White Radio Configuration
The camera has an integrated radio unit via which the ARRI HI-5,
WCU-4 and SXU-1 hand held units can be connected to the cam-
era. It enables wireless lens control, lens data communication
and remote control of basic camera functions. The radio system
is referred to as white radio. The connector for the white radio an-
tenna is located on the right side of the camera (1).
In order to assume a correct wireless operation, please ensure
that the white radio antenna is installed correctly on the camera.
Electrostatic Discharge on Open Connector.
The White Radio module might be damaged by electrostatic discharge when leaving the
connector without antenna attached.
Do not leave the antenna connectors open during operation or transport.
Use only the type of antenna originally supplied.

To connect a hand unit to the camera set the hand unit's radio channel to the same value. Make
sure that each camera on set uses its own white radio channel. It is not supported that one hand
unit connects to two cameras in parallel.
