ISO setting
When using AatonCode in Penelope, the ISO setting must be adjusted to the
exposure index of the film stock being used. The ISO selection will insure that
the timecode matrix recorded on the edge of the film in the gate will be
exposed at an appropriate and useable level.
If AatonCode is not running in the camera, the setting of the ISO will have no
effect.
Press the «set» and then the «iso» key to adjust the
ISO
setting. Make your
selection between 25 and 1000
ISO
, by rotating the «jog» wheel, or by toggling
the «up» or «down» key.
If the
ISO
selector is adjusted while the camera is in
TEST
or
RUN
mode, the
correction will not take place until the next camera start.
Camera preset (SYNC) speed
The default mode of the control panel will automatically display the camera
speed selection, whether it be in
SYNC
or
VAR
mode, when the camera is
powered but not running. When the camera is turned on, the actual running
speed to the .01 frame is displayed.
To adjust the preset speed,press the «set» key, then the «sync» key. Make your
selection of stepped crystal speed between 6 and 50 fps by rotating the «jog»
wheel, or by toggling the «up» or «down» key. Afterward, pressing the «set» or
«exit» key will validate your selection.
