The hardware PTZ desk for control rooms, corporate AV and multi-camera installs

A 4D joystick, a 5.5-inch screen with live video preview, PoE, tally and both IP and serial protocols: the LegioAV PTZ controller brings the physical control of a professional gallery into a compact desk at €999 ex. VAT. It drives PTZ cameras straight from a hardware surface, with no control computer required, and fits both recent camera fleets and existing serial infrastructure.

Pricing

At €999 ex. VAT, the LegioAV PTZ controller packs a 4D joystick, an integrated screen, live preview, PoE, tally and multi-protocol support into a complete desk, ready to deploy in a gallery or a fixed install.

Why choose LegioAV

Reliable physical control

A 4D joystick, a customizable 3D knob and backlit silicone buttons give the operator a real hardware control surface, more precise and more repeatable than a touch interface.

Built-in video preview

The 5.5-inch LCD shows the camera return right on the desk, which simplifies operation in a compact gallery, a corporate room or a house of worship.

Works with mixed fleets

The controller supports VISCA, VISCA over IP, VISCA TCP, ONVIF, Pelco-D and Pelco-P, over the network or serial RS-232 and RS-422/485, with NDI® HX2 and HX3 included and activated out of the box.

Designed for installation

PoE powering over a single network run, firmware updates from a USB drive and a compact desktop format (354 × 165 × 121 mm) make the install, maintenance and service straightforward.

Frequently asked questions
Is the LegioAV controller compatible with every PTZ camera?
It supports many standard market protocols: VISCA, VISCA over IP, VISCA TCP, ONVIF, Pelco-D and Pelco-P, plus RS-232 and RS-422/485 serial links. The NDI licence is included and activated out of the box on supplied units. Exact compatibility should be checked against the camera model.
Can it be used without a computer?
Yes. The LegioAV PTZ controller is a standalone hardware desk, designed to drive cameras directly from its control surface.
Is the built-in screen 4K?
No. The desk has a 5.5-inch LCD for the video return. The 4Kp30 figure refers to the decoded stream sent over the HDMI output to an external monitor, not the panel resolution.
Is NDI included?
Yes. The controllers supplied by HoriCast include the NDI licence, activated out of the box. NDI is supported in HX2 and HX3 (not full NDI).
Can it be powered over PoE?
Yes. It supports PoE powering (IEEE 802.3af), which simplifies cabling on site.
