SKAARHOJ DEVICE CORES
Device: Sony SRG 300
Introduction
A large number of parameters can be controlled on the Sony SRG 300cameras.
This integration was done using Sony SRG 300 software version 1.0.
Please see the "PTZ Manual" at https://www.skaarhoj.com/support/manuals/ to learn more about PTZ
control in general from SKAARHOJ controllers and in particular network recommendations.
In this manual it is worth noticing that one should not add additional Device Cores to control multiple
cameras. This is possible from the same Device Core but proper steps should be ensured (consecutive IP
addresses on the cameras) for a good user experience.
Number of Cameras possible to control
Please notice from the Sony SRG 300 Device Core it is possible to control up 7 cameras. In general this is
the limit for our VISCA over IP Device Cores and our integration have not been tested above 7 cameras. If
you want to control more than 7 cameras you will need to add an additional Device Core and configure
the controller accordingly. None of our default configuration utilities 2 x Sony SRG 300 Device Cores. As
we have never tested with more than 7 cameras, we do not know how performance and stability will be in
such a configuration setup. We recommend only having 1 x Sony SRG 300 Device Core installed per
controller.
