DATABUS INTERFACE
Data interface between magazine and camera. Ensure the contacts are kept clean
and protected from damage. Keep the protective cover on when the magazine is
being stored or transported.
FILM TAB HOLDER
Holds an ID tab from the film roll pack as a reminder of the type of film loaded.
Remember to change it if you change film type!
FILM HOLDER KEY
Secures the film holder in the magazine. Fold out the key and turn counter-clock-
wise 90° to remove the film holder and turn clockwise 90˚ to lock the film holder
in place.
MAGAZINE SETTINGS LOCK
All settings can be locked to avoid inadvertent changes. To change the settings,
slide the settings lock (see illus) to the right until it stops. After the changes have
been made, slide the settings lock to the left (see symbol on magazine) again to
secure the new settings.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
Release the film holder by folding out the film holder key and rotating it 90° in a
counter-clockwise direction. Withdraw the film holder completely. On the bottom
plate on the inside of the film magazine housing you will find a slotted circular
battery cover. Insert a small coin or similar into the slot and rotate the cover about
20° in a counter-clockwise direction. The cover will be freed and the battery can
be removed. Replace with a fresh CR2032 / 3V lithium (or equivalent) battery. Ob-
serve the polarity and ensure the positive (+) face is uppermost and replace the
cover (ensure the retaining lugs are inserted in the battery compartment slots),
locking it into place by rotating it in a clockwise direction until it stops. If you in-
advertently insert the battery incorrectly, the film magazine will not be damaged
though it will not function. Try to avoid touching the surface of the battery with
your bare fingers as sweat residue can decrease the electrical conductivity of the
battery casing and might cause corrosion.
After battery replacement, the magazine’s parameters return to the default set-
tings (Barcode, 120, Data-on, Count up).
BATTERY
The magazine uses a battery to retain information and settings when unattached
from the camera. When attached to the camera body, the magazine takes its pow-
er requirements from the camera batteries. The magazine battery will normally
be effective for 1-2 years depending on use (off camera illumination, for example).
When the battery is in a very low condition, (approx. 1 month of use left), a low-
battery symbol appears on the magazine LCD as a warning. The magazine will
continue to function with no battery power left as long as it remains attached to
the camera body. However, when detached, the settings will not be stored.
