Monitor and control Canon camera footage quickly and easily on the 7″ touch screen via IP, with up to nine cameras viewable simultaneously in different layout options. Whichever camera you choose, the touch screen automatically switches to displaying that feed in real time. Alternatively, you can send a full screen feed to an external monitor via the 12G-SDI or HDMI port.

Simple configuration without a PC

Simplified multi-camera control

Group all cameras or up to ten in a group. Implement presets for multiple PTZ cameras simultaneously and control other cameras from the PTZ and Cinema EOS ranges³ Canon's XF605 professional camcorder.
