Network Control—Designed for use with the
2-Series control system, the C2N-CAMIDSPT takes full
advantage of the steadfast Cresnet control network to
support up to 252 pan/tilt heads, camera controllers,
touchpanels, and other devices. Up to 100 user presets
are stored directly onboard the pan/tilt head, significantly
reducing network traffic by minimizing the need for reporting
position data to the control system. Ethernet connectivity
is easily attained through the control system, enabling full
control over existing infrastructure from any remote distance.
Digital Servo Technology
Ultra fast, quiet, and precise pan/tilt operation
Bidirectional RS-232 and analog lens control ports
Supports camera/lens combinations up to 15 lbs.
100 onboard user presets

The C2N-CAMIDSPT is a state-of-the-art camera pan/tilt
head offering ultra fast, quiet and precise camera and lens
control for videoconferencing, recording, distance learning,
in-house television, and live video applications. The compact
device supports a vast range of popular cameras and lenses
weighing up to 15 lbs (6.8 kg). Full control of the pan/tilt
movement, plus camera and lens functions, can be provided
using the C2N-CAMIDJ Digital Joystick Controller or any
Crestron touchpanel or remote.
Digital Servo Technology—With pan and tilt speeds of
60 degrees per second, the C2N-CAMIDSPT offers the
fastest performance in its league. Pulse-width modulation
and digital servo technology deliver quick, smooth response
with remarkably quiet operation. Nearly 360 degrees of pan
and 180 degrees of tilt travel provide essentially limitless
movement with extremely precise positioning achieved using
digital optical encoders instead of analog potentiometers.
Adjustable hard stops on both pan and tilt axes can be set
to limit movement and prevent potential damage to the
camera and lens. Setup is made easy using the built-in
5-way mini joystick to provide local position and lens control.
Lens Personality Modules—External plug-in personality
modules define the C2N-CAMIDSPT’s lens configuration,
with modules provided for 6, 8, and 12 Volt motorized lenses
as well as 2.5 to 7.5 Volt servomotor lenses. Both “position”
and “speed” modes are available for controlling servomotor
lenses, allowing immediate movement to a specified position
as well as smooth variable speed control. Lenses equipped
with potentiometer feedback are also supported, and a fully
programmable RS-232 port is built in to provide bidirectional
communication for control of serial-controllable cameras and
double hot shoe type lenses.
