Its exposure mode delivers a clear image even in a low light environment or under conditions of extreme light and dark contrast in a conference room.
The camera covers a wide shooting angle and utilizes the high efficiency servo-controlled DC motor to achieve instantaneous, quiet, and precise positioning, as well as smooth PTZ operations.
PTC-120 supports 3G-SDI, DVI, component, and Composite Video interfaces to allow four simultaneous image outputs.
PTC-120 is compatible with all video equipment with up to 128 preset settings. A dedicated remote control is available. PTC-120 delivers a continuous, clear, and vivid live image without any distortions. It is ideally suited for lecture recording, video conferencing, and stage performance.

3. System Configuration
The PTC-120 PTZ Color Video Camera can be set up in various system configurations. This section describes how PTC-120 can be connected as a standalone device as well as cascade connection of multiple cameras.
3.1 Single Camera Connection
IR Remote Control
This camera can be set up within a short distance by using the supplied IR remote control, see section 5.1. In this way the camera can be used as a standalone device. The following video output connections are available from the rear of the camera, 3G-SDI, Component, DVI and CVBS. Below scenario diagrams show each of these connections in use with an appropriate cable and monitor/TV.
PTC-120 to an HDTV or a computer
monitor (DVI) (Cable Optional)
PTC-120 to a TV (Composite Video)
(Cable Optional)
PTC-120 to a monitor (3G-SDI)
(Cable Optional)
PTC-120 to an HDTV or a TV
(Component) (Cable Optional)

SONY VISCA Compatible Controller
In addition to the supplied IR remote control, the PTC-120 camera can also be controlled remotely using a SONY VISCA compatible controller such as the Datavideo RMC-190 unit. This camera can be controlled over an RS-232C or RS-422 connection as shown in the diagrams below. The camera video output is connected to the monitor via one of the four available video interfaces.
RS-232 System Setup
RS-422 System Setup

3.2 Multiple Cameras Cascade
The PTC-120 camera can also be used in an environment where multiple cameras are required. With RS-232 INPUT/OUTPUT ports, the user is allowed to cascade up to seven cameras, which are subsequently controlled by either a computer (Please download a utility program first from
http://www.serialporttool.com/PTZ.htm
in case you need to control the camera via a PC) or a SONY VISCA compatible controller. RS-232C and RS-422 system setups for connection of multiple cameras are illustrated in the respective diagrams below.
RS-232C Cascade Connection
RS-422 Cascade Connection
For wiring information, please see Section 11 for RS-232C and Section 12 for RS-
422.
However, the connection will be broken if one unit is powered off. In other words, the cameras connected subsequent to the broken one will become uncontrollable by RMC-190. For example, in the above diagram, if cameras #2 and #3 are defective or powered off, all camera connections (4/5/6/7) after camera #3 will be cut off from the daisy chain and RMC-190 will not be able to control them even if the cameras are still operable.
The cameras have to be at least in the standby mode for the entire daisy chain connection to stay controllable by RMC-190. In the above example, if cameras #2 and #3 are in standby mode, the user will still be able to control all cameras after camera #3 from RMC-190.
If the camera is powered off or defective, there will be no LED lighting in standby mode. The user should check the LED lighting first if the daisy chain is found to be broken.
