NEWTON S 10
SYSTEM OPERATION MANUAL
if the head is balanced. If the back of the head moves to the opposite side it is back heavy and the
knob should be turned clockwise. If it moves to the other side the head is front heavy and the knob
should be turned counter clockwise.
3.4.2 BALANCING WITH CAGE
Vertical and Pan Balance
Vertical and pan balancing when using a Cage is identical to when using generic mount, so see the
section above about pan balance.
Front-back and Roll Balance
Both the front-back and the roll balance needs to be simultaneously tuned when using the cage, as
both are affected by placement and orientation of the counter-weights. Start by adjusting the rough
front-back balance by moving the counter-weights and the cage clamps until you reach a position with
the desired balance. Keep the roll axis stable and rotate the tilt axis to different positions to verify
correct balance.
As a second step, rotate the counter-weights to adjust the balance in the roll axis. If you need to
rotate a lot, it could be needed to afterwards re-adjust the weights front-back to keep tilt axis balance.
3.5 POWER
3.5.1 POWERING NEWTON S
The Newton S is turned on by switching the power switch (point 12) to 1.
3.5.2 POWERING NEWTON C1
The Newton C1 has two ways of receiving power. It can either be powered by an external input (point
38) or by the internal Li-Ion battery. The Newton C1 will automatically charge the internal battery as
soon as there is external power in, no matter if it is turned on or not.
Before first use it is recommended to fully charge the internal battery. That way any accidental
disconnection of external power will not result in the Newton C1 turning off or disconnecting from
the remote head. First time it is recommended to let the Newton C1 charge for at least six hours before
use.
To turn on the Newton C1 press the power button (point 39). The same button is used to turn the
Newton C1 off.
3.6 COMMUNICATIONS
The Newton S and the Newton C1 controller has two different possible communication channels,
either the built in 2.4GHz radio modem or an Ethernet link that in turn can be transported over cable,
fiber or radio.
To use the internal radio modem, make sure correct antennas are mounted and if possible utilize
an external antenna on the Newton S mounted in a location that gives free line-of-sight between the
antenna and the Newton C1. Make sure the radio modem is enabled on both Newton S and Newton
C1 and that the units are paired as seen in section
5.4.1 .
To utilize the ethernet link for communication, establish ethernet connectivity between the Newton
S and the Newton C1 either via a direct cable

, or using any suitable ethernet infrastructure such as

If having more than 25 meters between the unit, Newton Nordic recommends either a repeater or a fiber link to ensure
signal integrity
