Aladin is the user-friendly remote control.
Carry out automatic calibration of the lens parameters at the beginning of shooting – switch off, reconfigurate or change the battery – switch on again and resume the shooting. All settings are done through menus and push button or joy stick. The OLED colour display still operates at -20°C/-4°F. These advantages are especially appreciated in practice.
Aladin Mark II main features:
Control signals are transmitted as digital data packages in the 434 / 869 MHz bandsafely and precisely with 18-bit resolution.
Suitable for many motors with digital incremental encoders such as Heden M26VE,Scorpio SB92, Preston DM2, Betz Tools BTM7.
Unique - adjustable back-lash compensation - eliminates play!
Controls in S3D mode 8 motors, synchronously two cameras’ Iris, focus and zoom,automates the rig setting for angulation(convergence), IA (inter axial distance)and communicates with Sony MPE 200.
Controls digital Canon and Fujinon lens motors directly through the 2 auxiliaryports, if required synchronously, too.
USB port for meta data recording, software update and lens-, rig-data handling.
2 serial interfaces for PC interaction
Controls the dimmers Aladin Light Source (AL-LS) and Colibri, the DMXdimmer/receiver (FD-400E).
Excellent safe transmission distance* inside through thick walls and outside withmetal structures, better performance than transmission in the GHz-range offers.
ON/OFF or start/stop recording function integrated for all suitable cameras.
With “Electronic Gear” for free selection of the translation between the hand wheelmovement and the reaction at the lens (spreading).
Memory of last settings after switch off for quick resumption of operation.
Wide supply-voltage range from 10 to 34 volts for the motor controller (receiver).
Power is stabilized and adjustable in 5 steps.Powerful performance for the motorsalso with low supply. The torque will be automatically adjusted during calibration.
Modular design, each individual function can be combined into one transmitterthrough simple assembly. Here, too, all the last individual settings are saved.
Reverse direction of the motor rotation is adjustable on the hand-units(transmitters) and on the receiver / motor controller.
A LED column shows the position of the zoom.
Lowest energy consumption of the hand-unit(s), a battery usually lasts for theentire day of shooting.
16 channels selectable for the transmission by push of a button.RF Spectrumanalyzer to find the best channel for transmission and optical feedback that bothunits work on the same one.
Adjustable fluid damping for the focus hand wheel.
Emergency feature: Transmission by connecting transmitter and receiver using astandard video cable with BNC plugs.
