.GeneralDecriptionoftheARRIFLEX1
The ARRIFLEX 416 is a lightweight, modern Super 16 lm
camera with a 35-style viewnder and a very low sound
level. A completely new lightweight ergonomic design,
integrated electronic accessories and compatibility with the
same lenses and accessories used by its 35 mm siblings
make the 416 a powerful, exible and portable Super 16
camera.
There are two models: the ARRIFLEX 416 Plus and the 416.
The 416 Plus has built-in lens motor drivers and radio
modem for wireless lens and camera control. This
eliminates add-on boxes and untidy cables.
• A sound level of less than 20dBA makes the 416 the
quietest 16 mm camera available.
• The ARRIFLEX 416 is equipped with a low-maintenance,
silent precision movement with single pull down claw
and registration pin. Pull down is pitch-adjustable for
quietest running.
• The viewnder can be rotated in two axes and can be
used on either side of the camera with full image
orientation compensation. Its optics are bright and
have a high contrast and high resolution.
The viewnder arm can be extended laterally for left
eye operation.
• The high quality IVS video assist is integrated into the
camera body.
• Speed ranges from 1 – 75 fps, forward only.
• The mirror shutter is manually adjustable to 180°,
172.8°, 150°, 144°, 135°, 90° and 45°.
• The 416‘s low prole design is substantially smaller
and lighter than its predecessors.
A comprehensive range of optical, mechanical and
electronic accessories further expands the operational
possibilities of the camera.

4.1 Packing and Transport
In order to prevent damage to the mirror
shutter, a protective cap must be in the lens
mount receptacle at all times.
When the ARRIFLEX 416 is transported or
stored without a magazine, the magazine
opening cover aphoto should be in place.
Loaded or empty magazines should only be
transported or stored with the loop protector
aphoto attached to avoid damage to the lm
stock and the magazine throat assembly.
4.2 Tripod & Remote Heads
The following tripod heads are suitable for use with the
ARRIFLEX 416:
• ARRIHEAD

4.3 Split Bridge Plates BP-10 & BP-11
The Split Bridge Plates facilitate balancing of the camera on
the tripod and elevate the 416 to proper height for the
mounting of accessories. They separate into two pieces to
allow you to quickly change between tripod and hand-held
operation. The BP-10 aphoto is designed for 19 mm
support rods, the BP-11 for 15 mm support rods. The
bridge plates consist of the Accessory Carrier, the Sled,
the Base Plate and a pair of 240 mm long Support Rods
19 mm Support rods with lengths of 165 mm, 185 mm,
340 mm and 440 mm or 15 mm diameter support rods
with lengths of 340 mm and 440 mm are available
separately as options.
Attaching the Bridge Plate to the Camera
• Separate the Accessory Carrier from the Sled
aphoto.
• Engage the two cylindrical pins on the Accessory
Carrier with the corresponding holes in the camera
base then fasten it aphoto with the slotted screw to
the 3/8-16 threaded hole in the camera base. The
clamping lever of the Accessory Carrier will be on the
camera right side.
• Screw the Wedge Plate for Base Plate onto the Base
Plate of the tripod and lock onto the tripod head.

• Slide the Sled into the dovetail-guide of the Base Plate
until the spring-loaded stop pin aphoto snaps back
audibly. The Sled‘s position can then be xed with the
clamping lever.
• Fit the camera onto the short dovetail-guide on the
Sled. Slide it forward until the spring-loaded catch
aphoto locks it in place.
• Tighten the clamping lever of the Accessory Carrier
aphoto.
• Slide the support rods into the guides and clamp.
• Equip the camera with the required accessories to
determine the centre of gravity. Loosen the sled
clamping lever, and by sliding the camera on the base
plate nd the optimum balance position. Then retighten
the clamping lever.
The accessory carrier has the same dovetail as
the bridge plate so it can be mounted to the
base plate.
If the Lightweight Support is used and
accessories are mounted to the Lightweight
Support rods these accesories will collide with
the base plate. In this conguration the
accessory carrier can not be mounted to the
base plate.

4.4 Accessory Carrier
The Accessory Carrier is a part of the BP-10 & BP-11
Split Bridge Plates. It must be tted to the camera to work
with a split bridge plate but, as its name suggests, it is
also needed for mounting the following accessories:
The 416 Shoulder Pad - SP-2
The SP-2 shoulder pad aphoto is a comfortable
sculpted pad for hand-held operation. It hinges at its front
edge to allow it to be pushed down to facilitate the
mounting and removal of magazines.

4.5 Lens Support
Heavy or long lenses require support to avoid overstressing
the camera‘s lens mount. Supporting a lens is achieved
by using either the Lens Support LS-9 (snapped onto 19
mm support rods) aphoto or the Lens Support LS-10
(pushed onto 15 mm support rods) in conjunction with a
lens support ring aphoto attached to the lens in use.
They meet and screw together at a standard height.
• Mount the LS-9 lens support onto the support rods from
above and let it click into place by applying slight pressure
or push the LS-10 onto the support rods from the front.
• Fit the appropriate support ring aphoto loosely onto
the lens. Do not tighten.
• Then slide the lens into the lens mount receptacle and
lock. It is essential that you take the weight of the lens
until the Lens Support is under the support column of
the lens support ring.
• Connect the support ring to the lens support and
tighten the knurled screw aphoto as well as the
clamping lever aphoto.
• Complete the process by tightening the clamp screw
aphoto on the support ring.
Note: Mounting the support ring on the relevant lens
is usually carried out only once. The support
ring can then remain in position on the lens.

the camera body and provides numerous possibilities for
attaching accessories. 3/8-16 inner threads allow attach-
ment in various positions.
416 Standard Camera Handle SCH-2
The 416 Standard Camera Handle is a dual post handle.
A third post can be added for extra stability when mounting
the camera in an under-slung fashion. It is mounted on
the camera using 2 (or 3) hexagonal screws aphoto.
The 416 Standard Camera Handle includes a ip-out tape
hook that can be folded away to leave a at top surface to
allow the camera to be under-slung and comfortably carried.
Various accessories can be attached using the 3/8-16 holes.

