MDR.ACI  Assistant Camera Interface for RED® DSMC2®

MDR.ACI optimizes camera settings access for assistants and operators, and provides integrated Power + Control for Teradek RT Wireless FIZ systems (up to 3-channel Focus / Iris / Zoom). This module connects to the assistant side of RED DSMC2 cameras and offers an intuitive menu interface that transforms internal settings configuration into an efficient, easy-to-use experience. Please Note: MDR.ACI is not yet compatible with TOF.1 Rangefinder.

Camera Settings Control

MDR.ACI eliminates the need for touchscreen navigation by offering a daylight-viewable LCD menu with tactile push-buttons and jog wheel menu control. Integrated DSMC2 control enables users to adjust and operate internal camera settings such as record start/stop, frame rate, shutter speed, resolution, compression ratios, color configuration and much more with a familiar, user-friendly interface.

Customizable LCD & Menu Configuration

User Buttons are fully customizable and can be programmed for quick access to preferred camera settings. LCD brightness can be adjusted for sunny daylight scenarios or dim interior/night shoots; users can choose between two UI themes that are optimized for bright and dark environments.
