Connecting the AJ-EC3 Extension Control Unit (Option)

Connecting the AJ-EC3 extension control unit (option) allows a portion of the camera section
functions to be operated by remote control.
When the AJ-EC3 is connected and the POWER switches of the unit and AJ-EC3 are set to ON,
the unit automatically enters remote control mode.
The handling instructions included with the AJ-EC3 describe operations for when the AJ-EC3 is
connected to an AQ series digital camera.
When the AJ-EC3 is connected to the AJ-D910WB, some functions differ, and some features
cannot be used.

Notes

{

The POWER switches of the unit and AJ-EC3 must be set to OFF before the 6-pin cable is
connected or disconnected.

When OFF has been set for ECU DATA SAVE on the SUB menu CAMERA SW MODE page
of MAIN menu screen 2 of 4

All adjustments and settings made using the switches and controls on the menu setting section
of the AJ-EC3 are erased when the unit’s POWER switch is set to OFF. Neither is it possible to
save any of the adjustments and settings—except for the menu settings—performed using the
AJ-EC3’s switches and controls on the setup card. However, when the AJ-EC3 is connected
again, these settings return to the AJ-EC3 settings.
(Menu contents set with the menu setting section are saved.)
For use in this mode, set the POWER switch on the AJ-EC3 to the OFF position before the
unit’s POWER switch is set to OFF. If the unit’s POWER switch is set to OFF before the
POWER switch on the AJ-EC3 is set to the OFF position, the adjustments and settings per-
formed when the AJ-EC3 was operated will be saved instead.

When ON has been set for ECU DATA SAVE on the SUB menu CAMERA SW MODE page
of MAIN menu screen 2 of 4

The adjustments and settings performed using the switches and controls on the AJ-EC3’s
menu setting area will not be lost even when the unit’s POWER switch is set to the OFF
position.

Note

{

The functions of the AJ-EC3 are limited as follows.

(If the menu settings are changed while the AJ-EC3 is connected to the AJ-D910WB, the new
menu settings are saved automatically as soon as the changes are made.)

3, 0 and 9 correspond to L, M and H, and the
