Remote Zoom/Focus URSA Broadcast G2 from Control Room?

Hello,

I've searched everywhere, but I couldn't find much information. I have several Broadcast G2 cameras, and I'm looking to extend my zoom and focus demand controls over a 100m distance to operate them from the control room using handles. Controlling zoom and focus from the ATEM software isn't very precise or responsive for live multicam productions.

I know that USB doesn't work over such a long distance, so I was wondering if converting USB-C to RS (232 or 485) could be a viable solution? I would have preferred to connect the zoom/focus handles directly to the ATEM software, but it seems that this isn't possible.

What do you think? Any ideas?

Thanks for your time!

Cyanview has an option to connect the Zoom remote / Focus remote to their Shading panel by USB. They can control an Atem / Camera..

Not a cheap solution but its a solution.

you can try something like an ethernet USB extender, I use it for some other solutions, I think it will work for this if you find the correct module

I use Adderlink and Visionary 4K KVMs. Run the VF into the box and one could control the cam from anywhere on the network.

Good Luck

We are developing a software solution for this. Makes the BMD Cameras controllable from BMD demands and even PTZ controllers. You can ping me a direct message if you want to try the beta
