2. Introduction & Basic Usage

A. General Description

ProtonPackisabackpack-worncameraaccessoriesplatform.Itprovidesmountingoptionsfor:

• Batteries (gold mount or v-mount)

• MDR

• Wireless HD Transmitter

• Timecode generator

• Cinetape readout

• Focus Monitor

Handheld shooting and cramped spaces often require cameras to be made as small as possible.

DPs often request that the camera be completely stripped-down. Proton Pack provides a solution to

accomplishthesebuildswithoutcompromisetonormalwork-ow.

Velcro surfaces and cheeseplates allow attachment for all of your professional accessories.

Camera builds can now be reduced to only body, lens, & focus motor. Proton Pack’s power system is

ready for 14v or 28v cameras and provides regulated 13v breakout power (2x p-tap & 2x Lemos) for all

peripherals.

IdealforworkingwithArriAlexaMini,RedDSMC2,andlmcameras,ProtonPackisacomplete

system providing all custom umbilical cables and accessories you will need for any build.

B. Basic Usage

• Begin by choosing the appropriate power pigtail for your camera system. For any camera that can

accept ±12v DC power the “14v” pigtails are always preferred as they maintain hot-swapability when

changing batteries. Pick the “14v” 4pin XLR or 3pin XLR pigtail based on the power cable included with

your camera*. For ±24vcamerasystems(35mmlm,AlexaLF/65,etc.)pickthe“28v”3pinXLRpigtail

• Install the power pigtail into the 6pin 2B Lemo “Camera Power” port on the Proton Pack main chassis.

• Strip down the camera body to the bare minimum of rigging (cage, baseplate, etc.). Leave only

essential accessories for shooting and operating (lens, monitor, focus motor, hand grips, etc.)

• Using Velcro or other brackets, mount all required peripherals

(Teradek/MDR/Cinetape/etc.) onto the Proton Pack frame

(Seeg.1foratypicalarrangement).

• Run power for all peripherals (using their standard power

cables) from the two 13v p-tap or two 13v 2pin Lemo ports

on the Proton Pack.

• Connect your camera power cable to the Proton Pack

Pigtail you installed earlier.

• Using the included long cables in your kit now make all

other connections between camera and Proton Pack. We

recommend starting at the camera side and taking up any

additional slack in the cables at the Proton Pack frame.

• Once the umbilical is fully assembled, we suggest attaching

the strain relief cable from umbilical to camera cage & also

securing the umbilical to the Proton Pack using the strain

relief loops at the bottom left or right corners.

• Attach batteries to both battery plates.

• Power on the camera and all accessories.

• With the Proton Pack worn by camera operator, AC or grip,

now begin shooting.

• Change batteries as needed when indicated by the yellow

“low voltage” LED.

3. Power System & Power Modes

A. Power System Introduction

Proton Pack can provide power for both 14v and 28v camera systems from the “camera power”

port on the main chassis. This mode is automatically selected when installing either a 14v or 28v power

pigtail cable. 14v mode has hot swap. In 28v mode there is NOT full hot swap when changing batteries.

Camera power is a direct pass-through from your battery plates. Voltage and ampacity will be

reectiveofthebatteriesinuse.

The system also has four built-in ports for

powering peripherals/accessories. There are

two Anton Bauer type p-tap ports and two

standard 2pin Lemo ports. All four outputs are

regulated at 13v DC and will provide that

voltage regardless of 14v or 24v voltage mode.

Hotswappingcanbeconguredina

“Priority”or“Parallel”protocolbyippingthe

small toggle switch located underneath “battery

plate2”(seeg.2).

g.2

B. 14v “Priority” Power Mode

This is the standard operating mode for your Proton Pack and it will ship to you with this mode pre-

selected. Choose this mode by installing one of the “14v” power pigtail cables and leaving the internal

toggle switch set to “A-->B” (right position).

In this mode your Proton Pack will always prioritize “battery plate 1” (left-hand) when there is a

healthy battery installed on that plate. “Battery plate 2” will constantly be kept in reserve as a backup if

the primary battery should die or be removed.

Only the LED on the battery plate actively supplying power will be illuminated in this mode.

C. 14v “Parallel” Power Mode

If battery plate prioritization is notdesired,yourProtonPackcanbereconguredtodrawfromboth

battery plates simultaneously. Choose this mode by installing one of the “14v” power pigtail cables and

changingtheinternaltoggleswitchto“A&B”(leftposition)(seeg.2).

In this mode the power system will actively favor whichever source has the higher voltage thus

draining both batteries in a relatively symmetrical pattern. Hot swap will function as normal whichever

battery is removed during a swap. It is recommended that batteries of approx. equal charge are used.

Both LEDs on the Proton Pack will be illuminated in this mode.

D. 28v Power Mode

Usethismodeforlmcamerasandlargercamerasystemsrequiring>24v.Choosethismodeby

installing the “28v” power pigtail (internal toggle switch has no effect in this mode). To achieve > 24v

bothbatteriesareconguredinseriessohotswapisNOTavailableinthismode.Make sure to safely

power down digital cameras before swapping batteries in 28v mode.

Both LEDs on the Proton Pack will be illuminated in this mode.

E. LED Indicators

There are two multi-color LEDs on the Proton Pack chassis, one for each battery input.

• GREEN = Good voltage ( >13v / >26v)

• YELLOW = Low voltage ( < 13v / < 26v)

• RED = Dead battery

• OFF = Battery not active or no battery present

• BLUE FLASH = Over current warning ( >10A camera, >5A accessories)

• RED FAST FLASH = Electrical system fault

• RED SLOW FLASH = System overheat ( >185 deg. F)
