Fred Davis

Better living through Sardonica! Many of you may remember the EXCELLENT customer service provided by Fred Davis with his company "Production Cable Services" Having acquired MS, and then partner/wife Orchid essentially abandoning him, Fred once again rises from the ashes, phoenix-like to start: Chrysalis Productions. Champion Brother-in-law William Iversen has stepped up to the plate to take on the soldering/production duties, keeping me on as consigliere. My database, my excellent reputation among customers and suppliers alike all transfer to Chrysalis. Chrysalis Productions 10401 Slater Ave. #208 Fountain Valley, CA 92708 714-580-5462 W williamgeiversen@gmail.com William is also available via Facebook. B)

B) I gotta agree.Very amusing, & kinda encouraging. Classic gutter-tech. B)

Hey now, Some readers may remember Production Cable Services, makers of fine interface cabling. Founder/owner Fred Davis contracted MS, at first manageable, then proceeding to true disability. His partner, in life as well as business, determined that she hadn't the tolerance nor capacity ( & surely not the incentive) for life with a partial quadriplegic, and so she secured his long-term care by institutionalizing him. He now resides in what is essentially a long term health care facility, basically in isolation. Fred's grit and sardonic nature has served him well in establishing a congenial rapprochement with staff, Facebook contacts, and the increasing number of fans for his blog "Another Day In Paradise™" Several old customers have made the effort to contact Fred, for which he is supremely appreciative. So, NRN but I'd love to hear from old Friends. 562-277-5294 for VOX, or find me on Facebook. Thanks for everything, Fred Davis

LEMO = FFA1S302CLL = 2pin split gender (like on a Panavision) HIROSE=HR10A7P6P

Glad to hear he's rehabbed (sic) to the point he's working. BRAVO!

Excellent start. Lemme know if/when I can build U anything. 8-) *sigh* always marketing.....

Thank you Thank youThank you Thank you. Here in the foundry, there is much rejoicing.

Somebody post the pin-out, for fork's sake.

Just spoke with Mark Playdon @ FFV. He was very helpful! (949) 852-8404. Me, I'm pleased to learn the interface. (type M coax = power (big range), RCA = Video) looks like a VERY accessable bit o' gear. 8-)

Let's hope Production hears about it and Erwin's phone starts ringing. 8-)

Congrats on getting yer gear. At the risk of being inappropriately marketing-oriented, Please don'y hesitate to contact me if PCS can be of service. :rolleyes:

Ozzzziiie!!! B)

So what am I, chopped liver?! I have all tool needed, as well as mucho experience. And contracting me to do this sort of thing qualifies as a mitzvah. So call me

This seems to be the prollem with the ARCHOS recorders, as well. Modification of the docking station base cable appears to be structurally sound, but many customers report no video signal getting to the deck, Customer research indicates the problem as being video signal level (in dB?) The recorder appears to want a specific signal (dB?), and won't recognize anything else. No response to several emails to ARCHOS engineering. *sigh* 8-(

Very sad to read of this shockingly unexpected loss of a friend. I always welcomed a visit from Matt, @ the CIT shop or @ my home. Well. FUQUE!! is all I can inarticulately say. My world is lessened..... DAMN!

Oh, hell, Mark U make me blush 8-) Thanx 4 the positive words; I owe U a capuccino 8-)

Assuming you are talking about the small "RS" port on the 24 volt ARRIs. 1 = Ground 2 = +24 vdc (be careful, on Arricams this is NOT regulated below 32 volts, so it depends on what the battery is feeding the camera) 3 = Remote Start/Stop [momentary] (also output for shutter pulse when camera runs) Hope this helps, Matt I confirm Matt's post/ those are the correct contact assignments on the FISCHER P/N S102A 052 -130+ (3-pin). As U can imagine, I have alot os information about pin assignments, and I urge U to contact me with any questions.

Dude, 's common frustration getting CIT on the phone these days. If I remember correctly, (a long shot), the piece was machined by AFM Machining 340 Hearst Dr. Oxnard CA 93030 805-278-2708 Please telephone for more details (P/N#, etc. ). Taalk to Gordon Heck. But call me first, 'K?

<spit take> Ah!HAHAHAHAHAHAHAhahaha u crack me up, home slice, Looking forward to discussing that DVD I lent U 8-). PLUR

I concur- 310 374 5711

189$ and he used all my connectors (Lemo and Archos), so add up another 70/100$ for the Lemo plug and you are around the same price as a gently used Archos unit on Ebay. How many times the cables for a device costs us more than the device itself? History just tends to repeat itself... Actually, the price quoted by Frederic reflects discount particular to that one construction. SRP for that mod is approx $110, you provide the base hub cable

What's that tell ya?.............VAPORWARE

1 = G 2 & 11(bridged) = +DC 3 = VID 4 = =VID Grd
