r-THREE
Advanced Operations
None of the features described in this section are needed to
remotely control your cameras with your
r-THREE
System.
These features will allow you to configure and run your
system to your individual needs.
You may want:
•
the Tilt joystick to tilt up when the joystick is pushed
forward.
•
the camera closer to the subject to pan at a slower speed.
•
the exposure on your remote camera to be adjusted when
lighting changes.
These are just a few of advanced system features that can be
extremely powerful, flexible and invaluable.
The
r-THREE
System’s advanced features are built around
three modes – Time Code Mode, SYS MODE and CAM
Mode. Time Code Mode as shown previously on Picture 1b
continuously updates the state of the system with time code
information, battery state, current pan speed, and focus
state. The SYS MODE (details follow) allows the system to
be uniquely configured for a particular shoot or for your
particular needs for things like joystick responsiveness,
maximum speed for pan or zoom, etc. And finally the CAM
MODE (details follow) allows you to still have the camera
features but from a remote location for such things as the
camera menu, backlight, exposure, etc.
No matter what mode you are in, the status lights on the
r-
THREE
Control Head are continuously being updated so that
you can monitor the state of each remote camera.
