Description
The RCC6000 pan tilt zoom joystick controller replaces our RCC4000 controller. Like its predecessor, the RCC6000 supports VISCA protocol meaning it will work with any ptz camera using the VISCA command protocol over RS232 cabling. So if you simply want to upgrade your RCC4000 controller or other VISCA controller, the RCC6000 is a “drop-in” upgrade. In addition, our new PTZ joystick controller also supports VISCA over network/IP control. Just connect the controller to your local area network (LAN) using a single ethernet connection and you can control compatible IP cameras also connected to your LAN. We have added more controls and keys to the controller for easier, more efficient operation. You no longer have to search through menus to make adjustments to settings such as white balance, exposure mode, p/t/z speed and more. Set and recall preset positions Now it’s even easier to set and recall up to 10 preset positions with the RCC6000. A long press sets the position and a short press recalls the preset position. Multiple Camera Control With the RCC6000 you can control up to six cameras with just one controller. Whether connecting via VISCA over RS232 or VISCA over IP, once connected, you can easily switch between cameras using the camera shortcut keys. If using the RS232 communication mode, multiple cameras are connected to the RCC6000 in a daisy-chain configuration meaning Camera 1 connects to the RCC6000, Camera 2 connects to Camera 1, Camera 3 connects to Camera 2 and so on. The first cable that connects Camera 1 to the RCC6000 is the EVI CONTROL CABLE, with a serial connector to connect to the RCC6000 and 8-pin mini-DIN connector to connect to the camera. Additional cameras are connected to one another using EVI DS CABLE with 8-pin mini-DIN connectors on both ends. With ptz speed control knobs right on the front of the controller, you now have the ability to slow down or speed up camera movement.

One of the few well thought out PTZ camera controllers
I was looking for a PTZ controller that was responsive and well thought out.By that I mean, selecting, setting and recalling cameras and camera presets needed to be quick and easy.After first trying a different brand controller and research many others. I found that this was one of the few that met that requirement.-There are quick camera select buttons that allow you select each camera quickly.-Setting and recalling camera presets are where this controller really shine. To set a preset, simply position the camera where you want it and hold the preset button you want to assign it to for 3 seconds. To recall a preset simply tap the preset button you want to recall. Very quick and easy.This is a must went needing to quickly switch between cameras and preset positions during a live production.The camera control is very accurate and responsive as well.Customer support was great and responsive. I had an issue with a function of the controller that was not working correctly with the PTZ cameras I purchased. I contacted their support and within a couple of minutes they sent me a firmware update that corrected the problem.

Interfaces with whatever brand of PTZ
This helped solve a problem we had, wherein some of our cameras were Sony (Visca TCP) and some were other brands with different control protocols (Visca UDP, Onvif). This allow us to quickly and easily get set up to control all of them from one place.

Good function, but drops ip connectivity too much
Good control ideas on this product, but it drops connectivity MUCH too often to be worth the price point. Intuitive functionality is nice when it works. When it doesn’t…..
