To maneuver the camera, use the horizontal, vertical and zoom sliders above. Or,
you can click on any part of the camera image to point the camera at an object.
You will have 60 seconds of control, until the next user in line gains access to
the controls. You may have to wait a couple of minutes before you can control
the camera, while users ahead of you control it.
If you have trouble getting the camera's Java applet to load, you may not have
Java installed or enabled in your Web browser. Follow this help guide for
assistance.
