3.7 Setting of the Damping
The Video 60 Plus Studio is equipped with nine damping
levels horizontally and vertically and a zero setting. By
turning the vertical setting and the horizontal setting one
selects the desired level of the fluid damping.Turn the set-
ting ring to ”0” in order to switch off the damping comple-
tely. Make sure that you always turn the setting to the next
indexed position. Engage the retainer pins by slowly pan-
ning or tilting the camera.
ATTENTON : Panning or tilting the camera with settings
between the indexed positions can damage the retainer
pins and/or disks.
If you set the setting rings on the same index number
(e. g. ”3”) the degree of the horizontal and vertical dam-
ping is identical and thus enables precise diagonal pan-
ning movements without jerks and vibrations.
3.8 Brakes
The horizontal brake applies the lock for the pan and the
vertical brake for the tilt movement. Both brakes are vibra-
tionless and can be used during shooting.
3.9 Connection to teleprompter
The Video 60 Plus Studio has two tapped holes at the
front to attach teleprompters.
3.10 Change of the batteries
The illumination is powered by three standard type button
cells (625 U or LR9) located in the battery holder, which
can be opened with a sharp object such as a screwdriver.
Make sure to insert the new batteries according to the
”plus” and ”minus” symbols as indicated in the covering
plate.The batteries last for about 2000 illumination cycles.
