3.3 System Overview
The illustration on the left page provides an overview of
the entire system with the various units, their relation to
each other, and which cables are used to connect the units.
For typical examples of use please see the following pages.
With the various manual control units, up to 3 lens motors
can be controlled via cable or radio. The camera can be
started or stopped with the units
• ZMU (Zoom Main Unit) (via cable)
• and WMU-1, WMU-2 or WMU-3 via radio.
3.3.1 Motor Units
The LCS enables a maximum of three lens motors to be
controlled via the manual control units. The CLM-1 motors
are particularly useful for stiff lenses, they can be operated
with either a power cable LC-S1 (S2, S3, S4), the UMC-1, a
LDB or a FEM-2. The CLM-2 motors are particularly useful
for configurations in restricted spaces or if weight is
critical. The CLM-2 motors can only be operated together
with the UMC-1, the FEM-2 or a LDB.

3.3.2 Manual Control Units
Remote Control via Cable
For remote control via cable a ZMU can be used. This is either
connected to the UMC-1, a LDB, the FEM-2 or a CLM-1
motor. If iris and/or focus are to be controlled, up to two
Focus Iris Units FIU-1 can be attached to the ZMU. With
the ARRICAM the Remote Control Station, the Studio LDB
Adapter and the WHA-2 or WHA-3 are available for
cable remote control. With the ARRIFLEX 435 Advanced
the WHA-2 or WHA-3 can also be used on the FEM-2.
Remote Control via Radio
To remotely control via radio at least one WMU is necessary.
A maximum of three WMU can be operated simultaneously.
For the lens motors a UMC-1 with an attached URM, or a
LDB or a FEM-2 with URM is always necessary. On the
WMU units can be attached to control the lens zoom ring
(WZU-1 or WZU-3), and the focus ring and/or iris ring
(WFU-1, WFU-3). All three lens rings can be remotely
controlled with one or with several Wireless Main Units in
radio network operation.
