Product Overview

A full-size remote camera system controller that has the capability to control cameras via both IP and serial connections, the Panasonic AW-RP120 adds support to the company's expanding line-up of remote camera systems.

The RP120 is cost-effective and offers advanced functions including Group Presets for quick, easy scene changes, Tracing Memories for storage and recall of complex operations, SD Memory Card storage, and direct panel control of gain, pedestal, and detail settings. With its easy-to-use control layout and the most powerful feature set of any Panasonic controller, it addresses a wide range of applications in Broadcasting, sports, houses of worship, education, rental/staging, corporate, and government.

The RP120 delivers control of up to 100 Panasonic cameras via IP or five via RS-422 serial connections. Compatible cameras include the AW-HE50H/S, AW-HE60H/S, AW-HE120, AW-HE130, AW-HE40, AW-UE70, AW-HE100, and AW-HE2 HD integrated PTZ cameras – plus the AK-HC1500, AK-HC1800, AW-HE870, and many other convertible cameras when used with appropriate pan/tilt heads (all cameras sold separately).

The RP120 supports flexible system configurations, with Group Presets, Scene Files, and up to 100 presets for up to 100 remote cameras. Selectable automatic IP address allocation further simplifies the commissioning of large-scale systems. Any one of five RP120 controllers on the network can select and control any compatible IP-controlled camera. An RS-232C port enables external control for systems employing appropriately programmed PC, Crestron, AMX, and other 3rd party controllers. Panasonic's compact AW-HS50 switcher (sold separately) can also be linked to the controller via IP connection to permit a streamlined production workflow

The RP120's control panel features a large pan/tilt joystick, seesaw zoom lever, iris dial, and manual focus dial with One-Touch Autofocus. A dedicated speed adjustment dial is provided for each of the pan/tilt/zoom and focus functions. Precise camera moves and scene operations can be memorized and recalled via the unit's Tracing Memory. Up to 10 Tracing Memory script items can be stored for each camera. In addition, up to 100 standard presets, including pan, tilt, zoom position, focus, iris, and white balance settings can be quickly stored and recalled for each camera, greatly simplifying operation in large or complex venues. By creating up to four Groups Presets (up to 10 cameras each) multiple camera angles and settings can be retrieved in a single batch, facilitating one-touch control of rapid scene changes.

The remote controller permits direct adjustment of a camera's Gain, Shutter, Detail, AWB, ABB, Master Pedestal, R/B Pedestal, and R/B Gain. Other menu functions of compatible Panasonic cameras can be also controlled using the RP120. Its LCD panel facilitates menu operation as well as dedicated zoom; focus and iris indicator display. Various functions can also be allocated to eight User Buttons for one-touch control. Scene files can be utilized for one-touch switching of remote camera shooting modes, and settings can be stored on an SD Memory Card for backup and cloning setups to other controllers.

The RP120 has a simple, ergonomic design for easy operation in diverse settings but is powerful enough to satisfy high-level staging and production needs. The unit measures 13-1/2" W x 3-1/16" D x 10-17/16" H and weighs just under 7 pounds.
