The C2N-CAMIDJ is a professional joystick controller designed to provide a powerful yet simple user interface for the remote operation of networked cameras and lenses. Whether operating a single motorized camera in a council chamber or house of worship, or controlling a campus-wide network of multi-camera classrooms, the C2N-CAMIDJ can be used alone or in combination with a touchpanel to provide the perfect head end for camera control networks of virtually any size.
Ideally designed to support Crestron's C2N-CAMIDSPT Digital Servo Pan/Tilt Head, it is equally well equipped to work with third-party pan/tilt heads and integrated PTZ cameras as part of a complete Crestron control system.
Three-AxisJoystick—Precise camera positioning and zoom lens adjustment are facilitated through an ergonomic 3-axis joystick with large grip and cushioned wrist rest. Intuitive left/right and up/down movement of the joystick delivers effortless pan and tilt control, with zoom in/out capability instantly at hand through a simple twist of the joystick handle. Integrated thumb trigger buttons on top of the joystick afford immediate selection between high and low speeds to ensure smooth and accurate positioning on the fly.
Multipurpose Encoder Wheel—TheC2N-CAMIDJ’s encoder wheel provides for quick adjustment of lens focus and aperture settings as well as pan, tilt, and zoom speeds. The status for each parameter is displayed on a two-digit LED display.
User-definableButtons—Twelve (12) pushbuttons and feedback LED's are included to facilitate camera selection, preset recall, and other custom functions. Customizable label strips are provided to easily designate the function of each button using Crestron Engraver software.
Cresnet® Network Control—Designed for use with the 2-Series control system, the C2N-CAMIDJ takes full advantage of the steadfast Cresnet control network
to support up to 252 Crestron pan/tilt heads, camera controllers, touchpanels, and other devices. When controlling the C2N-CAMIDSPT pan/tilt head, network traffic is minimized by storing user presets directly onboard the pan/tilt head, minimizing the need for reporting position data to the control system. Virtually any number of third-party pan/tilt heads and cameras may also be controlled through the control system using the C2N-CAMIDJ.
Ethernet connectivity can easily be attained through the control system, enabling control over existing infrastructure from any remote distance.
