Proaim Drive One Wireless Follow focus (FF-WRLS-DR-ONE)

To set up the limits with maximum travel available, first erase both limits. With the gears disengaged, turn
the lens to your preferred end and rotate the motor using the transmitter to the same end. Engage the lens
to the drive gear. Wind the lens back the other way to check that the motor does not outrun the lens. If it
does, set the limit using the appropriate button in the normal way. It is not necessary to have both limits set
when setting up the motor limits in this way.
