User Setups 103
22 User Setups
A user setup is a profile of the current settings on the camera that can be saved on camera and/or to
a USB memory stick. User setups can be given custom names, saved to the USB memory stick and
loaded onto multiple cameras. Rather than resetting the camera to its factory default settings, a user
setup can be used to reset the camera to a user's default settings.
User setups can be used to ensure that cameras on multi-camera shoots have matching settings, or to
transfer a show’s setup onto daily cameras, to ensure they carry the same shooting specifications.
You can also import user setups into the camera from a USB medium and export user setups to a USB
medium.
Saving a User Setup
You can save the current setup configuration in the camera or on the USB medium.
1. Select MENU > Setup > User Setups Installed > Save to save the setup in the camera.
Select MENU > Setup > User Setups on USB > Save to save the setup on the USB medium.
2. Use the onscreen keyboard to enter a name for the user setup and press SAVE.
A screen is displayed to select the setup parameter blocks. You have the following options:
General

User
3. Select one or more options and press CONFIRM.
The camera stores the user setup.
Loading a User Setup
You can load user setups stored on the camera or on a USB medium.
In case you are using the ARRI WCU-4 unit, you can trigger the loading of internally stored setups from
there.
1. Select MENU > Setup > User Setups Installed to load a setup from the camera.
Select MENU > Setup > User Setups on USB to load a setup from the USB medium.
2. Select a user setup from the list and press LOAD.
A popup window with the parameter blocks of this user setup is displayed.
3. Press CONFIRM.
The camera loads the selected user setup and shows a result message. The popup highlights the
parameters that you should check in case certain parameters could not be loaded.
Factory Reset
You can reset the camera to the ARRI factory default values.
1. Select MENU > Setup > Factory Reset.
You are asked to confirm the reset.
2. Press RESET.
Note: A factory reset does not delete user setups stored/installed on camera.
