Preparing the Camera and LCD
User buttons.
Each camera requires specific settings within the menu for
operation with Pro Action.
DSMC.
Two user buttons are available on Pro Action for DSMC. These are
user 1/2 located on the brain, front of the media bay.
If using a DSLR lens, these should be assigned iris up / down.
DSMC2.
With the Sidekick module installed, 6 user buttons are available on
Pro Action. These are user 1/2 and ABCD buttons on Sidekick.
As with DSMC, user 1/2 should be assigned
iris
up/down if using a DSLR
lens. ABCD can be assigned useful things like
PRESETS
or
FRAME RATE.
Mini
. Similarly, the Mini camera has three user buttons available in Pro
Action. They are located on the left front of the camera, and should be set to
iris
up/down and one other useful function such as white balance.
NOTE: by custom order, the ARRI version of the Transvideo Starlite monitor
can be supported in Pro Action, providing 4 more user buttons. Contact
Gates for more information. Details on the LCD monitor can be found here:

Record Trigger.
Pro Action provides a convenient thumb tip record trigger with a
positive tactile feedback. The RED cameras require setup to accept this trigger
signal from Pro Action. (Mini camera requires no setup).
DSMC & DSMC2.
RED firmware changes on a regular basis to provide
increased functionality. In so doing, the menu structure is subject to change,
making the following screen grabs obsolete. However the general settings
remain.
SYNC Mode.

SETUP
GPIO/SYNC

Set Sensor
Sync mode to ‘Off”
Power.
DSMC.
The Config kit includes a control head to switch Assign ABCD control
to a power-on control for DSMC. After the Master Power switch has been
activated, it is necessary to turn on the camera with this control.
DSMC2.
The SDI Jetpack has a slider switch on the top that allows the
camera to boot up when power is applied from the Master Power switch.
Check that this slider is in the proper position for auto-boot.
Mini.
To ensure the Mini camera will boot up when power is applied, simply
turn on the camera, and then remove the power connector after boot. In this
way, the camera will boot up when power is applied.
