Using a wi-fi Adapter for Remote Control of the AG-UX90 and AG-UX180
°e new AG-UX90 and AG-UX180 camcorders offer the capability of utilizing an optional
wi-fi adapter to provide remote control from an Apple iPad.
°is paper will describe the setup
procedures for getting the camera to work with the AG ROP app, the free Panasonic app for
the iPad that controls the AG-UX90 and AG-UX180 (and also the AG-DVX200).
In this paper I will outline the simplest procedure for setting up the camera and the iPad for
remote control operation.
°e necessary equipment and soſtware include:
1. °e camera (either a UX90, UX180, or DVX200)
2. °e wireless adapter (I’m using an AJ-WM50P)
3. °e Panasonic AG ROP App, available from the Apple App Store.
4. An Apple iPad to run the AG ROP App soſtware.
Note, this app works only on the
iPad, not on an iPhone.
°e Wireless Adapter
Before considering wireless remote control, you’ll first need to secure a wireless wi-fi adapter.
°e cameras themselves do not have any inherent wi-fi capability, but they can work with a
wi-fi adapter through their USB Host ports.
Panasonic has certified three wireless adapters for use with the cameras as
of the time of this writing (January 2017).
°ose adapters are the Panasonic
AJ-WM30, the AJ-WM50, and the ASUS USB-N53 (hardware version A1).
It is possible that other adapters may work, but is not guaranteed.
Check the
panasonic.com website for any updated announcements about certified net-
work adapters.
Simple Network Setup
°e networking capability built into the cameras is substantial and you can get as complex as
you want, but the process of connecting to the network can be extremely easy as well.
First: install the network adapter in the camera’s USB Host port.
°e USB Host
port is located on the right side of the viewfinder, on top of the camera, under a
door that says “USB HOST”.
Second: go into the camera’s Other Function menu, and set the
USB MODE menu item to “ON”, and the USB MODE SELECT
menu item to “HOST”.
Within a few seconds, you should see a
small “wi-fi” icon appear at the top of the screen, indicating that
the wi-fi adapter is active.
