Hi Laird
I'm shooting Alexa 35 with my CineRT.
If CineRT looses a reading it goes to 0:00.
So if in focus tracking mode the motor will throw the focus to near limit.
All equipment should be latest firmware:
Alexa 35: Sup 2.0.0
Alexa Mini motor: sup 2.0
Hi-5: sup 3.0.3
Base unit: 24.06
Mini motor connected to camera through Lbus cable.
CineRT connected to camera through Serial to Y-cable (Blue).
It's the first time I'm using this configuration with the new Hi-5 firmware.
Cheers,

Hi Henrik. Are you connected via an LCUBE or directly into the serial port of the Alexa 35? And what serial output are you using (Classic or Hi-Speed?). Please le me know and I will check with our contacts at ARRI - as a "NT" value should simply hold at the last distance value until a new distnace value is obtained and not go to a zero distance value.