Low Mode Support Set LMS-2
The Low Mode Support Set LMS-2 aphoto is a sturdy
triple post camera handle with integrated Steadicam low
mode plate that attaches to the 416 camera body.
It consists of the Low Mode Bracket aphoto, the Low
Mode Support Handle aphoto and Low Mode Riser
aphoto. The Low Mode Bracket is mounted with 3
hexagonal screws aphoto to the 416 camera body.
The Low-Mode Handle can be attached on both the basic
Low-Mode Bracket and the Low-Mode Riser. There are three
mounting positions on the plates, one at the rear of the plate

aphoto, one position approximately 50 mm (2“) forwards
and a third approximately 100 mm (4“) forwards. The handle
can be mounted in any of the positions facing forwards or
backwards; in this way, the grip balance can be adapted
to best t the lens in use.
The Low-Mode Bracket aphoto alone offers the lowest
prole and smallest plate-to-lens distance, optimal for Steadicam
applications. It can be attached with the viewnder on the
camera; however, since the Low-Mode Bracket remains under
the level of the viewnder itself, removal of the viewnder
will be necessary in applications requiring the attachment
of a longer plate onto the Low-Mode Bracket.
With the Low-Mode Riser tted, the plate to lens distance
is increased so that a longer plate attached to the Riser
will not collide with the viewnder. This is especially useful
in the situation where rapid switching between operation
in low-mode and operation with viewnder is necessary.
A tape hook is located camera right on the Low-Mode Riser,
and both the Low-Mode Bracket and Low-Mode Riser offer
diverse attachment points for additional accessories.

416 Lightweight Support LWS-5
The 416 Lightweight Support LWS-5 is a sturdy, three point
bracket for mounting 15 mm lightweight support rods. The
LWS-5 is tted with an Accessory Rosette to replace the
camera‘s rosette which is covered when the LWS-5 is
tted aphoto.
• Fit the LWS-5 to the camera by rst engaging the two
guide pins of the upper 3/8-16 screw on the camera
right side aphoto. This will position the LWS-5 so
that the 3/8-16 screw on the front of the bracket lines
up with the threaded hole In the camera. Engage this
screw by a few threads but leave it loose aphoto.
• Tighten the two screws on the camera right side – the
lower one is accessed through a hole in the Accessory
Rosette teeth aphoto.
• Tighten the front screw.
• Slide the support rods into the guides and clamp.
Note: Due to the camera‘s small dimensions and because
the distance from the lens to the support rods is
xed, the rod clamps of the LWS-5 project below
the camera base. To mount the camera with the
LWS-5 tted on a support system such as the Steadi-
cam, it is necessary to t the 416 Riser. This
presents a at base, clear of the support rods,
with selection of threaded holes.

5.4 On-board Battery OBB-2
The OBB-2 On-Board Battery attaches directly to the camera
body by means of a quick change mechanism that can be
easily operated with one hand. The OBB-2 incorporates a
built-in power meter to indicate the state of charge, while
an extra contact in the power connector communicates this
and other information to the camera. When an OBB-2 is
connected, display Mode 3 offers the choice of showing
battery voltage (as normal) or battery capacity (in percent)
or an estimation of how many more magazines the remaining
charge can run. The OBB-2 is an intelligent 29.6 volt
Lithium-Ion battery with a capacity of 80 Watt/hours. A
fully charged OBB-2 will typically run seven magazines
and last about four hours in Standby. Although the 416
power connector has an additional contact it remains
compatible with standard ARRI 24 volt power cables.
The OBB-2 is for use with ARRIFLEX 416
cameras only.
Do not use with an extension cable as this will
prevent communication between the OBB-2 and
416. The 416 monitors the OBB-2 and prevents
it going into deep discharge.

Magazine

.Magazine
Only the SHM-3 416 Shoulder Magazine 120/400 can
be used with the ARRIFLEX 416. Magazines from the
16 SR 1, 2 & 3 cameras are not compatible.
6.1 Loading the 416 Magazine
Loading the magazine should be practised in daylight with
a piece of waste lm until the procedure can be carried out
condently in a darkroom or lm changing tent.
Cutting the lm through the middle of the perforation holes
simplies the loading process considerably. The lm head
of a fresh roll of lm is normally cut in this way.
Step 1: The Feed Side
Load the lm into the feed side in absolute darkness
(darkroom or lm changing tent).
• Remove the loop protector and lay the magazine on a
at surface with its feed side door facing upwards.
• To open the door, ip up the locking grip, depress the
safety catch and turn it counter-clockwise aphoto.
• Lift up the magazine cover and remove it by pulling the
cover to the right.

• Swing the footage counter roller arm aphoto away
from the feed side core holder until it locks in place.
• Remove the lm from the lm can and black bag.
• Remove the tape from the lm head. Ensure that the
tape is completely removed and secured out of the way.
• Place the lm roll on the core holder so that it unwinds
in the direction shown aphoto. Press it down fully.
When placing the lm on the core holder, do
not push on the lm itself as it could become
conical. Push on the lm core instead.
• Hold the lm roll still and turn the core holder until the
core holder key clicks into the key slot of the lm core.
Make sure the core holder cannot turn any further.
• Release the footage counter roller arm gently so the roller
rests on the outer surface of the lm roll. The sides of
the roller should overlap the lm roll edges aphoto.
• Push approximately 15 cm (6“) of lm into the slit at
the top of the angled transfer roller. Then thread the
lm around the guide roller.
• Hold the lm still where it enters the transfer roller and
gently back-tension the lm roll to remove any slack.
• Replace and lock the feed side magazine door, being
careful not to trap any lm in the process.
• Check if the door is properly closed before removing
the magazine from the changing tent or dark room.

Step 2: The Take-up Side
The following procedures may be carried out in the light.
• Flip the magazine over so that the take-up door is
uppermost and the top of the magazine is facing you.
The ARRI on the door will be upside down.
• Open the take-up side magazine door and latch back
the lay-on roller arm. Fit an empty lm core to the
take-up core holder making sure that the core holder
key is engaged in the key slot of the lm core.
• The lm head should be protruding from the transfer
roller aphoto. Check that it is cut squarely through a
perforation.
• Thread the lm head around the forward guide roller
as indicated inside the magazine. Without touching the
lm core, push the lm head into the upper sprocket roller
until its teeth engage in the lm perforations aphoto.
• Once the sprocket teeth have engaged in the lm
perforations, turn the lm core until the lm head
emerges from the magazine throat.
• Set the loop length by pulling the lm head away from
you and align it with the loop mark on the bottom of
the magazine aphoto. Adjust the loop length by
turning the take-up lm core.
• Now take your hand off the lm core – there is enough
inertia in the sprockets to maintain the loop length.

• Hold the lm between thumb and middle nger of your
left hand, while using your index nger to push the lm
head into the lower magazine throat slot. The angle at
which the lm enters is not as critical as it is on the old
SR magazines.
• Keep pushing the lm in with your index nger until
you see the sprockets rotate aphoto. Now take hold
of the lm core again and rotate it counter-clockwise.
This will pull the lm from the throat into the take-up
chamber.
• Thread the lm around the rear guide roller following
the path indicated in the magazine.
• Insert the lm head into the lm core and manually
wind the core holder two or three turns until the lm
winds tightly onto the core.
• Unlatch the lay-on roller arm.
• Close and lock the take-up side door.
• If using timecode, set the sensitivity switch according to
the table In the Timecode section of this manual. The
switch is located at the top left corner of the feed side
door aphoto.

