to do this. I already have a lead on an s-video/USB adapter, but the rest is pretty foreign. Does anyone have any suggestions where to start? If need be, I can ditch the servo, maybe even the lens.
