LONG pressing the gimbal thumb

button switches operating modes

from normal to friction, and back

again.

Normal mode

simulates a

traditionally balanced Steadicam,

returning to a trimmed tilt angle.

Volt displays solid green LEDs.

Friction mode

holds the sled tilt,

and requires force to change tilt

position, like a fluid head.

Volt displays pulsing green LEDs.

SHORT pressing the gimbal

thumb button creates a tilt trim

in normal mode.

Hold the sled at your desired

tilt angle, and short press the

button. The new trim is memorized

immediately. This can be done on

the fly, even during a shot, a huge

benefit to your operating.

WARNING:

Use the Tiffen Padded Dock to protect Volt electronics, as well as make

docking and balancing easier. Other methods of docking may damage the unit!