6.2 Checking the Loop Size
• Turn the magazine so the throat is pointing upwards
with the feed side facing you.
• Push the loop to the left so all the slack is below the
pressure plate.
• The end of the loop must fall within the white line
marked in the lower throat chamber aphoto.
• If the loop length is not correct push down the button in
the midlle of the lower sprocket and turn the sprockets
against each other to alter the loop length. Make sure
the sprocket engages properly again after changing

If only part of the lm roll has been exposed and you intend
leaving a ‘short end‘ in the magazine, cut the lm loop
squarely through a perforation.
The following steps should be carried out in
total darkness in a darkroom or changing tent!
• Open the take-up side door by ipping the locking
grip upwards and turning the grip counter-clock-wise.
• Lift up the door and remove it by pulling it to the left.
• Manually wind the lm roll counter-clockwise until the
lm tail comes free from the lower sprocket roller.
• Swing the lay-on roller arm aphoto away from the
winding shaft until it locks in place.
• Pull the lm roll upwards and off.
Note: When pulling the lm roll off the shaft, grip the
roll rmly to prevent the middle of the lm roll
from sagging down.
The lm tail should never be pulled to tighten the

Filming with HMI Light
When lighting scenes with HMI/CID discharge lamps, the
intensity of the light will pulse with the power supply frequency
unless a icker-free ballast is used. To achieve constant
exposure, the camera’s frame rate, the supply frequency
of the lighting and the angle of the mirror shutter must all
relate to each other. As the camera frame rate and the supply
frequency of the lighting are normally xed, compensation
is achieved by adjusting the angle of the mirror shutter.
The following table indicates the mirror shutter angle that
needs to be set:
Supply frequency 50 Hz 60 Hz
Frame rate 25 fps 24 fps 25 fps 24 fps

10.1 General Description of the IVS
The Integrated Video Assist System (IVS) for the ARRIFLEX
416 brings the highly praised video assist systems from
the ARRIFLEX 435, ARRICAMS and ARRIFLEX 235 to the
ARRIFLEX 416. It resembles the IVS 235 control structure
and of course offers the same unsurpassed image quality
combined with a state-of-the-art inserter to add frame lines,
camera status, LDS information and text to the video image.
Video-Ait-Sytem
New Features
• Electronic image sharpening
The 416 IVS has an electronic sharpness control which
can be adjusted to optimize the look of the video
output.
• Color Bar Generator
A new menu option allows the user to generate color
bars so that monitors being fed from the IVS can be
adjusted correctly.
• One Push White
Automatic white adjustment by pointing the lens at a
white surface and pressing the One Push White Key
• 2 x Mini Monitor connectors
The IVS offers two Mini-Monitor connectors for use
with a 12 V LCD monitor and a wireless video
transmitter. The Mini-Monitor connectors have a
combined output power of up to 36 W (output current
3 A).
• Wrong Cable Warning
An LED illuminates to indicate a bridge between
camera and video grounds. This warning is to prevent
damage to the IVS and/or camera
iris

Main Features
• Integrated into the camera body
Instead of a bulky add-on, the video assist is integrated
into the camera without additional cabling.
• High sensitivity
A high-speed lens with an aperture of 1 : 2.0 and one
of the most sensitive CCD Chips available on the market
combine to provide an excellent color video image in
editing quality even when the lighting is set for high-
speed lm stock that will be pushed during processing.
• High resolution
The design of the new IVS optics was based around
the ARRIFLEX 416 viewnder and results in an image
quality which cannot be attained by add-on solutions.
• Flicker free
An integrated digital frame store enables the video
camera to be synchronized to the lm camera‘s mirror
shutter and provides a icker free video image from 1 fps
(in manual gain control mode) up to maximum speed
because the video image is always taken at the ideal
position of the mirror shutter. Flicker free can be switched
off to bypass the digital frame store and to have
minimal delay in the video system.
• Full white balance control
In addition to the standard indoor white balance setting
of 3200 K, an outdoor setting of 5600 K and an
automatic adjustment, the red and blue channels can
be ne tuned for manual white balance. The 416 IVS
also includes a one push white key.
• Line Interpolation
Resolution is improved in camera “RUN“ mode by using
line interpolation. This results in an image approaching
eld resolution.
• Store and recall settings
All settings can be stored and recalled. This allows you
to adjust all the settings for indoor shooting, store them,
shoot some exterior scenes, then go back indoors and
recall the previous settings.
Up to 6 settings can be stored.
• Integrated frame line inserter
Frame lines can be electronically added to the video
image. This ensures that the lines are visible even in
difcult conditions. The area outside the frame lines
can be darkened electronically in 4 different steps to
emphasize the important image area.
Video-Ait-Sytem

Video-Ait-Sytem
• Camera status display
Camera status information, e.g. camera speed and
lm counter data are passed on a bus interface from
the camera to the video assist and can be displayed in
a camera status line on the monitor.
• Lens Data Information
Lens information, such as lens type, focal distance,
depth of eld, iris and focal length can be
electronically inserted in the video image if they are
available, e.g. from a lens data archive.
• System display
Camera system information is available in the video
assist. Thus, it is possible to see camera warnings such
as low battery on the monitor.
• Integrated text inserter
Additional text such as take numbers or the production
name can be added to the video image by entering the
text on the IVS.
• Y/C Outputs
The usual composite outputs can be switched to an Y/C
output (S VHS) for an even better video image without
annoying color artefacts, with or without data inserted
into the video image. The Y/C output uses two BNC
sockets.
• On-Screen programming
All functions, which do not directly affect the image
appearance, such as frame lines, can be conveniently
programmed with an on-screen programming menu
on the video monitor.
• Dedicated controls
Important image changes, such as gain or white balance,
can be performed in parallel to the on-screen
programming with dedicated keys.
• Image compare function
It is possible to store a chosen image and compare it
against the live input. This clearly shows the difference
between the images, e.g. during stop effect shots.
• Automatic and manual gain control
The gain is controlled automatically to its best value but
can also be set manually.
Note: The IVS package already includes a lens for
Super 16, a 1.5 mm Allen key for image
adjustment and a Y/C (S VHS) cable.

