DISCLAIMER While the IFLIGHT G15 does not require a license to use, please regard this as advanced cinema gear that must be handled with caution and good judgment. A basic understanding of mechanical functions is needed in order to operate the IFLIGHT G15 safely and responsibly.
Please save the profile before you change any settings After IFLIGHT G15 is correctly balanced with your camera setup, it is ready for use. First, install battery on to handle where the Velcro is. Plug battery into the power connector,and the gimbal is on,Hold the IFLIGHT G15 still while powering on, as to avoid improper start up.
STEP 1: HORIZONTAL TILT/VERTICAL TILT The centre of gravity needs to be balance before IFLIGHT G15 can be used. The centre of gravity can be adjusted by moving the camera around and certain mounting points. Little movements are all that are needed. Proper balancing is essential to correct operation of IFLIGHT G15 gimbal.
STEP 3: PAN BALANCE The pan balance is the last axis to balance for the IFLIGHT G15. The Pan Balance will ensure that the entire mass below the pan motor is balanced on the central axis line of the pan motor. The simplest way to check for your Pan Axis to be balanced is to tilt the gimbal in the stand and see which way the Pan Axis swings.
V. PROGRAM MODES The IFLIGHT G15 has 5 pre-programmed operating modes. These different modes affect how the gimbal controller behaves. These modes do not affect operating position (i.e. inverted mode, briefcase mode). For more information on operating positions, see section VIII below.
VI. OPERATING POSITIONS The IFLIGHT G15 can operate in many positions, allowing you to get shots from down low and up high or even mount the gimbal to a tripod or crane. These operating positions can be changed very quickly by cycling the gimbals power. The gimbal can operate in all five of the program modes while in any of these operating positions.
