# Arduino VISCA Controller |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is a project for using an Arduino to send VISCA commands. This is specifically tailored for interfacing with the |
|
|
|
Cisco TelePresence Precision series of conference cameras (specifically testing with the TTC8-02 12x zoom w/ SDI output). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The TelePresence cameras have a slight quirk to controlling it over VISCA. To get manual control over the pan/tilt/zoom |
|
|
|
rates the camera needs to be sent the IR disable command, otherwise all movements behave with a speed ramp as if you |
|
|
|
were controlling it with an IR remote. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Arduino Shield board present in the EAGLE directory is intended to make connecting to a TelePresence camera and |
|
|
|
wiring I/O easier. The shield has headers to allow for powering the Arduino off its internal voltage regulator or via |
|
|
|
VIN (includes header points to make swapping easy). There is also a header to provide 12v power over the RJ45 |
|
|
|
connection to remotely power the camera (untested). The shield incudes an RS232 transciever so it is ready to plug into |
|
|
|
the camera's control port with a standard ethernet cable. |
