What is Vizrt PTSTC1 ProTek Standard for TriCaster TC1?
Vizrt PTSTC1 is a ProTek Standard support plan for the TriCaster TC1 live production system. It provides 24/7 web form and live chat access to Vizrt, software maintenance and remote system support with defined response targets. It is the entry ProTek tier for keeping an installed TriCaster TC1 under factory support.
How does Vizrt PTSTC1 ProTek Standard work?
With the plan active, your team opens cases with Vizrt through the 24/7 web form or live chat using the TC1's Support ID. Vizrt targets a response in under 4 hours for critical issues, under 8 hours for high-priority issues and under 24 hours for normal requests. Software maintenance, remote system support, Viz University, the knowledge base, community forums and Viz Minute videos are included.
Per the Vizrt distributor terms, ProTek is non-cancelable and non-refundable; coverage begins on purchase unless an alternate start date is requested, and it is invoiced immediately. Advanced Hardware Replacement (PTAHRTC1) is available as an optional extra. Contact us to confirm the coverage term.
Vizrt now lists TriCaster Prizm as the replacement for the TC1. Existing TC1 rooms often run the TC1SP Small Control Panel or LivePanel, and Premium Access for TC1 remains available for software features.
