5. Connect the assembly to the SR-3 (see illustration for
mounting and positioning details). Tighten the black ring.
6. Tighten the headpiece dovetail adjustment.
7. Connect and apply power to the Color Six . Using a high-
quality monitor, adjust the focus control on the Arri optics.
8. Center the picture using the three set screws above the black
ring. The set screw nearest the front of the camera is the lock
or tension adjustment: The other two set screws adjust
picture position.
Note: Some tension is necessary to make the
system work.
9. Complete the centering and rotation adjustments using the
controls on the Color Six as described on pages 8-9. Iris
adjustments are made using the Arri optics.
10. When used with an Arri SR-3, the Color Six may be powered
by connecting the 3-pin Fischer connector to one of the
convenience outlets on the base of the film camera using a
special cable available from CEI.
Note—If powered from the 11-pin Fischer con-
nector on the SR-3 12V adapter, no shutter
pulse will be present, so the Color Six will not
be able to track the camera speed and pro-
duce flicker-free video.

Super 16mm

In order to increase the viewing area of the system for Super
16mm, a second 2.75 mm red spacer, available from CEI,
needs to be added between the Color Six and Arri optics.
