Canon RC-IP100 Touchscreen PTZ Joystick Controller

The Canon RC-IP100 is a dedicated hardware controller built for operators managing fleets of Canon PTZ cameras in live production, broadcast or house-of-worship environments. It replaces software panels with a tactile joystick and a 7-inch touchscreen so camera moves stay precise when the programme is on air. The unit speaks Canon's XC protocol over IP and falls back to the legacy NU protocol over RS-422 for older models such as the CR-N300 and CR-N500.

Capacity and headroom

A single RC-IP100 can address up to 99 cameras over the XC protocol and stores up to 100 presets per camera for instant recall of framing and picture settings. The trace function records complex multi-axis moves so they can be replayed with one button press during a live show. When the camera count exceeds 99 or when a facility mixes non-Canon PTZ heads, a second controller or a software layer becomes necessary.

Thermals, noise and power

The controller draws modest power from its external supply and runs silently because it has no internal fans or moving parts beyond the joystick mechanism. In a typical control-room climate the chassis stays cool to the touch during multi-hour productions. The dual RJ-45 ports — one for XC IP traffic and one for RS-422 serial — keep cabling tidy without adding heat-generating network switches at the operator position.

Questions about this item

Will the RC-IP100 control my older CR-N300 and CR-N500 cameras alongside newer IP models?

Yes, the RC-IP100 manages up to 99 cameras over IP using Canon XC protocol and simultaneously controls legacy PTZ cameras such as the CR-N300 and CR-N500 through the RS-422 serial port.

How can I verify the 7-inch touchscreen and joystick are responding correctly after setup?

Use the touchscreen menu to pan, tilt, and zoom a connected camera; smooth movement and live preview on the display confirm the controller is operating as intended.

What cables come in the box and which must I purchase separately for IP and serial connections?

The package includes the controller and power supply; RJ45 network cables for the two LAN ports and an RS-422 serial cable for legacy cameras are not included and must be bought separately.
