ARRI WRC-2 instruction manual Introduction

Ramp Compensation with and without LDS Lenses: The WRC-2 can automatically compensate speed and iris ramps. In order to compensate the ramps by the iris, a CLM-1 or CLM-2 motor has to be attached to the camera and the mounted lens has to be selected in the WRC-2. This is done automatically when using LDS lenses (Master Prime or LDS Ultra Prime). For other lenses an Iris Table can be easily created following a few steps in the Lens Manager. The lens can then be stored in the WRC-2 internal memory.

Modular System

The WRC-2 works with the ARRI Wireless Remote Control system and attaches to the Wireless Main Unit WMU‑2 and WMU-3.

It can be wired to an ARRIFLEX or ARRICAM either directly or via a Wireless Handgrip Attachmend WHA–2 or WHA-3 using a standard LCS cable.

The knob module can be removed to keep the unit as small as possible, if desired.
