• Press the MODE button in the main menu to enter the
first submenu. The limit values for the minimum and
maximum camera speed can be defined.
The first display line shows the start value of the
camera speed, and the second line the value at the
end of the ramp.
• Press the SEL button for longer than 2 seconds.
The first digits in the first display line flash.
The required value can now be set using the handwheel.
Press the SEL button again to switch to the next digits.
The first digits are confirmed, and the decimal positions
are set to ‘0’ by pressing the SET button. The values in
the second display line can be set accordingly.
• Press the MODE button to go to the next submenu.
The limit values for the shutter angle can be defined.
The shutter angle is automatically adjusted by the WRC-1
to compensate the exposure while the camera speed is
ramped. One of the two limit values (minimum or
maximum shutter angle, depending on the adjustment
direction of the camera speed) 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 shutter
angle value flashes in the first or second display line.
This can now be set using the handwheel. The auto-
matically calculated other limit value is shown in the
other display line. Press the SEL button again to switch
to the next digit. The shutter angle value is confirmed,
and the decimal is set to ‘0’, by pressing the SET button.
The minimum shutter angle (smallest shutter angle)
corresponds to the selected minimum camera speed.
If the compensation range available with the shutter
angle is exceeded, the READY LED flashes green
and the warning ‘ANGLE RANGE’ flashes on the
display after returning to the main menu. The limit
values for the shutter angle or the camera speed
must be corrected!
The camera can still be started for test purposes
in spite of the flashing warning. However, the
exposure may be incorrect!
