CONTROLS IN DETAIL

Battery Check Button(1) and LED Indicators(9)

To check battery power, depress the battery check

button. If both LED's light up, the power is

sufficient to provide the fastest firing rates.

If only one LED comes on, you can still use the

MD-4, but at slower rates. If neither LED lights

up, the batteries should be changed for a fresh

set. The LED's also indicate other camera func-

tions. One LED will light up: 1) each time the

film is wound after a shot is taken; 2) when the

film reaches the end of the roll and needs rewind-

ing; 3) when the frame counter reaches "0"; or 4)

when auto-rewinding is stopped with the optional

MF-6 Camera Back.

Note: One LED will also hght up if the batteries become so weak

that the motor dNve can no longer advance the hlm and just stops

during the course of shooting.

Electrical Terminals

The MD-4 is provided with three separate electri-

cal terminals.

1) Magazine back terminal (19)

Located at the bottom of the motor drive's grip,

the magazine back terminal allows a magazine back

to be connected to the MD-4's electrical system.

2) External power terminal (23)

The smaller of the two terminals on the front of

the motor drive's base, the externalpower termi-

nal allows the MA-4 AC/DC Converter to be con-

nected to the MD-4 for extended studio shooting.

3) Remote terminal (24)

The larger of the two, the remote terminal allows

a variety of remote control devices to be at-

tached.
