11 Installation Shoulder Set S-3 The shoulder set S-3 has adjustable grips and an integrated shoulder pad which allows comfortable hand-held camera operation.
Power Supply 12.
13 Power Supply 3. Power Supply The camera is intended for use with 24 V DC. The acceptable voltage ranges are from 20 to 32 V DC. If the voltage trops below 18 V or rises above 34 V, a protective device prevents the camera from being turned on.
Power Supply 14 Charger NCL 24 R For all 24 V batteries. To charge the on-board batteries NC 24/1,2 the charger-adapter cable KC 38 is required. For use see product description NCL 24 R. Double Charger NCL 24/1,2 To enable two on-board batteries to be charged simulta- neously.
15 Power Supply DC/DC Converter 24V/12V -22W The DC/DC converter 24V/12V-22W provides DC voltage for 12V accessories through the camera ’ s power supply.
Magazines 16 4. Magazines Coaxial magazines with or without TC recording unit (time code) are available. They are designed as quick-change magazines and use the same mechanical drive interface as previous 16SR systems. For the HS camera (high speed) special HS magazines are available with or without the TC-recording unit.
17 Magazines Never close the door when the locking latch is in position „ closed “ as otherwise the latch could be damaged. Never hold the magazine by the door as otherwise the hinge could be damaged. Removing the Loop Protector • Using slight pressure push the loop protector upwards.
Magazines 18 • • F ilm Core, Core Holder and Clamp Core A film core adapter and a collapsible core are supplied with the camera; these are placed on the supply and take-up film spindles. The film is normally delivered on a core. The film core is attaches to the core adapter on the feed side.
19 Magazines Film Head Regardless of how the film head is cut, the film can always be loaded. Optimal for loading is a straight cut through the perforation holes. When cutting the film ensure that no remains of the film fall into the magazine as they could cause scratches on the film, damage to the equipment or a film jam.
Magazines 20 Loading the Film, Feed Side Feel for the opening for threading. • Guide the film head into the opening and carefully push it further into the opening. Simultaneously feel on the gear when the film engages with the internal sprocket. • Be sure thast dual perforations is correctly loaded (emulsion side inward, B winding).
21 Magazines • pressure plate. • Hold the gear to keep the loop length stable. Push the film head gently into the smooth take-up channel (picture next page) until it engages with the take-up sprocket.

V ideo-Assist-System 78 Note: If the video carrying handle remains on the camera when dismounting, the opening on the carrying handle should be closed over with the supplied protec- tive cover.
79 V ideo-Assist-System Note: The focussing area of the video optic can be shifted by the gear on the video camera. Positions on delivery (looking at the left side of the camera): Normal 16: Focus is almost at the stop position turning clockwise. Super 16: Focus is almost at the stop position turning counter-clockwise.
Time Code 80 12. Time Code In modern electronic post-production time code is often used today. Quartz-synchronized film, sound and video recordings have been made possible through the use of equipment with TC-capability. The ARRIFLEX 16SR 3 is equipped with a TC generator which produces 80bit time code corresponding to SMPTE RP136, Format Type C.
81 Time Code The TC-Symbol has the following meaning: Run Standby TC-Symbol off TC-Symbol blinks TC-Symbol on TC-recording is turned off. Since the last setting of time code or since the last synchronisation more than 8 hours have passed.
Time Code 82 TC-Output TC information is constantly available as 80bit LTC on the CCU socket and in Standby also on the ACC socket. Both outputs 5 V asymmetrical. Through the TC-output TC-compatible equipment can be synchronized on the set once (for 8 hours) on the camera ’ s time code or constantly supplied with time code by the camera.
83 Time Code Time Code and ESU-1 Also when using the external synchronization unit ESU-1 for synchronizing the camera to other equipment, time code can be recorded. Before attaching the external synchronization unit the TC generator the frame rate must be set to the expected frame rate.
Time Code 84 Indicating Time Code or User Bits • Using the MODE key switch to Mode 4 (time code time) or Mode 5 (time code user bits). The time code time indicator will indicate hours:minutes in the upper line and seconds:frame rate in the lower line.
85 Time Code Description Type TCS Kodak Eastman 7222 BW-negative 8 7231 BW-negative 9 7239 Colour reversal 5 7240 Colour reversal 6 7245 Colour negative 6 7248 Colour negative 6 7250 Colour negative 5.
Time Code 86 TC Buffer The ARRIFLEX 16SR 3 ensures not only high accuracy of the time code but also allows the TC clock to continue running while the camera is switched off as long as the camera is connected to a power supply. The TC genera- tor needs a power supply of 10mA if the camera is switched off.
87 Maintenance 13. Maintenance Replacing the Magazine Drive Gear Damaged magazine drive gears must be replaced as they cause noise. • Open the magazine on the take-up side. • Unscrew the 3 screws on the magazine gear. • Replace the gear. • Ensure that the gear has been replaced with the arrows visible.
88 Maintenance magazine with magazine throat removed magazine throat.
89 Maintenance • Remove the magazine throat assembly . The gear drum and film channel will become visible. • Possibly emulsion or film scraps are in the interior. Clean carefully. Under no circumstances blow substances away! Remove deposits from the film with The ARRI plastic film track cleaning rod or with a paper towel and some spirits.
90 Maintenance Necessary Special Tools Depth gauge for PL-mount or Depth gauge A 16 SR-18 Depth gauge cylinder A 16 SR-19 Depth gauge base A 16 SR-20 Depth gauge plate A 16 SR-21 Checking the Flange Focal Distance • Adjust the depth gauge with the gauge cylinder on the gauge base to „ 0 “ .
