Assembly Procedures

An 

Autocue

 On Camera Unit can be used with almost any industry-standard 

camera and tripod combination. On camera units comprise a tripod head 
attachment, prompter monitor and hood with integral two-way mirror.

Assembling and mounting your on camera unit involves:

• preparing the mounting plates and brackets
• attaching the prompter monitor
• attaching the hood and glass components
• connecting required cables
• ensuring all connections and fixings are secure.

4.1: Tripod head preparation

Autocue

 on camera units are designed to work with most standard tripods. The 

first step is to remove the camera mounting plate from the tripod head.

4.2: Autocue Wide Angle Bracket

The Wide Angle bracket consists of a square grooved length of aluminium 
extrusion, horizontal prompter display unit mounting bars, vertical hood mounting 
bars and one or two keyhole plates.