10.2 Setup
10.2.1 Installation
A 3 mm Allen key is used for installation.
• Undo the two screws holding the transport cover
aphoto and remove it.
• Remove the IVS transport cover from the video assist
by undoing the two screws on the IVS aphoto.
Note: It may be useful to screw the camera transport
cover to the IVS transport cover to store them
together as a pair because they are usually
required at the same time.

image. To see the image and check its color appearance,
go to M position. The window disappears but the on-screen
program mode is still on. By releasing the switch, the
window will come back in the programming mode.
10.3.2 Mechanical Iris
Only a relatively small portion of the light that passes
through the lm camera’s lens reaches the CCD chip of
the video assist, because the light is shared between the
view nder, the CCD Chip and the lm. Therefore, the IVS
lens is designed for normal use with a totally open iris so
the maximum amount of light falls on the CCD Chip.
Variations in lighting are compensated by the IVS gain
control (automatically or manually).
Under certain conditions, such as when lighting is set for
low sensitivity lm (under 100 ASA), it may be that the
IVS gain range is exceeded. In this case the mechanical
iris of the IVS lens can be closed.
iris

Video-Ait-Sytem
Check all settings on a correctly adjusted monitor.
If the mechanical iris is closed more than necessary, the
IVS will compensate by increasing the gain and restore
the image brightness electronically. This creates additional
electronic noise. To avoid this, open the mechanical iris.
• To change the iris, turn the wheel with the iris symbol Õ.
10.3.3 Alignment of the image position
(X, Y and Rotation) and focus
The position of the image on the CCD Chip and its focus can
vary slightly from camera to camera. The video image on the
monitor may appear off-centre, not levelled or out of focus.
All adjustments can be made by using a 1,5 mm Allen key,
which is delivered with the IVS.
Do not use force!
• Image position adjustments in x and y direction can be
made with the adjustment screws marked x and y aphoto.
• The screw marked Ò moves the video image horizontally
on the monitor. The screw marked Ó moves it vertically.
Note: Design restrictions imposed by the IVS‘ small
size mean that the direction of movement
imparted by the x and y adjustment screws
might be not precisely in the x and y directions.
• Image rotation can be adjusted by the screw marked
with the Ô symbol aphoto.
• The image can be focussed using the screw which is
marked with the F symbol aphoto.

10.3.4 White Balance (WB)
The IVS offers a choice of White Balance methods between
• automatic control (AWB)
• xed setting of indoor (IND)
• xed setting for outdoor (OTD)
• a one push white setting procedure
• and a full manual control of white balance (MAN).
White balance can be manually adjusted in two different
ways: Either with the keypad on the IVS or by using the
on-screen control menu.
Using the Keypad
Check all settings on a correctly adjusted monitor.
Video-Ait-Sytem

Note: With the MAN LED constantly on, no color
settings can be made to avoid accidental
adjustment.
Note: The one push white facility is only available
when the exposure is within the normal range.
If the image is over or underexposed, one push
white will not work.
Note: Changing red, blue and gain will also change
green. The video signal is the addition of red,
green and blue and amplied by the gain.
Decreasing red and blue and lifting gain
increases green.
• By pressing the WB key Ï aphoto, the setting will
be changed from AWB, IND, OTD to MAN. The LED
corresponding to the selected setting will light. After
MAN, the next click on the WB key Ï will cause the
MAN LED to blink.
• It is now possible to manually change the red and blue
channels or to use the one push white facility. To change
manually, make sure that the MAN LED ashes and use
the color coded Ê, Ë, Í and Ì keys. The next click
on the WB key Ï or waiting longer than 5 seconds
without pressing any key will cause the MAN LED to be
constantly on.
For the one push white mode, point the lm camera at
a white surface, e.g. a sheet of paper in front of the
camera, and make sure that the MAN LED and the
Enter Insert LED are ashing. Then press the Ñ key.
Another click on the WB key Ï will lead back to AWB.
An illuminated LED shows the selected mode.
• If Automatic White Balance (AWB) is selected, the IVS
will automatically set the White Balance. No manual
steps are necessary in this mode aphoto.
• If indoor (IND) is selected aphoto white balance is
optimized for tungsten lighting with a color
temperature of 3200 K.
• The outdoor (OTD) setting aphoto optimizes the
white balance for daylight with a color temperature of
5600 K.

10.3.6 Flicker free on/off
Flicker free can be switched off to bypass the digital frame
store and have the video assist output with no delay.
The typical running speed for the lm camera is different to
that of the video assist. e.g. the lm camera runs at 24 fps
and the video assist at 25 fps for PAL or 30 fps for NTSC.
Without icker processing this speed difference causes
varying brightness between successive individual video
images. To eliminate this so called icker, video images are
stored at the speed of the lm camera into the video frame
storage and recalled in the speed of the video system. This
storage might cause a slight delay, which is not desirable
in some time-crucial conditions, e.g. motion control or
shooting of a pop video. Therefore it is possible to switch
the icker free system off. This will eliminate the delay.
However, icker will occur in this mode.
Using the Keypad
• By pressing the FF key Î the icker free mode alters
between on and off. An LED illuminates to show icker
free (FF) is set to on aphoto.

10.3.9 Wrong Cable Warning LED
The main reason for damage to the IVS is incorrectly wired
cables connected to any of the IVS outputs. Even if some
faults do not cause immediate destruction, they put the IVS
at risk and may eventually cause failures of the IVS unit.
Therefore the IVS checks for the following wrong conditions
on the outputs:
• Bridge between camera power supply ground and
video signal ground (e.g. shield of BNC sockets)
• Bridge between positive camera power supply and
video signal ground (e.g. shield of BNC sockets)
• Bridge between positive camera power supply and
housing of the camera and/or IVS
• AC between camera power supply and video signal
ground (e.g. shield of BNC sockets)
• AC between camera power supply and housing of the
camera and/or IVS
• AC between housing of the camera/IVS and video
signal ground (e.g. shield of BNC sockets)
If one of the above described conditions is detected, the
Cable Warning LED (CBL) will light up. Disconnect all cables
form the IVS and/or ARRIFLEX 416 until the warning
disappears. Do not use the faulty cable again.
Note: The above mentioned faults are caused by 3rd
party cables, improper cables, faulty cables or
a fault condition on equipment connected to
these cables. Please report such conditions
immediately to the camera owner.

10.4 Inserter Facilities
In addition to the usual video assist functions, the IVS offers
a variety of inserter facilities. They fall into three different
groups of information:
• Format markings
Format markings, which are inserted electronically, are
often more visible than the format markings on the
bre screen.
• Man Readable Information
Camera status
System line
Lens Data Information
Timecode
User Bits
Pull Down Information
Additional text
• Machine Readable Information
VITC
White Line Flag
Inserted data is only available on outputs that
have video with data.
Engravings from the bre screen (e. g. TV Safe
etc.) are visible at all times on all outputs.
Note: All currently used settings are stored even if the IVS
or the camera is switched off or disconnected from
the power supply. After restarting the IVS the
settings remain unchanged, except for the image
stored mode, which will always come up in live
mode and the color bars, which will always be
switched off.

