  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Remote start/stop

Remote Start / Stop

Remote Start / Stop

Build 10 and 11 firmware also support record start / stop using the upper of the two 4 pin LEMO connectors on the camera back.

Provide a trigger pulse by shorting pin 1 (ground) to pin 2 (GPI) momentarily.

An appropriate connector is LEMO FGG.0B.304.CLAD42Z

Connector pin out is in Appendix A of the latest Operations Guide at www.red.com/support

I am having trouble finding someone who has the connectors.

It looks like the same connector as the 'mini-monitor' connector on Arri video taps. Correct me if I am wrong, but you may be able to cannibalize one of those cables eaiser than finding an immediate source for the connector.
 
Mouser has the parts. Search by the lemo part number listed in the Reduser guide. You have to order the proper collet and strain relief in addition to the plug.


FGG.0B.304.CLAD42Z
style.shellsize.30+number of contacts. CLA= solder . collet diameter= 42 (3.1mm-4.0mm). Z= needs a collet.

they do. FGG.0B.742.DN is the part number for the collet. They appear to be in stock for everything you need.

heres the link: http://www.mouser.com/search/refine.aspx?Ntt=736-FGG0B742DN

so you need (mouser part numbers):

736-FGG0B304CLAZ (plug)
736-FGG0B742DN (collet)
736-GMA0B035DN (bend relief)
OR
736-GMA0B040DN depending on how big your wire is.
 
In an emergency? CAT-5 or telephone line! Or carving up a USB cable!

Radio shack has some options.

If I have my choice, I get some Canare. I don't have any part numbers from them. Try to find an electronics shop, and ask them about what small gauge, 4 conductor wire they have in stock. You will need a fine tip soldering iron and a steady hand.

Look at your other cables that are similar size, and try and find a part number for it.
 
Good to see you on here Jim!

Glad to be here. I have been contacted by several Red owners regarding purchase of my wireless follow focus with their RED cameras so I thought I'd drop in.

We share the same philosophy: Professional quality equipment shouldn't have to cost a fortune to do the job. It is amazing how much resistance that idea gets.
