Initial set up + connection

The Teradek RT system is quite straight forward to get up and running. Below is an example of setting up our standard MK3.1 kit.

MK3.1 3 channel setup:

1. Attach Receiver to camera rig/ setup. You can do this using the receiver bracket which mounts onto bars or an alternative method such as dual lock. The receiver has a standard 1/4" thread on the base so you can use third part accessories.
2. Attach Motors to the rig. If you are already aware of the FIZ class make sure you select the correct motor for the assigned channel. Please be aware that they will begin to move and auto calibrate on power up. If using PL lenses with hard stops make sure they are well attached with no flex. If using EF/ Nikon lens or lenses with no hard stops make sure the motor is unmeshed before power up. You will need to fake stop the gear by hand. 
3. Plug in camera cable for run stop.
4. Plug in motor cables. 
5. Plug in power cable. 
6. The motors will begin to auto calibrate. If using lenses without hard stops you will need to fake stop the gears.
7. Insert battery into Controller and turn on.
8. Connection, a green LED means the Controller is connected to the Receiver. An orange LED means that they are not currently connected. You can either select 'find receiver' on the Controller's menu and it will search or you can plug in a wired mode cable. This will give a hard wire connection and the LED will turn blue. 
9. You can now alter the motor 'Class' and axis control if necessary.  
10. When connected (solid green LED) you can change settings on the Controller such as 'Motor Class', 'Wireless Channel' and 'Wireless Power' and it will carry the setting across to Receiver unit as well as Motor (if applicable)

Below is an example of connecting a Latitude MDR-M receiver on a DSMC2 camera body for use with EF internal motors.

Latitude MDR-M EF internal motor setup:

1. Attach Receiver to camera rig/ setup. You can do this using the receiver bracket which mounts onto bars or an alternative method such as dual lock. The receiver has a standard 1/4" thread as well as 2 x unthreaded larger holes so you can use third part accessories.
2. Plug in power cable to receiver.
3. Make sure internal GPIO camera settings are correct. RCP is selected. 
4. Make sure EF lens is switched to 'AF'
5. Plug camera CTRL cable into the receiver and CTRL port on DSMC2. The Latitude's LED should flash Cyan to show that it has successfully communicated with the DSMC2 camera.
6. Insert battery into Controller and turn on.
7. Connection, a green LED means the Controller is connected to the Receiver. An orange LED means that they are not currently connected. You can either select 'find receiver' on the Controller's menu and it will search or you can plug in a wired mode cable. This will give a hard wire connection and the LED will turn blue. Please note that the Latitude LED will be green whether connected or not connected. 
8. You should now be able to control the Focus and Iris internal motors of the EF lens via the hand Controller. If this is not the case please check your Controller's INPUT/ AXIS settings.
