The main goal of this paper is to present a simple and inexpensive software solution for remote management of PTZ camera systems EVI-D70CP. Performed analysis demonstrates the technological solution for control of multiple cameras within lecture room or laboratory. Paper deals with the differences in the various serial communication methods, various functionalities of camera systems, followed by a description of communication protocols. Based on the gained knowledge there has been designed software solution for operating system Windows, which offers all functions required to control camera system, secure authentication and authorization of application users and which can store a camera preset parameters in SQLite database or permit them to be controlled via joystick. Software presented could be used in lecture rooms for remote management of PTZ cameras and possible streaming of video lectures over the Internet.
