Insert the digital media, such as RED-FLASH 8GB or 16GB compact flash (CF) card, or connect
a RED-DRIVE hard disk drive, or RED-RAM flash drive via the RED custom e-SATA cable.
Inserting a Compact Flash card
Attach a RED-BRICK 140 battery using the v-mount battery plate, or connect an AC Power
Adaptor or a RED-CHARGER to the DC input on the rear of the camera body. Now adjust the
balance of the camera. The RED CRADLE/Universal Rail mount unit slides on 19mm rods so you
can adjust the distance to the camera back. Find the position that best offsets the weight of the
lens.
Finally tighten the butterfly locks to maintain that position. The shoulder pad/wedge plate adap-
tor is also designed to slide within the RED RAIL base plate until you lock it in place. You won't
need to remove it to mount the camera on a tripod.
Power up.
Press the On/Off switch to power the camera. The rear status display will illuminate, and after
approximately 60 seconds it will display the camera PIN, firmware build and firmware version.
The P.I.N is a unique product identification number in the format ABC_123_XYZ. This code is in-
cluded in the metadata recorded with each image. The PIN provides RED with tracking data for
customer service and assistance in authenticating legal ownership of the camera.
When the camera is ready for use, the lower LED to the right of the status display turns green.
