3.2 Operating Note
The slate can be used to show the camera the userbits before rolling over. This is
done by pressing the RED button under the clapstick. This will become useful in the
near future to display the Event number which is a unique number for each audio
recording in the userbits. This number can be slated to the camera in advance thus
showing the event number on film like the take number written on the slate.
Alternatively, the slate will show UB automatically when opened if DIP-switch 12 is
down.
3.3 Large Writing Sleeve
Due to users requests we offer a larger writing sleeve for the ACD master slate. The
width is a standard 11 inches „Fits in a front box“ and the surface is covered with a
non reflective laser engraved label. Standard boxes are etched in the surface.
Note: The writing surface is similar to Formica and can be dry wiped clean. If
the surface gets grey after frequent use it can be cleaned occasionally with
spirits or acetone.
Note: Too much cleaning with acetone or agressive solvents may damage the
writing surface!!
