It features an efficient driving system for smooth, precise pan and tilt movements. Compatible with most broadcast-grade cameras, it allows remote control of camera functions like pan, tilt, zoom, and aperture.
With HDBaseT connectivity, the PTR-15T simplifies setups by transmitting 4K video, audio, control signals, and power over a single Ethernet cable, reducing clutter and extending connection distances. However, it's important to note that the PTR-15T can only be used in conjunction with the HBT-18, ensuring optimal performance and connectivity.
The PTR-15T also includes a built-in FreeD virtual tracking feature, using computer vision to track subjects accurately.
Control options include IR, VISCA protocol, Datavideo RMC-180 MARK II, RMC-300A, HS-1600T series, and compatibility with serial and Ethernet (DVIP) connections.
The PTR-15T boasts an extensive range of signal interfaces for seamless integration with the remote head.
These interfaces encompass SDI, HDMI, RS-232, RS-422, DVIP, HDBaseT, Tally, and LANC, providing diverse connectivity options.
With PTR-15T, transitioning from conventional camcorder cameras to remote-controlled PTZ becomes a cost-effective solution. The system empowers a single operator to efficiently manage multi-camera remote operations.
Benefit from PTR-15T's LanC control, which seamlessly integrates with a diverse selection of professional video camcorders. This compatibility empowers you to choose the optimal camcorders that align with your specific requirements.
Crafted from aluminum alloy, the PTR-15T boasts a mere weight of 3.7 kg. Its robust design serves as a stable foundation for your camera setup, offering the strength needed to support cameras weighing up to 4 kilograms.
Engineered from robust aluminum alloy, PTR-15T features a super-strong design, providing a sturdy foundation for your camera setup. This construction ensures dependable support for cameras weighing up to 4 kilograms.
In addition to the standard RS-232/422 control, the PTR-15T provides robust IP-based control, keeping up with the modern trend of IP-based systems. This technology migrates the camera control protocols and technical parameter adjustments used in high-end broadcast studios to an open IP environment. This transformation breaks away from the previous limitations of exclusive one-to-one control, enabling the free switching of different cameras and achieving precise adjustments of camera parameters such as aperture, shutter, red/blue gain, inflection point, and more. This advancement allows on-site camera operations to enter an unprecedented era of convenience.
The robust and stable nature of SDI interfaces makes them highly suitable for broadcast environments, while HDMI offers high compatibility with peripheral devices. The PTR-15T fully supports both 12G-SDI and HDMI 2.0 standards for broadcast and AV applications. Whether you require SDI or HDMI connections, it provides a complete 4K50/60P audiovisual transmission channel.
This is one of the criteria that differentiates broadcast-grade equipment from regular cameras. The genlock function allows interconnection of all cameras and display devices, ensuring precise synchronization at every frame, all operating on the same clock frequency. This prevents issues like tearing due to unstable frame transmission.
The timecode calibration function enables the interconnection of all cameras and recording devices, providing the same time parameters. This establishes a unified time reference point for subsequent archiving or post-production, ensuring consistency.
For comprehensive video production demands encompassing various angles and perspectives, PTR-15T boasts the capacity to support 199 preset camera positions, catering to your diverse needs.
Activate these presets effortlessly using the IR remote control, enabling quick access to any of the 199 positions.
In conjunction with the RMC-300A universal remote controller, you can instantly access presets using its 14 dedicated physical buttons.
With the RMC-180 MARK II remote control, 4 physical buttons are available for swift preset recall.
The PTR-15T is designed to deliver its full potential when paired exclusively with the Datavideo HBT-18. This combination ensures that the 4K 12G-SDI HDBaseT robotic pan-tilt head operates with maximum efficiency and reliability. The HBT-18 facilitates the seamless transmission of video, audio, control signals, and power through a single Ethernet cable, making it the perfect match for the PTR-15T. By using these two devices together, users can expect enhanced performance, longer connection distances, and reduced setup complexity, ensuring a smooth and professional production experience.
Enhanced with a prominent tally light positioned on the front, PTR-15T conveniently displays your camera's operational status.
To accommodate the diverse range of camera power specifications, the PTR-15T provides dual-voltage power outputs. This feature easily adapts to the majority of business and professional-grade cameras available on the market. Through a toggle switch on the rear panel, you can switch between power output specifications, ensuring stable power supply. The design includes surge protection circuits for enhanced safety during use.
Datavideo's PTR-15T robotic pan tilt head combines advanced pan-tilt technology with AR/VR systems. It interfaces via RS-422 to transmit pan, tilt, and zoom data to the TVS-3000 Virtual Studio Production System, ensuring seamless collaboration.
For different cameras and lenses, it supports lens tracking data acquisition via ZEK-1 or ZEK-2 sensors, enabling lens zoom control and motor tracking synchronization. The RS-422 output provides 8-bit precision Free-D protocol tracking data, compatible with most virtual systems.
It offers precise pan (±340 degrees) and tilt (±45 degrees) control with adjustable motion trajectories and speeds, achieving high precision. Built on Datavideo's DVIP protocol, it's compatible with TCP/IP network protocols, supporting third-party device control.
You can choose the RMC-300A IP control panel with a 5-inch UI touchscreen or the RMC-180 MARK II serial control panel for dual-system control, enhancing security and reliability.
ZEK-1 is the solution to your free running Zoom cameras.
PTR-15T can read its own Pan/Tilt movement and send back to controller for position memory and recall. Now, with ZEK-1, it can detect and read out the Zoom changes. And convert those information into Zoom position to send back for controller to memory and recall the saved zoom position.
Compatible with cameras via zoom moving ring.
