The W ireless follow controller has been redesigned to be more ergonomic than ever before. With up to 20 hours of continuous shooting per battery charge, control your lens focus, iris, or zoom with precision from up to 200 meters away with our Wireless follow focus controller. Our controllers work with jib, Steadicam, MoVI, and Gamble stabilizer shots, allowing you to perform with precision without sacrificing the mobility of your cameras or the integrity of the shot. The larger focus wheel feels more fluid, precise, and ergonomic, and the mounting harness allows you to use it like a finger wheel. Also included are two thick magnetic marking discs and a redesigned Lemo cable, with a right-angle connector that helps keep your wiring clean. Setting Up the Controller Controller The controls have been designed for ease of use: They allow for preset memory points, where you can save up to four, as well as two lock points that will cause the controller to vibrate as you approach them. Choose from 16 different speed levels to control the transition speed of the presets, and 4 different damping levels from ultraresponsive to ultra smooth. The controller has an accuracy circuit built into it to ensure the lens stop precisely where you want it to, even after repeated use. Synchronization Turn on the remote control power switch and plug in the motor. Once both are on hold (SET) + (POWER) for 3 seconds. The motor light will stop blinking, and the gear will shudder. This means that the controller and motor have been successfully synchronized. (Note: This process is usually done before leaving the factory.) Automatic Calibration 1) Before installing the drive onto the lens, please make sure the wireless remote controller and motor are powered on and connected.
