Important Instructions

If exposure compensation is not possible with the set options – e.g. adjusting the iris cannot be compensated for at the same time by the iris – the WRC-1 displays the message ‘NO FUNC’ (no function) in the main menu.

The camera can still be run for test purposes even if the READY LED on the WRC-1 lights up red or flashes. In this case, however, the exposure may not comply with the values set in the in the WRC-1.

In order to avoid inconstant exposure, all adjustment processes and ramps under 6 fps are started in the camera’s dark phase. At these speeds, brief delays of up to 0.7 seconds at 1 fps may occur until the adjust- ment or the ramp is started.

A non-linar phase is integrated into those adjustment processes and ramps which run at speeds of under 4 fps to avoid inconstant exposures. As a result the adjusted parameters do not move continuously.

In order to operate the WRC-1 the following EPROM versions must be used:

WMU-1: ........................................

01.50 or higher

UMC-1: ..........................................

01.50 or higher

ARRIFLEX 435 ....................................

2.4 or higher

Please contact your nearest ARRI dealer or one of the service stations to update the EPROMs or to acquire the latest software version.

As the end-stops of the iris ring on the ARRIMACROS are changed with the focusing action, the ARRIMACROS may not be used with the LCS or the WRC-1 system.
