Programmable Response Module
The Programmable Response Module (PRM) is designed to provide automated camera
control of a student camera in a classroom environment. Through the use of “press-to-talk”
microphones, the camera can be automatically positioned on an individual student when they
wish to speak.
ParkerVision’s Low Profile Microphones are recommended for better camera control.
“Voice-activated” microphones may pick up background noise and cause unwanted
camera motion.
The PRM works on a first-come, first served basis, so when two or more students activate
their microphones at the same time, the first microphone activated will get control of the
camera. Once a student has activated the camera, all others are LOCKED out, except the
master override microphone. When the student is finished speaking, the PRM will take the next
microphone in line. After all the microphones become inactive, the camera will return to a
wide-angle shot of the classroom. This can be customized and is stored in Location Preset #2.
Camera Control Keypad
The included Camera Control Keypad gives you the ability to control the camera’s pan and tilt
movement, focus, and IMAGE, as well as store and recall up to 125 camera presets.
See the included Camera Control Keypad Operations Manual for information on setup,
configuration and use of the keypad.
Power Supply
The Included Power Supply enables use with 120-240VAC, 50/60 Hz sources.
