Marshall VS-PTC-300 IP, NDI and Serial PTZ Camera Controller

The Marshall VS-PTC-300 controls compatible cameras through network and serial interfaces. Its built-in preview screen, joystick and separate zoom rocker support operation from one control position. Camera discovery, tally functions and picture adjustments help combine cameras using different supported control methods into a production workflow.

Marshall VS-PTC-300 Features

• Network and serial integration. IP, NDI, RS-232 and RS-422 interfaces support mixed camera systems. VISCA, VISCA over IP, ONVIF, Pelco D/P and NDI protocol options allow configuration for each compatible camera.
• Preview at the controller. The 3-inch LCD supports RTSP and NDI preview. This gives the operator a local camera view at the control surface rather than requiring every adjustment to be made while looking elsewhere.
• Separate movement and zoom controls. A joystick handles camera movement and a rocker/seesaw lever provides zoom control. The arrangement gives the operator distinct physical controls for positioning the camera and tightening its framing.
• Network camera discovery. IP/NDI discovery helps locate compatible cameras on the network. It supports initial configuration and makes network camera selection more manageable in installations with several camera positions.
• Tally and camera status. Normal, on-air and contact tally modes support production status indication. Correctly integrated tally helps the operator understand a camera's role while choosing or adjusting shots.
• Picture and maintenance controls. Exposure, iris, white balance, focus and movement-speed settings are available for supported cameras. Firmware updates through USB or the product webpage provide maintenance access without replacing the controller hardware.
