The switch settings interact with Flair axis settings as follows:

FWD (Forward) - The control will operate using the direction
that you have set Flair.

OFF - The control will be inactive.

REV (Reverse) - The control will operate in the opposite sense
to whatever direction you have set in Flair.
Using the Scaling Switches
SCALE switches on the Mimic Handwheels control the general speed of
the axis movement when using the wheels. SCALE switches allow for
normal axis control (1x), twice as fast (2x) or four times as fast (4x).
Using a FIZ pot
If you plug a FIZ pot ( F ocus- I ris- Z oom) into the handwheels, you
identify it by the name of the connector that you attached it to, for
example Zoom. You assign it to an axis by using the Flair Show Mimic
feature.
If your FIZ pot moves the axis in the wrong direction then you need to
first make sure the associated lens axis moves in the correct direction
relative to its axis values in Flair Axis Setup dialog box, then adjust the
direction setting of the FIZ pot control for that axis.
A FIZ pot differs from the controls on your Mimic Handwheels, in that a
FIZ pot has hard stops that limit its rotation range to about 355°. This has
several consequences, described below.
You might reach the FIZ pot hard stop before you reach the soft limit of
its assigned axis. If this happens you can do the following:
Note
The mode that Wheels would be used in is usually Encoder Pos,
whereas the Focus Pot would be used in Encoder Pos, Encoder Vel or
Encoder Pot. Any Zoom controller would be used in Speedboat
mode.
