Calibrating Iris Position (F.I.Z. Lens type only)
The section is only relevant when calibrating a
“F.I.Z”
lens
TYPE
with the optional
MMX
unit so if you do not have this configuration then you can skip this page.
When calibrating a
“F.I.Z.”
lens
TYPE,
the
CALIBRATION
file consists of five “
TRACKS”
with the first four being for focus at different focal lengths and the fifth being for the
calibration of the Iris position.
The
F-STOP CALIBRATION
MENU
is invoked after the first four
“TRACKS”
have been
completed.
To calibrate the
F-STOP,
press the
A
and
B
buttons on the
R1 Controller
to indicate the
value that you wish to use and then use the
JOY UP
and
JOY DOWN
keys to drive the iris
control of the lens via the motor attached to PORT 3 of the
MMX
to the corresponding
position.
When you have set the correct position, pressing
C
on the
R1 Controller
will store the
position and you repeat this process for the other
F-STOPS.
With all
F-STOPS
calibrated, you can then press the
D
button on the
R1 Controller
which
will write the
CALIBRATION
file for the whole lens setup and reboot the AFX.
When you are using a
“F.I.Z”
, type lens with the AFX you can control switching to the next
F-STOP
in either direction by pressing the
A
and
B
buttons on the
R1 Controller
when
the AFX is in
COMMAND
mode and the currently set
F-STOP
will be displayed in both
the
COMMAND
and
FOCUS
screens.
