Speed Control Box (SCB)
The Speed Control Box integrates three main features into one accessory:
The speed control feature allows the setting of the camera speed with
0.001 fps accuracy, to switch from forward to reverse run and to perform
simple 1 step speed ramps with or without exposure compensation. The
iris control feature allows for iris compensated speed or shutter ramps
when a LDS lens and the Lens Data Box are present. The synchronization
feature synchronizes the camera to an external source, e.g. to a video
monitor. A RUN button makes it possible to start and stop the camera
from its right side or remotely. With the BRIGHT button the brightness
of all LED displays on the camera can be adjusted.
Compatibility: The SCB attaches directly to the Studio camera or to the
Remote Control Station without tools, using a quick release mechanism.
A connection to Studio or Lite camera with Remote Cable KC-65 (3m/9ft)
or KC-69 (15m/45ft) is also possible. The cable drum KC-73 (50m/150ft)
can be used for additional extension.
The Manual Control Box has to be removed to attach or remove the
Speed Control Box from the Studio camera.
For the SYNC function, the existing ARRI External Synchronization Unit
pickup and the new ARRICAM ESU cable KC-66 (10m/33ft) can be used
to sense the sync signal from Cathode Ray Tubes (CRT) monitors. For
synchronizing two or more cameras the Camera Sync Cable KC-78-S
connects the CAC connector of the master camera to the SYNC IN
connector on the SCB of the slave camera.

Manual Control Box (MCB)
With this box camera speed or shutter angle can be changed on the fly,
just by turning a hand dial. If used without the Speed Control Box,
camera speed and shutter can be set over the whole available range. If
used with the Speed Control Box, the range from slowest and fastest
fps can be limited, and manual speed/exposure or shutter/iris (depth of
field) ramps can be performed.
Compatibility: This box attaches directly to the Studio camera or the
Remote Control Station, and can be connected to the Studio or Lite camera
with the MCB Cable Adapter and the Speed Control Box Remote Cable
KC-65 (3m/9ft) or KC-69 (15m/45ft), with or without the 50m/150ft
Cable Drum KC-73.
The Manual Control Box has to be removed to attach or remove the
Speed Control Box from the Studio camera. If a magazine is attached in
back load position to the Studio camera, the magazine has to be removed
before the Manual Control Box can be attached or removed.
K2.54021.0 Manual Control Box
MCB Cable Adapter
The MCB Cable Adapter can be used to control the ARRICAM Studio
or Lite remotely with the Manual Control Box or Timing Shift Box.
Compatibility: Manual Control Box or Timing Shift Box are attached to
the MCB Cable Adapter with two screws (use 3mm hex driver). The adapter
can then be connected to the camera CAC connector with the Speed Control
Box Remote Cable KC-65 (3m/9ft) or KC-69 (15m/45ft). The optional
Cable Drum KC-73 extends the whole setup another 50m/150ft.
