Installation
Fitting the Light Shield Cloth
A light shield cloth must be fitted between the camera lens and the rear
of the hood to prevent light entering behind the glass. This is essential
for the prompter to display text clearly.
Different cloths are available depending on the installation:
Folding Hood Light Shield Cloth
The folding hoods have the
light shield cloth permanently
attached. There is a draw
string to shape the cloth
opening around the camera
lens.
Moulded Hood Light Shield Cloth
1.
Secure the light shield
cloth to the Velcro strips
on the rear of the hood.
2.
On light shield cloths with
the ‘keyhole’ cut out, seal
the join with the Velcro
strips on the cloth.
Fitting the Counterbalance Weights
The prompter installation must have counterbalance weights fitted to
the rear of the mounting to compensate for the front-heavy effect of the
prompter monitor and hood.
1.
Unscrew the caps from the mounting rods protruding from the rear
of the mounting plate.
2.
Carefully slide the counterbalance weights onto the rods.
CAUTION!
Ensure that the light shield cloth is only loosely
fitted around the body of the servo lens to allow it to
continue operating freely.