10.4.1 Setting the On-Screen Displays
During programming, inserted data is not fully
updated (e.g. Frame Counter Information). To
get updated information, leave the on-screen
display menu by pressing the Enter/Insert key
Ñ for more than three seconds.
Once the on-screen display is activated by pressing the
Enter/Insert key Ñ for more than three seconds, the
following procedure is used to select and set all functions
within the main menu and the sub menus:
• Pressing the key Ê or Ë will move the cursor > up or
down. Pressing the key Í or Ì activates sub menus.
• Within sub menus the cursor > can be moved up and
down again by pressing the key Ê or Ë. The keys Í
or Ì will now change settings (e. g. switch the insertion
of a user text window on and off), or activates functions
(position mode of a window or EXIT).
• If the windows position mode is activated, the keys Ê or
Ë will move the window across the video image. To leave
the position mode press the Enter/Insert key Ñ briey.
• To go from a sub menu back to the main menu, position
the cursor > by using the keys Ê and Ë on the line
EXIT and press the key Í or Ì.
• Active lines are marked with a dash symbol –.
They can be reached with the cursor > within a menu
using the keys Ê and Ë. Lines may be visible but
without a dash because the currently selected mode
does not use this feature. E.g. when gain is not in
manual control mode, the line value is not active
because value cannot be changed in the automatic
control mode. In this case, no dash symbol – is
displayed and the line cannot be reached with the
cursor >. To activate this line, switch from automatic to
manual gain control mode.
Changes made to settings are immediately activated.

Flicker free ON/OFF
Flicker free can be switched off to bypass the digital frame
store and have the video assist output with no delay.
The typical running speed for the lm camera is different to
that of the video assist. e.g. the lm camera runs at 24 fps
and the video assist at 25 fps for PAL or 30 fps for NTSC.
Without icker processing this speed difference causes
varying brightness between successive individual video
images. To eliminate this so called icker, video images are
stored at the speed of the lm camera into the video frame
storage and recalled in the speed of the video system. This
storage might cause a slight delay, which is not desirable
in some time-crucial conditions, e.g. motion control or
shooting of a pop video. Therefore it is possible to switch
the icker free system off. This will eliminate the delay.
However, icker will occur in this mode.
In parallel to the control via keypad, the icker free off can
also be programmed via the on-screen menu.
• Move the cursor > with the keys Ê and Ë to the line
– FLICKERFREE. Pressing the key Í or Ì will switch
icker free mode off and on.

Line interpolation on/off
Due to the rotating mirror shutter of the lm camera, the
CCD chip of the IVS gets light only for 50 % of the time. All
video assists will therefore have only one true video eld
and the next one will be the repetition of the previous one.
So the repeated video eld does not have new information.
To improve this situation, the video assist can be electronically
enhanced with a feature called line interpolation.
• Move the cursor > with the keys Ê and Ë to the line
– LINE INTERP. Pressing the key Í or Ì will switch the
line interpolation on and off.
Note: This setting only affects the video image while
the lm camera is in run mode.
Sharpness value
The slew rate of the video signal can be electronically
adjusted, thus creating a crisper image. However, this will
lead to more video artefacts so the best image is a balance
between sharpness and video artefacts.
• Move the cursor > with the keys Ê and Ë to the line
– SHARPNESS. Pressing the key Í will switch the
sharpness from 0 to 3 and back to 0. The Ì key will
give the opposite direction.

connected to the other BNC socket.
Note: GENLOCK is only available, if the output is on
VBS mode.
Note: This setting is switched back to GENLOCK off after
the IVS is started (after power down/power up)

Mini-Monitor Output as clean video or video with data
The mini monitor output can be programmed to have either
clean video or video with data. Both mini monitor outputs are
in parallel, so there are either no data, or data on both outputs.
If the on-screen menu control is on (red LED next to the
Enter/Insert key Ñ is on), there will always be data in
this output. This is necessary because if the output is
switched to data off, no inserter information is visible and
therefore, it would be impossible to go back into the on-

10.4.9 User Text Menu
The IVS can insert additional text into the video image, e.g.
the production name or a scene number. The text can be
entered on the IVS using the text edit facility or the ARRI
software User Text Line IVS (downloadable from the ARRI
website).
If information is stored in the text memory, it will remain
there until the memory is cleared or new text overwrites the
old. The text memory is retained even if the IVS or the
camera is switched off and disconnected from the power
supply. This enables, for example, a camera rental house to
store information, which is then available to the production
team. e.g. the production name.
Like all man readable information, the data is inserted as a

10.4.10 Timecode Menu
The IVS can burn the lm camera‘s timecode into the video
assist image to create a direct link to the post production.
It is possible to insert either timecode, which is related to
the lm camera speed, e.g. 24 fps or a timecode which
counts according to the type of video assist (25 full video
frames per second with PAL or 30 full video frames per
second with NTSC).
Like all man readable information, the data is inserted as
a window on the monitor image. The window can be
switched on and off independently. Background, position
and character format can be altered without affecting the
settings of other windows.
The adjustment of the white level of the inserted data, an

Frame Counter
It is recommended the camera user checks the
requirements of all parties involved in post-
production prior to shooting.
Frequently the camera is set to run at a different speed from
that of the video system. In areas with NTSC video system
for example, the lm camera might run at 24 fps whereas
the video system works with 30 full video frames per second.
In order to adapt to these specic needs there are two
different timecode formats possible.

To have the timecode count related to the lm camera, select
the mode “Frame counter Film“ which is often referred to
as “lm related timecode“. In this mode, the frame counter
of the timecode (the last two digits of the timecode display)
is increased by 1 if the lm is advanced by one frame e.g.
24 times a second at 24 fps. This way it is easy to identify
one particular lm frame by looking at the video image.
On the other hand, this mode will create an unusual time-
code count because some video images are repeated to
cope with the different frame rates of the video and the lm
camera. These repeated images will get duplicated time-
code words which will create error messages on some
timecode readers.
To relate the timecode count to the video system, select
“Frame counter Video“. This is often referred to as “video
related timecode“. Every full video frame will advance the
timecode by 1 e.g. 25 times a second in PAL or 30 times
a second in NTSC. In this mode the IVS creates a standard
timecode. On the other hand, it is more difcult to restore
the link back to the timecode, which was recorded on lm.
To get a reliable relation, it is necessary to utilize the Pull-
Down (refer to chapter 6.8) or White Line Flag
information (refer to chapter 6.11).
At every full second, both time counts are identical.
In case of “Frame counter Film“ there will be a / before the
frame count (the last two digits of the timecode display), in
case of “Frame counter Video“ there will be a : aphoto.
11:24:30/03
11:24:30:03
11:24:30/**
The Frame count is only active if timecode is
actually recorded on Film. In all other cases a
** aphoto symbol will appear in place of the
frame count.
Timecode is only recorded on lm at standard
speeds. These are 23.976 fps, 24 fps, 25 fps,
29.97 fps and 30 fps. At all other speeds, time-
code is displayed on the video assist without the
frame count and it is not recorded on lm.
Timecode is only valid when Flicker Free is on.

