camera control

The C2N-CAMIDSPT is a state-of-the-art camera pan/tilt head offering ultra fast, quiet and precise camera and lens control for videoconferencing, recording, distance learning, in-house television, and live video applications. The compact device supports a vast range of popular cameras and lenses weighing up to 15 lbs (6.8 kg). Full control of the pan/tilt movement, plus camera and lens functions, can be provided using the C2N-CAMIDJ Digital Joystick Controller or any Crestron touchpanel or remote.

Digital Servo Technology—With pan and tilt speeds of 60 degrees per second, the C2N-CAMIDSPT offers the fastest performance in its league. Pulse-width modulation and digital servo technology deliver quick, smooth response with remarkably quiet operation. Nearly 360 degrees of pan and 180 degrees of tilt travel provide essentially limitless movement with extremely precise positioning achieved using digital optical encoders instead of analog potentiometers. Adjustable hard stops on both pan and tilt axes can be set to limit movement and prevent potential damage to the camera and lens. Setup is made easy using the built-in

5-way mini joystick to provide local position and lens control.

Lens Personality Modules—External plug-in personality modules define the C2N-CAMIDSPT’s lens configuration, with modules provided for 6, 8, and 12 Volt motorized lenses as well as 2.5 to 7.5 Volt servomotor lenses. Both “position” and “speed” modes are available for controlling servomotor lenses, allowing immediate movement to a specified position as well as smooth variable speed control. Lenses equipped with potentiometer feedback are also supported, and a fully programmable RS-232 port is built in to provide bidirectional communication for control of serial-controllable cameras and double hot shoe type lenses.

Cresnet® Network Control—Designed for use with the 2-Series control system, the C2N-CAMIDSPT takes full advantage of the steadfast Cresnet control network to support up to 252 pan/tilt heads, camera controllers, touchpanels, and other devices. Up to 100 user presets are stored directly onboard the pan/tilt head, significantly reducing network traffic by minimizing the need for reporting position data to the control system. Ethernet connectivity is easily attained through the control system, enabling full control over existing infrastructure from any remote distance.
