If the value in the field is not in the menu, the first menu item will be “Add XX to the list”. If this item is chosen, the number in the field will be entered into the menu. If the number is already in the menu, the first menu item allows you to remove it. Thus this menu can be easily and quickly customized.

Status Information

Camera status is shown by the color of the Camera Controller background. When the Camera is in standby, the background is gray. When the camera is running, the background is green. When the camera is not ready, the background is red. When the camera is not ready, the ARRI logo will be replaced by a message, identifying the reason for the not ready state.

To the left is the speed the camera is set at, the shutter angle (only visible on cameras with an electronic shutter) and the TOTAL footage counter. The footage counter will not be visible during external ramps.
