Installing the Z100 Camera into the Housing
Secure the camera
to the tray with the thumbscrew. Tighten snugly but do not over
tighten. If necessary use a coin to tighten. The camera should be secure to the tray
with no play or movement.
Position the camera
to enter the housing but do not insert.
Plug the mic connector
(optional) into XLR channel 1 at this time. The connection
is found at the right side in front of the of the grip handle. Note that an adapter is
used between the 3.5mm mic plug and XLR connector.
Carefully slide camera on its mount plate
into the front housing half. You will
initially need to tilt camera clockwise so the camera’s LCD clears the housing. It
should insert without obstruction and mate with the alignment collar found just behind
the port opening. Be sure the mount tray latches are held to the sides of the tray
during insertion.
If there is obstruction, slide the camera back and look carefully for the obstruction. It
is most likely a control not fully retracted.
Secure camera to the tray
with the thumbscrew.
