Adding support for FI8918W involves the following steps:

* Click on source column of ZM console next to the monitor you want to add PTZ control
* In control Tab, make sure "Controllable" is checked. In control type, select Foscam FI89831W (If it does not exist see later)
* In Control Device please put in:
** usr=xxx&pwd=yyy where xxx = camera user name and yyy is your password. (NOTE: usr NOT user)
* In Control Address put in IP:port of your camera
* In Auto Stop Timeout put in 1
* Leave track motion unchecked, track delay 0, Return Location none, Return Delay 0

===If FI9831W does not exist as a control type===
That means your version does not yet have the control protocol.
You need to do the following:
* Grab a copy of https://github.com/ZoneMinder/ZoneMinder/blob/master/scripts/ZoneMinder/lib/ZoneMinder/Control/FI9831W.pm and move it to /usr/share/perl5/ZoneMinder/Control/ or wherever your current control scripts reside (An easy way to find it is to look for AxisV2.pm --> an existing control protocol and that's your directory)
* In the control tab of your monitor, click on Edit -> Add New Control
