Wiring​

Compatible Cyanview device: RCP, RIO, RIO Live

If the RCP/RIO doesn't have an IP address in the same range as the camera IP, you should add one in the LAN section by following this guide.

Setup​

In this example, we will set up a Panasonic AW-UE150, but the setup is similar for all other PTZ.

On the same RCP. You can have multiple PTZ from multiple brands without any issue.

Setup:

  • Click on the + in the camera block, a new panel will appear on the right
  • In General Configure a Number and a Name
  • Select the brand (here Panasonic)
  • Select the model (here AW-UE150)
  • Enter the IP of your PTZ

If everything went well, it should go green:

Pan/Tilt​

Once the camera is configured, you can have:

  • Cyanview RCP (shading) and Sony joystick panel (rm-ip500)
  • Cyanview RCP (shading + pan/tilt/zoom/focus) from touchscreen, more information here
  • Cyanview RCP (shading + pan/tilt/zoom/focus) from USB joystick, more information here

Remote control / Remote production​

Even if the PTZ control is IP, it can be interesting to combine a PTZ with a RIO (with AVIWEST for example).

Or combine local shading with RCP with remote shading from anywhere in the world using a second RCP.
