FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the Atomos A-Eye Control-PTZ Remote Control?

Its primary benefit is providing a centralized, IP-based control hub for multiple Atomos A-Eye PTZ cameras, simplifying operation with features like a built-in monitor and customizable shortcuts.

Does this controller work with PTZ cameras from other brands?

The controller is optimized for Atomos A-Eye PTZ cameras. While it supports the ONVIF protocol, which allows communication with other ONVIF-compliant devices, full functionality may vary depending on the third-party camera's implementation of the standard.

Can I power the controller and send data over a single Ethernet cable?

Yes, the controller supports Power over Ethernet (PoE+), allowing for a single Ethernet cable to provide both power and network connectivity.

How do I connect the controller to my PTZ cameras?

You connect the controller to your network via Ethernet. Once on the same network as your Atomos A-Eye PTZ cameras, you can discover and pair them through the controller's interface, typically using their IP addresses.

What is the purpose of the 5-inch LCD screen?

The 5-inch LCD screen provides real-time video monitoring directly from the connected PTZ cameras, allowing operators to frame shots and adjust settings without needing external monitors.

Can I set up specific camera positions and recall them later?

Yes, the controller allows you to save and recall camera positions as presets. These presets can often be assigned to customizable buttons for quick access.

What network protocols does the controller support?

The Atomos A-Eye Control-PTZ Remote Control supports ONVIF protocols for PTZ camera control over IP networks.

Troubleshooting

Controller not powering on

Verify the DC 12V power adapter is securely connected to both the controller and a working power outlet. If using PoE, ensure the Ethernet port supports PoE+ and the network switch is functioning correctly.

Cannot discover or connect to PTZ cameras

Ensure the controller and all PTZ cameras are on the same IP network. Check that the cameras are powered on and have a valid IP address. Verify that ONVIF is enabled on the cameras and that firewall settings are not blocking communication.

Joystick or buttons are unresponsive

Restart the controller and the connected PTZ cameras. Check for any firmware updates for the controller and cameras. If the issue persists, try re-pairing the cameras.

LCD screen shows no image or is distorted

Confirm that the camera associated with the displayed feed is correctly connected and powered on. Check the network connection between the controller and the camera. Try switching to a different camera feed to see if the issue is specific to one camera or the controller itself.
