1. Switch the camera off
2.Connect the other end of the cable to the camera LANC plug
3. Switch the camera – now you may start using the controller
After switching the camera on, the controller LED indicator should light
continuously. The last used zoom speed mode will be set – the current
setup will be indicated by one of zoom speed LEDs.
LED indicator not lighting at all means problem with power supply of
the controller.
LED indicator blinking slowly means problem with LANC
communication.
In either case check the cable connections to camera and controller.
Controller is designed to work only with video cameras having the 2.5
mm stereo LANC jack.
Never connect controller to any other jack, which does not have the
LANC logo. It may even result in permanent controller and/or camera
damage!
Controller is designed as a standalone control system for video
cameras - it is not designed to work simultaneously with other LANC
control systems

OPERATION
NOTE: Not all function may be available depending on camera working mode e.g. if using Sony camera Memory mode the “Record start/stop” functions
are not working.
Selecting zoom speed limit
Press one of the zoom speed buttons. The zoom mode LED should light below or above the button indicating current zoom speed limit.
Selecting zoom mode
To chose between the progressive and fixed zoom modes, press the zoom speed button – each time you press the button, zoom mode will change from
progressive to fixed and vice versa. The LED will indicate current mode.
Customizing zoom speed buttons
Rotate the zoom wheel and zoom with any speed you prefer. Press the zoom speed limiting button, you want to re-program. While zooming, keep it
pressed for approx. 1 sec, until the LED indicator will light off. The new speed limit will be saved in microcontroller internal flash memory and restored
after each power off.
You may always reset the zoom speed to predefined factory setup (see. Resetting zoom speed buttons).
Custom speed reprogramming may be done practically unlimited number of times (min. 1.000.000,- times).
Resetting zoom speed buttons
Each of three zoom speed buttons, is factory pre-set to following LANC zoom speeds:
• No. 1 zoom speed button – speed no. 1 (slowest available LANC speed)
• No. 2 zoom speed button – speed no. 3
• No. 3 zoom speed button – speed no. 8 (fastest available LANC speed)
You may reset each zoom speed button to factory pre-set: stop zooming (release the zoom knob) and press one of the zoom speed limiting buttons.
Keep it pressed for approx. 1 sec, until the LED indicator will light off. The factory pre-set speed limit will be restored.
Progressive mode zoom
Rotate the knob right (or left, dependent on the zoom direction) to zoom tele. The more angle the knob is rotated the faster zoom speed is. Zoom speed
is limited to the pre-set speed indicated by LED.
Rotate the knob left (or right, dependent on the zoom direction) to zoom wide. The more angle the knob is rotated the faster zoom speed is.
Zoom speed is limited to the pre-set speed indicated by LED.
6
Fixed mode zoom
Rotate the knob right (or left, dependent on the zoom direction) to zoom tele. Zoom speed is always constant, limited to the pre-set speed indicated by LED.
Rotate the knob left (or right, dependent on the zoom direction) to zoom wide. Zoom speed is always constant, limited to the pre-set speed indicated by LED.
Customizing zoom direction
To change the zoom direction keep pressed simultaneously “focus far” and “focus close” buttons until the LED indicator will light off.
The buttons must be kept pressed for at least 3 seconds.
The new zoom direction information will be permanently stored in the controller's internal flash memory and restored after each power off.
Standby mode
Press the button once to switch camera into standby mode.
While camera in standby mode press the button again to switch camera back into normal operation mode.
Pressing this button while camera is switched off will have no effect on camera operation.
Focus close
Keep the button pressed to adjust the focus for close objects.
Works only if camera in manual focus mode.
Focus far
Keep the button pressed to adjust the focus for far objects. Works only if camera in manual focus mode.
Record start/stop
Press the button once to start recording.
Press the button again to stop recording.
The LED indicator will blink when that the camera is recording.
Zoom direction reprogramming may be done practically unlimited number of times (min. 100.000, times).
Push Auto Focus
Press the button to put the camera temporarily into Auto Focus mode.
As soon as you release the button the camera returns into manual focus mode.
This button has no effect, if camera is already working in Auto Focus mode.

PRECAUTIONS
Water resistivity
We put a lot of attention on making the LANC controller to be as much water resistant as possible, while maintaining its reasonable price.
However we cannot guarantee 100% water resistance under all circumstances and you should avoid using the controller under heavy environment
conditions like rain and over 95% humidity level.
High temperature
Avoid temperatures exceeding +70°C – especially do not leave the controller exposed for direct contact with heavy sun shines, e.g. in the car parked in
sunny place.
Electrical precaution
The cable is always one of the most easy breakable element of any electronic system, especially when as exposed to mechanical wear off.
Therefore to extend the life of your controller and make the basic “repair” as cheap as possible we decided to allow easy cable exchange.
However, to avoid accidental short circuiting the camera LANC connection, you must remember to always plug the cable to the controller first.
We advise you to not to remove the cable from the controller, if it is not necessary.
OPERATING SPECIFICATIONS

Storage temperature range -30° - +80°
Humidity rel. (non condensing) max. 95%

Collegamento alla testa video
Nota: la leva di comando è telescopica, regolabile con ghiera di bloccaggio.
Collegamento alla videocamera
MIN.
MAX.
Nota importante! Per prevenire il cortocircuito accidentale del
connettore LANC sulla videocamera, non scollegare MAI il
cavo dal lato del controllo remoto.

1. Spegnere la videocamera
2. Collegare l’altro capo del cavo alla presa LANC della
videocamera
Il controllo è progettato per funzionare esclusivamente con videocamere
che dispongano del connettore stereo LANC da 2,5 mm.
Non collegare mai il controllo a qualunque altro connettore simile che
non sia contrassegnato dal logo LANC , perché si potrebbe
danneggiare in maniera permanente il controllo e/o la videocamera!
Il controllo è progettato come sistema autonomo di controllo per
videocamere e non consente il funzionamento simultaneo con altri
dispositivi di controllo.
3. Accendere la videocamera: ora potete iniziare ad usare il controllo
Viene impostata la modalità della velocità di zoomata utilizzata la volta
precedente; l’impostazione corrente viene visualizzata da uno dei LED
dello zoom. Il LED della massima velocità di zoomata “Progressiva”
dovrebbe accendersi, per indicare che è selezionata la modalità di
velocità progressiva e la massima velocità dello zoom è limitata dalla
velocità preimpostata numero 3.
La mancata accensione del LED indica problemi con l’alimentazione del
controllo. Il lento lampeggio del LED indica problemi di comunicazione
LANC. In entrambi i casi controllare le connessioni via cavo tra
videocamera e controllo.
Il controllo è progettato per funzionare esclusivamente con videocamere
che dispongano del connettore stereo LANC da 2,5 mm. Non collegare
mai il controllo a qualunque altro connettore simile che non sia
contrassegnato dal logo LANC, perché si potrebbe danneggiare in
maniera permanente il controllo e/o la videocamera!
Il controllo è progettato come sistema autonomo di controllo per
videocamere e non consente il funzionamento simultaneo con altri
