Hi All,
I'm having a weird issue with a Ronin build that I haven't been able to troubleshoot. The iris seems to jump back and forth to set values on occasion. Focus handset is set to OFF. Iris handset has control of the motor. When I set focus handset to control iris the problem goes away.
Set up is as follows:
Ronin 2 power out to LCUBE-1 CUB-1
Ronin 2 power to Teradek 3000xt
From LCUBE CUB-1
Yesterday I updated my Cmotion hand unit and rf motor to the new V6.0.2 firmware from Cmotion. Everything updated correctly except for my Camin which after updating turned off and wont turn back on. I had this same issue when trying to update to V6.0 last year as well.
When powering the Camin and attaching a cforce mini motor via the LBUS port the mini motor receives power, however the Camin still appears off with no lights or screen. Has anyone ran into this?
Hello Everyone , im looking to buy Cforce pro or Plus , if anyone want to sale it please let me know
Hello Youssef,
I have 2 complete Cpro kits, each with its own Cpro RF motor and 2 Cforce Mini motors.
I have every possible cable with spares for all cameras.
I have license for Arri, Sony Venice, and Red.
Many custom accessories.
Extras and backups of all parts.
Each kit has its own hard shell travel ready case.
All in excellant condition!!!

I hope you guys can help me! I contacted cMotion, but they are already on vacation.
unfortunately we had a horrible shoot yesterday because my CPro One connection kept shutting down irregularly.
My 1AC and I couldn't really pinpoint the problem.
Symptoms:
Lens Data was suddenly gone, but focus could still be adjusted, zoom no longer, no camera control either.
After a very helpful phone call with cmotion support I can say that we had at least two issues parallel maybe even three. 1. the data license was not installed correctly. This was due to a coding change in the license file I received. It is possible to install this file “half”, so the manual says to check this in the “About” menu of the cPro after installation. A downgrade to 5.0 may help, or a rewritten file containing all the other files. I managed to install it eventually by trying 7 times on 6.02.
2. loss of contact to a motor leads to the assumption that either the LBUS socket of the cPro or the cForce is broken. It often occurs on older models that do not have the new upgraded “movable” socket. Do not use L-shaped elbow cables. This is the reason why cMotion does not sell them!
(3.) Even 2 motors at 14.4V 10A can be very current hungry during calibration or fast runs. Always use two current inputs at both ends of the chain.

If you connect the camin to the hand unit's lbus port, does the hand unit still recognize the camin as an lbus device to reflash the firmware?
