Locking the Film Type Via the Keypad

The film type must always be selected in the software and it must match the film loaded
into the recorder to ensure proper color balance and exposure. If the recorder is on a
network, it may be inconvenient for remote users to confirm which film type is currently
loaded into the recorder. If so, you can "lock in" the film type you have just loaded using
the keypad. Doing so will prevent users from making exposures on the incorrect film type
(an error message will alert the user).
When the film type is "unlocked" (not selected via the keypad), no error message is sent.
In this case, remote users should check which film is loaded before imaging.
To lock the film type:
1. Press the Escape key to reach the Change Setup menu.
2. Press the Down key until "Lock Film Type?" is displayed. Press the Select
key. "*Unlocked" or the name of the currently locked film is displayed.
3. Press the Down (or Up ) key to display the film type that is currently loaded.
Or, select Unlocked to allow any film type to be selected in the software.
4. Press the Select key to enter the selection. An asterisk (*) will appear next to
your selection to indicate it has been selected. Press Escape twice to return to
the Ready message.
