5-9 Connecting the extension control unit (AJ-EC3E)

By connecting the AJ-EC3E extension control unit (optional accessory), some of the functions can be operated by remote control.

When the AJ-EC3E is connected and the POWER switches on the unit and AJ-EC3E are set to ON, the unit is automatically set to the remote control mode.

<Notes>

≥Before connecting or disconnecting the dedicated cable, be absolutely sure to set the POWER switches on the unit and the AJ-EC3E to OFF.

≥If the ECU DATA SAVE item on the <SW MODE> screen is set to OFF, the camera related settings among the adjustments and settings performed using the AJ-EC3E will be erased when the unit’s POWER switch is set to OFF. In addition, it will not be possible to write this data to the setup card.

It is however possible for the menu content settings to be written on the setup card.

When the unit is connected once again to the AJ-EC3E, the settings of the AJ-EC3E are restored.

≥When ON has been selected as the ECU DATA SAVE item setting on the <SW MODE> screen, the adjustments and settings performed using the AJ-EC3E will not be erased even when the unit’s POWER switch is set to the OFF position.

≥The unit’s USER switch does not function when the AJ- EC3E is connected.

≥When the AJ-EC3E is used to control the unit’s shutter, the shutter speed settings on the unit’s menu are used rather than the shutter speeds engraved on the AJ-EC3E. The correspondence between the shutter speed indications on the AJ-EC3E and the unit’s shutter speed settings are shown in the table below.
