External Sync
Two ALEXA cameras can be synced on their sensor readout so their
images are created at exactly the same time. Choose between "Off" for
single camera mode, "Master" for the master camera and "Slave" for
the slave camera. Cameras must be connected via EXT-CC cable.

Firmware
• Select update file: If an SD card containing update files is inserted
in the camera, you can select an update file from the list and
perform an update. Start the update procedure by pressing the
two lower outer screen buttons simultaneously. DO NOT
INTERRUPT THE UPDATE ONCE IT HAS STARTED. MAKE SURE
THE CAMERA POWER SUPPLY WILL REMAIN SUFFICIENT FOR
THE DURATION OF THE UPDATE (APP. 5-10 MINUTES).
Note: On rare occasions, the update process can fail. If the update procedure
fails, try it again until you succeed.
