Looking to download the right firmware for your PTZOptics camera?
PT12X-SDI/NDI-xx
8/19/2021 – SOC ver 6.3.34 (PoE)
- Increased camera security parameters
- Once this firmware is applied, presets will be stored in on-board memory, allowing the presets to remain after future firmware updates, without requiring the backup/restore function.
- Added IR address buttons to the camera’s Web Interface under “System”
- Changed the IR remote shortcut ([*] > [#] > [4]: Show camera IP address) to display the information until manually closed with the ‘Home’ button
- Removed “Auto Scan Shoot” from the camera’s OSD menu and replaced it with “Auto Inspect”. Auto Inspect will call every camera preset, in order, on repeat.
- When “Auto Inspect” is enabled, you can adjust the “Residence Time” (How long the camera will remain at a preset). Range: 1 – 60 (seconds)
- When “Auto Inspect” is enabled, you can adjust “Call Preset Speed” (How fast the camera calls each preset). Range: 1 – 24.
- Removed “Auto Focus L” from the camera’s OSD menu due to limited space in “Setup”
- Added the ability to start and stop RTMP streams without requiring a power cycle
- Added a “privacy function” that points the camera to the rear when set to Standby
