  • 1.  Control PivotCam-20 with AW-RP120?

    Posted 06-14-2023 17:43

    Is it possible to control a PivotCam-20 with a Panasonic AW-RP120?
    We have 3 PivotCam-20 PTZs controlled over IP (VISCA; Nport 5150A).

    Thanks for your help!

    Hello Wyatt, unfortunately the Panasonic AW-RP120 was never tested with the PivotCam-20 and is not supported.  I have verified this with our Technical Support team and our R&D team.  I wish I had a better answer for you.

    Thanks Tim!

    I have a couple more questions about controllers if you have a moment.

    1. Will any VISCA over IP controller do the trick?
    2. Are there specific manufacturers/models of controllers that PivotCam users recommend as user friendly (volunteer friendly/intuitive) especially in a fast-paced environment? (quick preset recall, controller sensitivity settings, etc)

    Thanks again for your help!

    Hi Wyatt,

    Any controller should work as long as it follows VISCA protocols.  We commonly sold PivotCam-20 with a MOXA NPort 5100A.

    Does this help?