All video assists are based either on PAL or NTSC video
systems, with a xed video frequency of either 25 full video
frames per second with PAL or 29.97 full video frames per
second with NTSC. The speed of the lm camera on the other
hand can be selected over a wide range. At every lm speed
which is different from the video frequency, the IVS has to add
repeated video elds to compensate for the different frame
rates.

In practice the most important case is a lm camera speed
of 23.976 fps and a NTSC video assist.
This creates the situation described in the drawing.
From the rst lm frame, two video elds are derived, the
second lm frame, three video elds are derived, from the
next lm frame, two video elds and so on.
The Pull-Down information is created as follows:
Every time, the video eld corresponds to a new lm frame,
the letter will change either from A to B or B to A and the
number will be set to 1. As long as no new lm frame is
taken, the video elds are counted, beginning from 1.
Consequently A2 is the rst repetition of A1. B2 would be
the rst repetition of B1, B3 would be the second repetition.
In spite of the fact that the name Pull-Down comes from the
working practice in the NTSC systems, where on a telecine
the lm is running on 23.976 fps and gets converted to
29.97 fps, the denition of Pull-Down information on the
IVS can also be applied to PAL and to lm speeds other
than 23.976 fps.

10.4.14 White Line Menu
The IVS can generate information on whether the current
video image corresponds to a new lm frame or whether
it is a repeated video image. The White Line ag displays
this in machine readable form.
• Enter the White Line Menu from the Main Menu.
Changes made to settings are immediately activated.
Check all settings on a correctly adjusted monitor.
All video assists are based either on PAL or NTSC video
systems, with a xed video frequency of either 25 full
video frames per second with PAL or 29.97 full video
frames per second with NTSC. The speed of the lm
camera on the other hand can be selected over a wide
range. At every lm speed which is different from the
video frequency, the IVS has to add repeated video elds
to compensate for the different frame rates.
In practice the most important case is a lm camera speed
of 23.976 fps and a NTSC video assist.
This creates a situation described in the drawing.

From the rst lm frame, two video elds are derived, the
second lm frame, three video elds are derived, from the
next lm frame, two video elds and so on.
The White Line ag works as follows:
Every time, the video eld corresponds to a new lm frame,
the letter will change either from A to B or B to A and the
number will be set to 1. As long as no new lm frame is
taken, the video elds are counted, beginning from 1.
Consequently A2 is the rst repetition of A1. B2 would be
the rst repetition of B1, B3 would be the second
repetition. On every A1 or B1, the selected video line will
get set to video signal white, indicating that only these
video frames correlate one-to-one to lm frames. The
duplicated video elds are not marked.
In spite of the fact that the name Pull-Down comes from
the working practice in the NTSC systems, where on a
telecine the lm is running on 23.976 fps and gets
converted to 29.97 fps, the denition of Pull-Down
information on the IVS can also be applied to PAL and to
lm speeds other than 23.976 fps.
Note: The insertion of White Line ags is only done,
when timecode is actually recorded on lm. If
there is no timecode recording, for example
because the camera is not running on a time-
code speed, no White Line ag is sent out.
Note: The White Line has priority over VITC lines. If
the same line is selected for White Line as well
as for VITC, White Line will appear.

11.Timecode
The ARRIFLEX 416 is equipped with a TC generator which
produces 80bit Timecode with a data structure conforming
to SMPTE RP136, Format Type C. The TC generator is set
using a master clock. The precision of the TC generator
ensures that for 8 hours after the synchronization (at 0°C
- 50°C) the difference remains less than one frame, if the
time code generator of the audio machine is precise, too.
Every frame is therefore clearly identiable for synchro-
nization or editing lists.
A new feature on the 416 further improves the accuracy
of the synchronization between the 416 TC generator and
the master clock. To exploit this feature the camera must
be connected to an Ambient Clockit as the master clock.
Timecode is recorded in the magazine, its position on lm
conforming to SMPTE RP114, at standard speeds of
23.976, 24.00, 25.00, 29.97 and 30.00 fps.
The TC information also includes speed of recording
which is described in connection with Timecode as frame
rate. For the ARRIFLEX 416 the valid frame rate is always
the most recently set standard speed.
For Timecode operation, please make sure that
the magazine is equipped with a Timecode
exposure module K2.55034.0.
TC-Input
The TC generator integrated in the ARRIFLEX 416 can be
synchronized to other equipment with a TC generator. A
LTC signal (Longitudinal TimeCode) from any TC generator
is plugged into the “TCC“ socket. The signal level must be
higher than 500 mV p-p. The camera automatically takes
on TC time and TC User Bits. If the LTC signal is correctly
transferred the TC recording will be automatically
switched on.
Timecode

1
• Using the “MODE“ key aphoto switch to Mode 4
(Timecode time)
• Plug the cable with the TC signal into the “TCC“ socket
aphoto. The last two entries on the indicator show a
blinking “EC“ (external code). If the LTC signal is
correctly transferred the indication “CC“ (correct code)
appears for approx. 10 second before the indicator on
the generator frame rate switches back.
Note: The CCU is no longer supported and cannot be
used for setting Timecode.
Increased accuracy of the TC Generator
The ARRIFLEX 416 TC generator has a new feature to extend
the time period required between synchronizations. The
camera must be connected to an Ambient Clockit as the
master clock. The Ambient Clockit measures the frequency
of the 416 TC output, calculates the difference to its own
internal clock and puts out an adjustment value to the 416
TC generator.
Timecode

TC Output
TC information is constantly available as 80bit LTC on the
“TCC“ socket. Output signal is in the LTC format.
From the TC output TC compatible equipment can be
synchronized on the set once (for 8 hours) on the camera’s
Timecode or constantly supplied with Timecode by the
camera. The camera then takes on the master clock function.
The 416 TC Generator is not able to adjust the clock of an
external device to its own clock frequency. When using the
416 TC Generator as a master clock the adaptation to the
master clock has to be done by the slave itself. No
functionality is provided by the 416 in this respect.
Timecode
Timecode and ESU-1
When using the external synchronization unit ESU-1 for
synchronizing the camera to other equipment, Timecode
can still be recorded. The difference between the external
synchronization and the TC frame rate must be less than
1%. If the difference exceeds 1% the TC recording
switches off and the “TC“ symbol in the display goes off.
If the speed comes back to within 1% of the TC frame
rate, TC recording switches on again and the “TC“
symbol appears again on the display. Even if an external
synchronization unit is used, it is necessary to set the
expected frame rate on the camera, before attaching the
ESU-1.

