25.2 Lens Motors

The ALEXA Mini LF supports the use of cforce mini and cforce plus lens motors. Lens motors are

connected to the LBUS connector of the lens mount and can be daisy chained. The motors can be hot

plugged, no need to switch off the camera.

When connecting a cforce plus motor to the camera please make

sure that the LBUS connector(s) on both motor and lens mount

are equipped with a silver washer placed below the red nut (2) of

the connector.
If the LBUS connectors on either cforce plus motor or lens mount

(or both) miss the silver washer (1), the cforce plus motor needs

to be supplied with external power (e.g. D-Tap from a battery

adapter plate) in order to ensure proper performance.
Note: cforce mini motors are not affected and can always be

powered through the lens mount.
