I have my first "live" to tape show next week, tethered triax etc. 8 cameras including myself and the jib. Does anyone have any tips, suggestions, or thoughts. The format is one performer on stage at a time, taping over two hours with six hours of set-up and rehearsal. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

In my day to day set up of my telescoping post I often question why I am able to extend the post and allow it to be out of alignment. Even with the witness marks I always have to eyeball my set up to make sure that the monitor/battery/top stage are all in the same plane. Am I the only operator that would appreciate post extension that maintained the allignment of all components?

According to the manual you want to use this option when a Ni-cad has been over-discharged and the charger indicates that the battery is faulty. I have personally used it after fast charging one of my batteries and I could only get two of the three green lights to illumintate. One cycle in the recovery charge brought all three greens. I guess I should note that this was with the AR301 and a 28.8V batt. Doug

The charger will begin the maintenance charge automatically after all the connected batteries are charged. The recovery charge must be activted by holding the recovery switch for longer than five seconds and is shown by the STANDBY and CHARGING indicators flashing alternately. Hope that helps. Doug
