Appendix

iv Viper
To ensure continual high performance from the camcorder take the
following precautions into consideration:
Important Precautions
Avoid very damp places. If the environment is wet
or damp a rain cover must be used to protect the
unit.
Do not subject the unit to severe shocks or vibration.
Do not expose the camera to extremes of
temperature.
Do not leave the unit in direct sunlight or close to
heating appliances for extended periods.
Do not allow sunlight to shine into the viewfinder.

03.18.5 v
Warning
If the camera is in a wet or damp environment, a rain cover must be
used to protect it for personal safety reasons (EN60065). The optional
rain cover protects the camera according to safety specification
EN60529 up to level IPX2 (spraying water).
FCC Class A Statement
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause interference to radio communications.
It has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class A
digital device pursuant to part 15 of FCC rules, which are designed to
provide reasonable protection against such interference when oper-
ated in a commercial environment.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause
interference in which case the user at his own expense will be required
to take whatever measures may be required to correct the interference.

1-2 FilmStream mode Viper
To operate in the FilmStream mode you must ensure that the camera
is switched to this mode. The output signals and the control functions
that are available depend on the mode you select.
The factory default for the mode setting is the FilmStream mode, so
normally you do not have to switch modes to operate the camera as
a digital film camera.
If a different mode has been set up, then you need to switch to the
FilmStream mode by changing a menu setting (for more details refer
to Section 5).
To change modes:
1. Open the menu system.
2. Go to the Install menu.
3. Select Output mode item.
4. Change the value to FilmStream or HDStream.
The camera remembers the last selected mode, so it remains in the
FilmStream mode even when switched off and on again.
Monitoring
To provide a monitoring signal for viewing, a separate channel is used
which undergoes some video processing to make it acceptable for
viewing on monitors and viewfinders. Although derived from the same
sensor signals, this channel is entirely separate from the main FilmStream
output.
The Viper does not have any adjustable visual parameters for the
FilmStream outputs. Framing, focussing, exposure setting, shutter
angle and optical filtering are the only operations required of the
camera and lens operators.
