Hey guys, right now I'm on a shoot in Austria. (Cmotion Pro Handunit, 1x Cforce mini motor, 1x Cforce mini RF motor) Unfortunately they didn't have the CAM Cable to connect the RF motor with the ARRI Alexa mini. So I can´t do any camera controls or Start/Stop. (I run the system with 1x LBUS Cable and a LBUS to Dtap Cable) Also, the firmware haven't been updated yet so digital marks weren't enabled. I updated the Handunited to enable the mark function and wants to do it also on the motors. But it was not possible to power the mini RF motor AND hardwire with the hand unit to update them. (BECAUSE THE CAM CABLE IS MISSING) Is there any option to update the Mini RF Motor without a CAM Cable? Thanks!
Hey Peter, Unfortunately the CAM to LBUS cable is required to update the motor. Also make sure, that the hand unit and motor are running on the same software. Where in Austria are you operating? Maybe we can send you a CAM to LBUS cable. I will send you a PM.
Sorry, do I understand well that the cPRO Handunit is compatible with the ARRI cforceRF motor? I thought it was only compatible with the cPRO motor? Or is Peter actually using a cPRO motor but calling it a cforce RF?
