Digital Watchdog MPTZ30X Vs Axis P5415-E?

Anyone have any thoughts on use of the Digital Watchdog MPTZ30X PTZ versus AXIS P5415-E PTZ? I'm considering them for a system to be designed with a DW NVR. There are 2 PTZs required for exterior use at a recycling facility so I'm interested in any experiences that others may have had with either of these .

Thanks,

UD1 we have two DWC-MPTZ30X on our  demo system if you would like to check it out. I can give you cloud access if you  would like.

BlackJack NVR or VMAX IP Plus?

I’ll defer to Patrick on this one.  I don’t think there’s a 30X on the VIP+ demo site.

I actually would like to play with it even though Im not the OP. Once of the big issues I have with blackjack/Nx is the terrible PTZ control. Im wondering if theyve done a better job with their own PTZ.

Multiple methods of controlling the DW PTZ w/ Spectrum vs 3rd party PTZs.  On 3rd party you only have one method to drive it...let’s call that periscope control.  With Spectrum + DW PTZ, you get periscope control, vector-driven/point and click control, and “draw a box to zoom” control.  Get with Matt Martinez, (or Patrick Kelly, above) he can get you a log in to the DW demo site.

Hi Patrick,
Thank you for the offer to try the MPTZ30X out.

And Thanks to Armando and M#2 for the feedback as well.
