In the user mode, all adjustments are not carried out linearly within the adjustment time, as in the other WRC modes. For this reason, ramp durations may be different, compared to those in the other WRC modes.

The main menu shows the symbol ’ ) ’ in the first line of the display for adjusting the shutter angle (if controlled by the WRC-1) and the currently adjusted T-stop. The currently adjusted mirror shutter angle (if controlled by the WRC-1) can be shown in the first display line by pressing the SET button. The currently adjusted camera speed is displayed in the second line.

The display shows full T-stops followed by the tenth of a T-stop. Example: T-stop 2.8 plus half a T-stop is shown as 2.8_5. The tenths of a T-stop are linearly divided between the two full T-stop positions.

The ‘PROG’ symbol indicates that a time-controlled ramp function has been selected.

Note

The following warnings may be displayed:

 

‘IRIS TBL’ – a valid iris table has not yet been

 

activated;

 

readings with ‘NO’ in the first display line

 

indicate that the selected function is currently

user mode

not available (example: ‘NO IRIS’ although the iris control is activated on the WRC-1, the iris motor has not yet been connected); readings with ‘RANGE’ in the second display line indicate that the adjustment range of a parameter has been exceeded (example: the selected speed is not available with this camera); readings with ‘OFF’ in the first display line indicate that this function is deactivated on the camera (example: shutter angle of the 435 is set manually = ‘OFF ANGLE’).

Correct parameters must be set before the camera is started!