1
Using Timecode
For Timecode operation, please make sure that
the magazine is equipped with a Timecode
exposure module K2.55034.0.
Turning on and off the TC Recording
• Using the “MODE“ key aphoto, switch to Mode 4
(Timecode time).
• Depress the “SET“ key aphoto for approx. 3 s until
the “TC“ symbol appears or disappears on the display.
When the camera is rst turned on without a previously set
valid Timecode remaining in the buffer, the Timecode clock
starts running from time 00:00:00:00, with the User Bits set
to 00000000. This happens regardless of whether TC is
turned on or not. TC time can only be set by the master clock.
User Bits can be set either by the master clock or entered
manually with the camera display. If TC is turned on but not
set by external synchronization, a warning will be displayed.
If a speed is set on the camera which does not correspond
to TC, the TC generator retains the most recently set frame
rate. While Timecode is in use and the speed is changed
from one to another valid Timecode speed, the “TC“ symbol
on the display goes off for approx. 1 s and reappears once
the TC generator is ready.

When TC is set at a Real Time frame rate (24 fps, 25 fps
& 30 fps) and the camera speed is changed to a Non
Real Time Frame rate (23.976 fps & 29.97 fps), a
warning will be indicated after the camera has stopped.
The same warning comes up if you set a TC at Non Real
Time frame rate and switch to Real Time frame rate
afterwards. Setting the TC at the used frame rate (Non
Real Time or Real Time) has to be done to clear this error.
While TC recording is switched on and the camera is
running, there is a delay of approx. 24 frames before the
camera stops after the “RUN” button is pressed to stop
the camera.
Entering User Bits with the Camera Display
• Using the “MODE“ key aphoto switch to Mode 5
(Timecode User Bits).
• Use the “SEL“ key aphoto to select the digit you wish
to change. The selected digit will ash.
• Use the “SET“ key aphoto to change the value of the
selected digit.
Note: User Bit values are hexadecimal so only values
from 0 - 9 and A - F are available.
Indicating Timecode or User Bits
• Using the “MODE“ key switch to Mode 4 (Timecode
time) or Mode 5 (Timecode User Bits).
The Timecode time indicator will indicate “hours:minutes“
in the upper line and “seconds:frame rate“ in the lower
line. In the case of frame rate, only positions before the
comma will be shown:
23 23,976 fps
24 24,000 fps
25 25,000 fps
29 29,970 fps
30 30,000 fps
At speeds of 29,970 fps and 23,976 fps the frame rate in
the “Nondrop-Frame“ mode count in accordance with
SMPTE RP136-1990, 5.2.1, to correspond to NTSC video
with 59,940 Hz. The “Nondrop-Frame“ mode results in a
time difference to real time of exactly 0,1%.

TC Warnings
A TC warning is displayed rstly as a blinking “TC“ symbol
in the camera display. If the beeper volume is set to 1 or
higher, a warning beep will sound in time with the blinking
of the “TC“ symbol when the camera is in Standby. The
acoustic warning can be silenced by doing one of the
following:
• Remedy the cause of the warning.
• Switch off timecode.
• Set the beeper volume to 0 (see under Switching the
Beeper On and Off, Chapter 9.3).
• By briey pressing the “SET“ button in Mode 1 of the
display. This will suppress the acoustic warning for 15
minutes.
• Running the camera. The acoustic warning will not sound
while the camera is running. After stopping the camera
the warning will begin to sound again approximately
3 seconds after the camera enters Standby.
The camera can also display more detailed warnings in
hexadecimal form. To see these, change the display to
Mode 4 (Timecode time) using the “MODE“ button and
then press the “SEL“ button.
The four digits in the upper line display hexadecimal
values (0 - 9 & A - F). Their meaning can be looked up in
the following tables. There is no warning if the upper line
displays 00:00. An example of an error warning is
00:03, which indicates two warnings:
• error in external synchronization and
• TC is switched on but not set
In this case both errors can be remedied by external
synchronization.

Film Sensitivity (TCS Value)
The intensity of the TC recording must be adjusted to suit
the sensitivity of different lm stocks. The switch for setting
the TCS level (Timecode sensitivity) is on the feed side on
the magazine. The knob can be turned by hand if the
magazine door is open or with a small screwdriver if the
magazine door is closed.
“0“ means no recording, “1“-“9“ stand for the various
intensity levels. The higher the TCS level, the higher the
intensity of the recording. The difference in intensity of the
successive TCS levels corresponds to one aperture stop.
The currently set level can also be seen in Mode 4 on the
display by pressing the “SEL“ key.
The TCS levels of the most frequently used lm types are

TC Buffer
The ARRIFLEX 416 ensures not only high accuracy of the
Timecode but also allows the TC clock to continue running
while the camera is switched off as long as the camera is
connected to a power supply. The TC generator needs a
power supply of 10mA when the camera is switched off.
To allow the camera battery to be changed, a short-term
buffer of one minute is provided by charge stored in a
capacitor. In order for this buffer to function however it is
necessary that the camera be connected to a power
supply for at least 10 minutes to allow the capacitor to
charge prior to a battery change. Have a fresh battery
ready before disconnecting the old one.
To enable the camera to be used while mobile without
losing TC time, the use of an on-board battery is
recommended. An on-board battery can power the TC
buffer for more than 100 hours. To reduce power
consumption while working with the battery, the battery
should be removed during lengthy breaks in lming
(longer than a day). Before recommencing lming, TC
synchronization will need to be carried out again.

12.2 Radio system
A radio is incorporated into the 416 Plus extended
electronics. This enables wireless communication of lens
control and lens data information as well as remote control
of the camera functions.
The 416 Plus uses the latest ARRI WRS protocol
which is denoted be a yellow rubber washer on
the antenna aphoto. All ARRI WRS products
can be upgraded to the new protocol – consult
your local ARRI Service Centre.
The 416 Plus has a channel selection switch and a status
LED aphoto for the radio modem. The channel selection
switch on the camera should be set to the same number
as that of the WMU-2/3 used on the controlling handset.
It is not possible to control more than one 416 Plus, URM,
UMC-3 or LDB with one Wireless Main Unit simultaneously.
Yellow washer wireless protocol uses a specic scheme of
changing frequencies to make the connection between the
handset and camera modems more robust. The channels
of the selection switch are allocated as follows:

Lens Motors
Both CLM-1 and CLM-2 motors can be used with the
ARRIFLEX 416 Plus.
• CLM-1 motors should be daisy-chained in series with one
of the end motors connected to either (but not both) of
the 416 Plus LCS bus connectors aphoto.
• CLM-2 motors should be connected, according to their
position on the lens, to the Zoom, Focus and Iris
connectors of the 416 Plus aphoto.
• CLM-1 and CLM-2 motors may be used simultaneously
but only on different lens axes.
In the situation where a CLM-1 is assigned to Focus and a
CLM-2 is simultaneously plugged into the Focus connector,
the CLM-1 will have priority and the CLM-2 connection will
be deactivated. The same applies to the Zoom and Iris axes.
Each CLM-2 motor connection has a direction switch
aphoto and a status LED aphoto.
• Use the direction switch to change the direction of
rotation of the attached motor.

