RED DIGITAL CINEMA DSMC2 BRAIN with HELIUM 8K S35 Sensor (2018 Unified DSMC2 Lineup) - Manual (Page 91)

PRIORITY
The camera can only have one (1) control monitor for interacting with camera settings. The Priority tab determines the
order in which a monitor becomes the control monitor. If you plan on removing or adding monitors during a shoot, set
up the priority list ahead of time.
For a monitor to become the control monitor, the following must occur:
The monitor must be set to Overlay mode in the Monitor Control menu.
Each monitor that has higher priority on the list must be either detached or not set to Overlay mode.
EXAMPLE
By default, the monitor priority is:
1. LCD
2. EVF
3. HDMI
If you remove an LCD when an EVF is attached, then the EVF becomes the control monitor. If you then remove the
EVF when an HDMI monitor is attached, the HDMI monitor becomes the control monitor. If you then re-attach the LCD,
then the LCD is the control monitor again.
TEST SIGNAL
Use the Test Signal menu to replace the video monitor outputs with one of the following video test patterns:
Chip Chart
SMPTE Bars
Luma
NOTE: Test signals are not recordable; they are provided to help align external HD-SDI and HDMI monitors.
AUDIO TONE
To apply an audio tone, follow the instructions below:
1. Go to Menu > Monitoring > Test Signals .
2. Toggle Tone On/Off.
LOOK AROUND
To enable Look Around, go to Menu > Monitoring > Look Around .
When Look Around is enabled, the Frame Guide and recording area are scaled down on the display so that you can
see what images will enter the recording area.
To assign a Shading overlay to the Look Around area (the area outside of the recording area), go to "Guides" on
page 100 .
Look Around limits the available frame rates. At high resolutions, the recording area on the display shows the full
sensor area or full sensor height, so there is no extra room for Look Around.
Look Around may affect the recorded file:
R3D : Only the area inside the frame is recorded; the Look Around area is NOT recorded.
Apple ProRes : The full image is recorded, including the Look Around area.
Avid DNxHD/HR : The full image is recorded, including the Look Around area.
