Overview
The Angekis Mission Control Keyboard is a multi-function joystick controller for PTZ cameras, letting one operator manage up to seven cameras from a single desk. It supports networked and analog control, with LAN, RS232, RS422 and RS485 ports and protocols including VISCA over IP, PELCO-D and ONVIF. It suits hybrid lecture theatres, broadcast rooms and security control points in Qatar that run several cameras.
What the Mission Control Keyboard does
The Angekis Mission Control Keyboard is a dedicated joystick controller for PTZ cameras. An operator uses the stick to pan, tilt and zoom a camera while watching the picture, and the same unit switches between up to seven cameras. It is built for video conferencing, livestreaming, broadcast production and surveillance, where one person needs to frame several cameras quickly without moving between machines.
Control ports and protocols that matter
The keyboard offers LAN, RS232, RS422 and RS485 control ports, so it can work with cameras on an IP network or with cameras wired for traditional serial control. The RJ45 network connection supports data transfer speeds up to 1,000 Mbps. On the protocol side it supports VISCA Serial, PELCO-P, PELCO-D, VISCA over IP, VISCA TCP, VISCA UDP, ONVIF and NDI, which covers serial-controlled cameras as well as networked ones.
Running several cameras from one desk
Dedicated CAM buttons let the operator switch between cameras instantly. Each camera can store its own custom programmable preset positions, so a framing for the presenter, the audience or the whiteboard can be recalled with one press. Manual controls remain available for fine adjustment, which suits experienced operators, while the setup is simple enough for a staff member who runs the room only occasionally.
Where it fits in Qatar
- University lecture theatre in Education City: a lecturer and a technician share one keyboard to frame the lecturer, the whiteboard and the room audience during a hybrid class with students joining from abroad.
- Ministry boardroom in West Bay: a meeting that links Doha with teams in other cities uses presets for the head table, the presentation screen and wide room shots.
- Media production studio in Msheireb: a livestream operator switches between several cameras during a panel discussion, recalling each speaker's position without re-aiming by hand.
- Logistics yard near the Industrial Area: a security desk monitors several PTZ cameras across a large site from one control point.
What to plan before ordering
Confirm the protocol and port each camera uses, because the keyboard supports several options and each camera must match one of them. Decide whether control will run over the network through the RJ45 connection or over serial cabling. Map the keyboard position, the cable route to each camera and the number of cameras assigned to it, up to seven. SmartRooms Qatar offers a free site survey before installation, and quotations are usually issued within one working day. Government and school buyers can issue a purchase order (LPO) or respond to a Monaqasat tender, and we deliver to all eight municipalities of Qatar.

What is the Angekis Mission Control Keyboard used for?
It is a joystick controller that lets an operator pan, tilt and zoom PTZ cameras. Video conferencing rooms, livestream and broadcast setups, and surveillance installations use it to frame shots from one control point. It combines manual control with programmable presets, so it suits both routine meetings and live production in Doha.
How many cameras can one keyboard control?
Up to seven cameras. The CAM control buttons switch between them instantly, so a lecture theatre with a front camera, a wide camera and a whiteboard camera can be run from one desk. If a room needs more than seven cameras, SmartRooms Qatar can discuss an additional control plan as part of the quotation.
Which control protocols does it support?
The keyboard supports VISCA Serial, PELCO-P, PELCO-D, VISCA over IP, VISCA TCP, VISCA UDP, ONVIF and NDI. Before ordering, check which protocol your existing or planned cameras use, and send the camera models with your quote request so compatibility can be confirmed.
What control ports does it have?
It has LAN, RS232, RS422 and RS485 control ports. The LAN port suits cameras connected to an IP network, while the serial ports suit cameras controlled over traditional cabling. Choose the port that matches each camera's control interface, and map cable routes during the free site survey.
Can it control cameras over an IP network?
Yes. The adaptive RJ45 network connection supports data transfer speeds up to 1,000 Mbps, and the keyboard supports VISCA over IP, VISCA TCP, VISCA UDP, ONVIF and NDI. This suits a university or ministry where the keyboard and networked PTZ cameras share one local network, provided the network and cabling are designed correctly.
Does it support analog camera control as well?
The manufacturer describes the keyboard as supporting both networked and analog controls. Networked control runs through the LAN port, and the RS232, RS422 and RS485 ports give you serial connection options. Confirm the control type of your existing cameras before ordering, so the right port is specified.
Can non-specialist staff operate it?
The manufacturer describes the setup as simple and intuitive, so a staff member in a school or office can run routine meetings without deep camera knowledge. Experienced operators still get manual controls for finer framing. Agree with the installer in advance which staff member will manage the saved presets.
Can I save camera positions for different meetings?
Yes. Each camera supports custom programmable preset PTZ options, so you can store framings for the presenter, the audience or the whiteboard and recall them with one press. In a Doha boardroom that hosts recurring meetings, the head table and screen shots return every time without re-aiming the camera by hand.
How does it suit a lecture theatre in Education City?
It suits hybrid lectures that need the lecturer, the screen and the room audience framed at the same time. With up to seven cameras on one keyboard, a technician or lecturer can switch between a front shot, a wide shot and a close-up, recalling saved presets for each. The free site survey can plan camera positions around the room layout.
Is it suitable for livestreaming and broadcast studios?
Yes, livestreaming and broadcasting are named applications for this keyboard. A media studio in Msheireb can run a panel discussion with several PTZ cameras, switching with the CAM buttons and recalling each speaker's preset, so the operator concentrates on the programme. Confirm the camera protocol matches the keyboard before purchase.
Can it be used for surveillance across a large site?
Surveillance is one of the applications the manufacturer lists. A logistics yard near the Industrial Area, or a site in Mesaieed or Ras Laffan, could place several PTZ cameras under one security desk, with the keyboard covering up to seven of them. Because dust and heat matter outdoors, confirm the cameras' own environmental specifications with the SmartRooms Qatar team before choosing their locations.
What should I prepare before requesting a quote?
Prepare the model of each PTZ camera, the control protocol and port each one uses, and the number of cameras to link to this keyboard. SmartRooms Qatar offers a free site survey, and quotations are usually issued within one working day. Government and school buyers can issue an LPO or reference a Monaqasat tender, and we deliver to all eight municipalities of Qatar.
