Featuring a precision 3-axis joystick and dedicated focus knob, the Skaarhoj PTZ Pro V2 Camera Controller makes it easy to pan, tilt, and rotate your cameras while also controlling their focus and zoom. The control panel features four backlit encoder knobs, ten camera selection buttons, and multiple programmable multifunction keys for presets and menu navigation. The updated V2 model adds compatibility with more camera models.
The PTZ Pro V2 runs the SKAARHOJ-developed open-source UniSketch OS, which is user programmable to fit specific workflows. PoE (Power-over-Ethernet) technology simplifies setup by enabling data and power to travel via a single cable. The controller is compatible with VISCA devices and other IP-controlled cameras from brands such as AIDA, Blackmagic, Lumens, NewTek, Vaddio, BirdDog, Panasonic, PTZ Optics, and Sony.
A power adapter, a USB programming cable, and an Ethernet cable are included in the box. There are available options to upgrade the joystick to the Hall Effect ergonomic joystick, as well as an option for an SDI upgrade component for use with Blackmagic Arduino Shields and fibre converters.
This product comes with Blue Pill Inside. Blue Pill Inside means that the hardware of a Blue Pill is moved into your controller instead of combining a stand-alone Blue Pill with a UniSketch panel. The net result is the same, but with some twists: The advantage of Blue Pill Inside is that at the same cost you have everything in one unit - but you can’t enjoy the features from UniSketch anymore.
