OVERVIEW

The REDMOTE is a remote camera control unit for the DSMC that attaches to the rear of the BRAIN or other

expansion module. When detached from the DSMC, the REDMOTE provides wireless camera control using the

proprietary REDLINK protocol. Whether attached or operating wirelessly, the REDMOTE provides access to all

necessary DSMC controls, including record start/stop, Shutter Speed, White Balance, ISO, and programmable

User Keys. The color LCD displays critical camera settings, including media and battery capacity, timecode and

clip name, lens data and exposure information.
The REDMOTE has a rechargeable Lithium Ion battery that automatically recharges when docked to the camera

or other module. It can also be recharged using the built-in USB 2.0 connector. Under typical operating

conditions, the REDMOTE provides up to eight (8) hours of battery life and supports wireless communication at

a range of approximately 50 ft. The REDMOTE supports 16 (0-15) wireless channels ranging from 2.4 GHz to

2.4835 GHz. The default channel is 0.
IMPORTANT: To operate properly, upgrade both REDMOTE and DSMC firmware to the most recent version.
