Software 2.0 for Bluetooth Handset
More control. Every move. Great camera movement depends on precision, reliability and complete control. Panther Software 2.0 brings all three together in a smarter and more intuitive operating experience. With 100 speed levels and 100 ramp levels, every movement can be adjusted with exceptional accuracy – from the subtlest start to a perfectly controlled stop. Improved Bluetooth range and connection stability provide greater freedom on set, while optimized battery management helps extend operating time and protects the system from deep discharge. Faster limit settings, automatic reconnection and an improved Motion Program workflow reduce unnecessary steps and keep your attention where it belongs: on the shot. Smoother operation. Smarter performance. More confidence in every take.
Key Features
1. IMPROVED BLUETOOTH PERFORMANCE
Extended Bluetooth range and enhanced connection stability ensure more reliable wireless operation. The software dynamically adjusts the transmission power whenever additional signal strength is required.
2. AUTOMATIC HANDSET SHUTDOWN
The handset switches off automatically to protect its battery from deep discharge. Improved reconnection, restart and timeout behavior also ensures faster and more reliable operation.
3. OPTIMIZED BATTERY MANAGEMENT
Refined battery monitoring provides a more accurate indication of the Dolly’s remaining battery capacity and helps maximize operating time.
- 100% battery level: above 25.6 V
- 0% battery level: below 23.4 V
4. SMOOTHER DRIVING PERFORMANCE
The expanded speed range provides significantly finer control over every movement. Motor preloading when the brake is released also enables smoother starts and a more responsive driving experience.
5. MORE INTUITIVE OPERATION
Software 2.0 makes essential functions faster and easier to access:
- 100 speed levels
- 100 ramp levels
- Quick limit activation and deactivation
- Remaining-time display in the Motion Program
6. EXTENDED BRAKE OPEN TIME
The Brake Open function can now be activated for either five minutes or continuously, providing greater flexibility during setup and operation.
7. PRECISE SPEED CONTROL
The speed scale has been expanded from 5 to 100 levels, allowing substantially finer and more precise adjustments.
Press the Speed button together with the corresponding arrow button to adjust the value. Holding the buttons activates fast scrolling for quicker changes.
8. PRECISE RAMP CONTROL
The ramp scale has been expanded from 4 to 100 levels, providing much more precise control over acceleration and deceleration.
Press the Ramp button together with the corresponding arrow button to adjust the value. Holding the buttons activates fast scrolling for quicker changes.
9. FASTER LIMIT CONTROL
Upper and lower limits can now be set, deactivated or deleted more quickly and intuitively by using the Limit button together with the corresponding arrow button.
For enhanced operational safety, active limits always take priority over Motion and Marks programs.
10. HOT PLUGGING
The handset cable can be connected or disconnected during operation without restarting the Dolly. Switching between wired and wireless operation is therefore faster and more convenient.
