User reviews

When it works, itโ€™s okโ€ฆ

This app has become increasingly problematic. It stops refreshing the camera feeds with no warning and stops controlling the camera. Considering we use these cameras for livestreaming, it *needs* to work. Camera movements and switches need to be immediate

Good luck.

Unbelievably bad. Cannot maintain a connection. Constantly crashing. Gave up and just went back to the switcher.

Canโ€™t get more than camera A configured

Camera setup GUI is a mess. After setting one camera, switching to second ends up with camera one settings on top of what should be empty settings. Itโ€™s hosed at that point.

Change dip sw 4

I was having no luck with this app, but got it working; presets, zoom, etc. I have the Ethernet cable from the router plugged into the DVIP port on the camera. However, if dip switch 4 on the bottom of the PTC-280 is OFF, it will look for commands on the RS422 port. I flipped it ON and the camera started responding as expected.

Totally broken

App doesnโ€™t work half the time and the interface adjustment settings do nothing.