12.5 Lens Data Display
Compatibility
The ARRIFLEX 416 Plus can be used with the Lens Data
Display for Focus Puller (LDD-FP) to display lens information
using the Lens Data Archive. LDS contacts are not tted to
the camera‘s lens port so LDS lenses and the LDS Data Mount
are not supported.
The ARRIFLEX 416 Plus is only compatible with
the Lens Data Display for Focus Puller (LDD-FP).
The Lens Data Display Classic (LDD) is not
supported.
The LDD-FP can be operated with the 416 Plus in either of
the following congurations:
• Cable LDDFP-RDO (K2.54172.0) between the LDD
connector on the camera and the LDD-FP for cable
operation.
Or
• Wireless, mounted on the WMU-3.
Lens Data Archive
The Lens Data Archive provides the key LDS features for
any camera with any lens, as long as the LDD-FP, UMC-3
or 416 Plus and CLM-1 or CLM-2 lens motors are used –
manual follow focus is not supported. After each lens change,
the lens type is selected from a pre-programmed menu on
the LDD-FP.

External Synchronization Unit ESU-1
The external synchronization unit ESU-1 aphoto can be
used with the ARRIFLEX 416 as well as with the 235, the
435 models, 535, 535B and 16SR 3/Advanced. It allows
the camera to be synchronised to other equipment such as
TV monitors. By means of a BNC-socket, it is possible to
synchronize to an external standard video signal (50/60 Hz)
or, through an inductive pickup, to a CRT type monitor.
The camera display shows “ESU” in the upper line. The
ESU-1 can be used for frame rates from 3 to 60 fps.
The frame rate is indicated on the camera display in Mode 2.
A phase shifter and a pilot tone generator have also been
integrated into the external synchronization unit. The phase
relationship of the synchronization is retained even when
the camera is switched off.
See TECHN. INFORMATION “External Synchronization
Unit ESU-1”.
• To connect the ESU cable to the camera, the 235/416
Accessory Expansion Cable KC-88-s has to be connected
to the camera’s “REMOTE“ socket. The ESU cable is then
connected to the accessory expansion cable. The RCU-1
can be connected to the other socket of the accessory
expansion cable.

Remote Control Unit RCU-1
The RCU-1 aphoto is a practical remote control unit for
use with all of the latest generation ARRIFLEX camera models.
It can be used in all applications that call for an uncompli-
cated, quick, sturdy and yet still comprehensive remote control.
Complete programs can easily be created to control changing
of frame rate over a certain period of time. These programs
are repeatable and can be recalled as necessary.
The RCU-1 automatically calculates the actual screen-time
for the programmed speed ramps. running values can be
regulated with the large hand wheel.
The free programming of individually dened minimum
and maximum values as end stops is particularly useful.
The illuminated LCD quickly, precisely and comprehensively
shows all set values as well as the status of the camera, or
the RCU-1 respectively, including all warning signals.
• The RCU cable is connected to the “REMOTE“ socket
aphoto on the camera.
For further information see the RCU-1 instruction manual.
Note: CCU, RU and LCC are not supported and could
cause malfunction if connected.

Wireless Remote Control WRC-1
The Wireless Remote Control WRC-1 is a handy remote
control unit for use with all of the latest generation of
ARRIFLEX camera models: ARRIFLEX 16SR 3/Advanced,
16SR 3 HS/Advanced, 535, 535B, 235, 435ES, 435
Advanced, 435 Xtreme and the ARRIFLEX 416.
On the ARRIFLEX 416 it enables the user to remotely control:
• the camera speed,
• the aperture of the lens (iris),
providing constant exposure compensation for speed
ramps.
The range of functions offered by the WRC-1 is automatically
adapted to the limits of the camera and the lens control
motor which it is controlling. The large hand wheel permits
sensitive adjustment of operational values, and easy
programming of end-stops for user-dened minimum and
maximum values.
The illuminated LCD provides quick, precise and compre-
hensive information about all the settings, the status of the
camera and the WRC-1, including all warnings.

1.Maintenance
When maintaining and cleaning the camera and
accessories, pay careful attention to the following notes
and tips:
• Always disconnect the camera from the power supply.
• Clean the camera and accessories only on a clean and
at surface which is covered with foam material or a
clean, lint-free cloth.
• Under no circumstances use acetone or nitro-thinner.
These chemicals dissolve the paint and can damage
highly-polished surfaces and plastic parts.
• For cleaning, the use of soft, lint-free cloths and swabs
is recommended. Also suitable are special cleaning
tissues and small sponges as used in cleaning
computers and video equipment.
• When cleaning the lm movement, do not exert too
much pressure. Use only the prescribed special tools.
Use only good quality screwdrivers of the correct size.
• From time to time – at the very least after the
occurrence of a lm jam – it is recommended to clean
the entire interior of the camera and also the magazine
throat and the lm gate with a brush. In most cases it is
sufcient to vacuum out dust and lm chips from the
camera and the magazine interiors. A small battery-
powered vacuum cleaner, as used in cleaning
computers, is suitable for this task.
Maintenance

Cleaning the Film Gate
Loose dust or dirt leads to a layer of emulsion forming on
the lm gate. This can cause scratches on the lm and can
also lead to a change in the lm’s coefcient of friction.
Attention!
Keep ngers out of the lm gate opening as this
may damage the mirror shutter.
To clean the lm gate
• Remove the layer of emulsion from the lm gate with a
plastic rod (e.g. the ARRI lm gate cleaner). Under no
circumstances use hard or metal objects.
• When cleaning, pay particular attention to the area of
the lm gate opposite the magazine pressure plate if
lm stock with a strong tendency to build up emulsion
(e.g. b/w stock) is being used.

Cleaning the Field Lens
• Briey press the “PHASE” button, to position the shutter
to protect the mirror surface from damage as far as
possible.
• Before cleaning the eld lens, switch the camera’s main
switch off and disconnect from the power supply!
• Remove the lens or the protective cap from the
camera‘s lens port.
Do not touch the mirror surface!
• Pull the bre screen aphoto out of the holder by its
tongue aphoto using the special forceps.
• Pull the eld lens aphoto out of the holder by its
tongue aphoto using the special forceps.
• Clean the eld lens with a dry, lint-free cloth.
• Make sure that the frame is completely clean.
• Using the special forceps, push the eld lens as far as
it will go into the holder. A sprung-ball catch xes the
eld lens in the correct position.
• Check that the bre optic screen and its frame are
completely clean.
• Using the special forceps, push the bre optic screen
into the holder as far as it will go. A sprung-ball catch
