This intuitive option gives operators the confidence that their subject is in focus, framed, and tracked as they expertly configure multiple camera angles and shots. Touch Panel Multi Display The large touch screen display can show multiple cameras via Canon’s multi display feature, presenting camera images in either 2x2 or 3x3 layouts, for up to nine camera feeds on a single screen. With so many camera feeds at their fingertips, operators can simply touch and call up any displayed camera for operation and control. Clear and Easy to Operate Layout The RC-IP1000’s allows for quick and easy access to items such as the cameras setting, status, and all users to see live video from the camera that gives them access to touch focus and crop frame control. Control Panel Designed for Instant Activation of Functions The RC-IP1000 helps enable intuitive control of multiple PTZ cameras quickly and easily, featuring 42 buttons and 14 dials, including assignable buttons, programmable trace operation, and adjustable speed and response controls. LEDs are used to display equipment status, indicating selections without having to look at the screen display. Control Lever and Zoom Rocker For customized tactile operation, the control lever and zoom rocker reaction rates and speeds can be adjusted, as well as the pan-tilt speed and angle of the control joystick so the controller matches the style of the operator. A multi-preset function combines preset operations on each individual camera, allowing multiple cameras to quickly move simultaneously to a predetermined angle of view. Wide Range of Video Interfaces The RC-IP1000 provides 4K 60P video input/output via 12G-SDI, IP image input, as well as HDMI output allowing the user to bring in video from a variety of sources and displaying them on a local monitor over the HDMI out. OSD Menu Display Camera OSD menu from compatible cameras can be shown on the touch panel and operated using push-button controls, allowing users to do configurations with familiar screens found on the camera. Simultaneous Settings for Multiple Cameras Multiple cameras connected to the controller can be assigned the same movements and settings simultaneously. Additionally, settings can be saved for backup use or for multi-preset function that combines preset operations on each individual camera, allowing multiple cameras to quickly move simultaneously to a predetermined angle of view. Supports Canon’s XC Protocol and NU Protocol The RC-IP1000 supports Canon’s XC Protocol over IP which enables one-to-many control. This empowers operations in sophisticated multi-camera productions where they can control up to 200 cameras. The controller also supports up to 5 Canon products connected via serial connection via NU Protocol. Power With Either PoE+ or 4-pin XLR (12v DC) The RC-IP1000 supports PoE+, enabling power, control, and video feed with a single cable*. This standard enables power supply via LAN cable, so no power supply setup or power cable wiring is necessary. This cuts down on wiring during installation and helps reduce installation costs. The controller also includes a versatile 12V DC 4-pin XLR power connector, allowing a wide range of power sources to be used. * When using power supply via PoE+, either the touch panel/LED lamp brightness is limited, or the use of USB ports is limited (selectable in settings). Add-On Application Support If you are using one of the in-camera Add-On Applications, such as Auto Tracking or Auto loop, the RC-IP1000 can be used for functions such as setting adjustments and fine tuning of operation. The Auto Tracking Application enables the PTZ camera to automatically track the speaker or other specified persons during commercial presentations, lectures, and other events. Settings such as auto tracking start/stop, display size of the tracking subject, auto zoom function, tracking sensitivity, and auto select of tracking subject can be selected from the menu. With the Auto Loop Application, the camera constantly performs regular PTZ movements automatically, allowing the operator to concentrate on switching and main camera framing. Users can set auto loop start/stop, route number, loop movement, and loop direction right from the RC-IP1000 menu. Switcher Link via SDI/GPIO The RC-IP1000 can be connected to a switcher using SDI/GPIO, enabling synchronization of switcher video selection with controller camera selection. And by synching the switcher tally status with the controller, the program video shooting camera button can be shown in red, and the preview video shooting camera button can be shown in green.
