Quickplate Module

Quickplate Module

Figure: Quickplate Module

The Quickplate Module attaches to a +1 Adaptor Module or Module Adaptor to provide RED BRICK or REDVOLT-V power support for EPIC/SCARLET. Unlike the Backpack Quickplate, the Quickplate Module does not require a connector cable or Backpack Baseplate. Use a battery-equipped DSMC Side Handle or a DSMC AC Power Adaptor to keep the camera running while hot swapping batteries.

The Quickplate Module also provides two (2) auxiliary ports to provide power for camera accessories. AUX ports draw power from an attached RED BRICK or REDVOLT-V if one (1) is attached. If a RED BRICK or REDVOLT-V is not attached, ports draw power from the BRAIN through the SEARAY connector.

WARNING: DO NOT attempt to power a third-party device without first verifying the cabling and connections are correct, since that may cause damage. Damage to the device, the module, or other components of the camera system caused by attempting to power a third-party device incorrectly may not be covered under warranty.

NOTE: The Quickplate Module requires that your camera is on firmware v5.1.14 or later.

Quickplate Module Connectors

The Quickplate Module is designed with two (2) industry-standard 2-pin 0B AUX ports to power camera accessories when shooting. The two (2) auxiliary connectors provide a maximum combined output of 3.8 A. For example, if one (1) port is drawing 2 A, the other can provide up to 1.8 A.

NOTE: Align the key and red mark on the AUX port with the key on the cable connector to connect.
