• Press the MODE button in the main menu to enter the

first submenu. The limit values for the minimum and
maximum shutter angle can be defined.
The first display line shows the start value of the shutter
angle, and the second line the value at the end of the
ramp.

• Press the SEL button for longer than 2 seconds.

The shutter angle value in the first display line flashes.
The required value can now be set using the handwheel.
Press the SEL button again to switch to the next digit.
The first digits are confirmed, and the decimal is set to
‘0’ by pressing the SET button. The values in the
second display line can be set accordingly.

If the compensation range available with the
iris ring is exceeded, the READY LED flashes
green and the warning ‘IRIS RANGE’ flashes on
the display after returning to the main menu.
The settings for the iris or the shutter angle must
be corrected accordingly! The camera can still
be started for test purposes in spite of the
flashing warning. However, the exposure may
be incorrect!

• Press the MODE button to go to the next submenu.

The limit values for the aperture can be defined.
The iris is automatically adjusted by the WRC-1 to
compensate the exposure, while the shutter angle is
ramped. One of the two limit values (minimum or
maximum aperture, depending on the adjustment
direction of the shutter angle) can be defined; the other
limit value is automatically calculated by the WRC-1.
Press the SEL button for longer than 2 seconds.
Depending on the definable limit value, the T-stop
value flashes in the first or second display line. This
can now be set using the handwheel. The automatically
calculated other limit value is shown in the other display
line. Press the SEL button again to switch to the decimal.
The T-stop value is confirmed, and the decimal is set to
‘0’, by pressing the SET button.
