APPENDIX F: 3D SETUP / OPERATION 
OVERVIEW 
The following information outlines basic procedures to connect two RED DSMC cameras together in a 
Master / Slave configuration for 3D operation, operation of cameras in Master / Slave configuration and 
clip naming conventions for clips recorded on those cameras. The MASTER camera will control only the 
METADATA parameters of both cameras. On the SLAVE camera, any other setting outside of these will 
need to be manually changed before recording. 
CAMERA SETUP 
Select one camera to be designated as Master and a second to be designated as Slave. 
NOTE: Cameras can also be set up in a MASTER / MASTER and SLAVE / SLAVE configuration. To 
set as MASTER / MASTER  select ALL under TARGET for both cameras. This will allow either 
camera to make METADATA  changes and control record start/stop of both cameras. To set as 
SLAVE / SLAVE select NONE under TARGET for both cameras.  This allows each camera to 
control its own METADATA.  
MASTER CAMERA 
Perform the following steps on the Master camera: 
1.  Go to SECONDARY MENUS > SETTINGS > SETUP > COMMUNICATION > NAME  and give the 
camera a unique NAME (CAM A, LEFT, etc…). 
2.  Under TARGET select ALL. 
3.  Give the camera a unique IP address. 
4.  Go to SLAVE CAMERA.
