Controlling the Iris

5.5.1.1Loading iris tables for Zeiss Ultra Primes, Variable Primes, High-speed, Standard or user-defined lenses

(‘TBL LOAD’)

The iris tables for the factory pre-defined lenses require that a standard gear ring is used on the lens motor (50 teeth). If other gear rings are used, the T-stop scale must be completely programmed from scratch. This also applies if a gear adapter ring is used with the lens.

The pre-defined iris tables are loaded as follows:

If ‘IRIS TBL’ flashes on the display when the WRC-1 is switched on, the MODE button must be pressed once to enter the ‘TBL LOAD’ mode.

If a lens has already been selected and the T-stops have been assigned previously, the menu for selecting the lens can be entered in the WRC rotary switch position ‘IRIS’ and the COMPENSATION rotary switch set to ‘OFF’ by pressing the MODE button three times.

Then press the SEL button. The lens type is shown in the first line of the display.
