Connecting the AQ-EC1 Extension Control Unit (Option)

Connecting the AQ-EC1 extension control unit (option) allows a portion of the camera section functions to be operated by remote control.

When the AQ-EC1 is connected and the POWER switches of the unit and AQ-EC1 are set to ON, the unit automatically enters remote control mode.

The handling instructions included with the AQ-EC1 describe operations for when the AQ-EC1 is connected to an AQ series digital camera.

When the AQ-EC1 is connected to the AJ-D700, some functions differ, and some features cannot be used.

<Notes>

The POWER switches of the unit and AQ-EC1 must be set to OFF before the 6-pin cable is connected or disconnected.

All adjustments and settings made using the switches and controls other than the menu setting section of the AQ-EC1 are erased when the unit’s POWER switch is set to OFF. Also, adjust- ments and settings made using the AQ-EC1 cannot be written to setup cards. However, when the AQ-EC1 is connected again, these settings return to the AQ-EC1 settings.

(Menu contents set with the menu setting section are saved.)

The functions of the AQ-EC1 are limited as follows. The STORE switch does not function.

(If the menu settings are changed while the AQ-EC1 is connected to the AJ-D700, the new menu settings are saved automatically as soon as the changes are made.)

Note that the AQ-EC1 gain switch displays -3, 0 and 9 correspond to L, M and H, and the OUTPUT switch settings CAMERA, TEST and BAR to CAM/AUTO KNEE ON, CAM/AUTO KNEE OFF and BAR for each main unit.

The Synchro scan and Super V modes cannot be used while the AQ-EC1 is connected to the unit.
