We're using this controller to control 2 P/T/Z 20X camera in our sanctuary for live streaming. The controller is easy to setup and use. It operates quietly and smoothly. The many functions give great control over the cameras.

Works very well - just as advertised. Love the fact that you can control Zoom speed manually as well.

Compré este Joystick para el sistema de cámaras PTZ que estamos instalando en nuestra Iglesia y funciona muy bien. Fue muy fácil de configurar y poder conectar nuestras dos cámaras SMTAV de 20x y 30x.Se puede acceder a la interfaz web para una configuración más sencilla o directamente desde el Joystick. Las teclas de acceso rápido son muy cómodas e intuitivas y además tienen buena calidad. Lo estamos alimentando vía un switch PoE; eso sí, la tecla de On/Off queda inhabilitada si se alimenta por PoE por lo que se apaga y enciende junto con el Switch.
