OVERVIEW

The 19″PTZ Teleprompter from lkan is a professional solution for teleprompting with PTZ cameras. The package provides an extra-wide hood assembly to allow considerable movement of the camera within the wide beam splitter glass. The PTZ Teleprompter features a 19 1000 cd/m? monitor, 70/30 20″ -wide beamsplitter glass, and  a 25′ reading range. The teleprompter is designed for use with a wide range of PTZ cameras, as the wide beamsplitter provides for a wide amount of left-right panning. The  teleprompter includes a base system that can be easily shifted forward and backwards, which enables mounting the camera to the prompter without requiring counterweights.
Please note that the PTZ4900S-PTZ includes parts to build two types of teleprompter systems, a standard 19″ Teleprompter that is compatible with various types of  mirrorless and broadcast cameras, and a 19″ PTZ teleprompter that is compatible with a wide range of PTZ cameras. This Quick Start Guide will show you how to set up the  19″ Teleprompter for PTZ cameras. For instructions on how to set up the PT 4900 for broadcast or mirrorless cameras, please refer to the PT 4900 Quick Start Guide  on our website.

Step 4
Put the washers on before tightening the screws. The washers and 4 additional screws are inside a bag on the bottom foam.

Step 5
After the monitor mounts are attached, adjust the 15mm rods to accommodate the monitor. Leave about 1 inch of room for the teleprompter bracket.

Step 12
Mount your own tripod plate to the bottom plate by aligning the 1/4-20 and/or 3/8-16 screws and fastening them to the Bottom Plate. It is recommended that you connect  your tripod plate to front of the Bottom Plate so that you can balance your teleprompter easier. Once your tripod plate is connected to the Bottom Plate, mount the tripod  plate to your tripod head.
