What the thread found

• Firmware 3.0 introduced a unified software platform for remote heads and the Trinity, increasing system complexity.
• An e-stop error can occur in Firmware 3.0 that completely shuts down the Trinity 2, even though it lacks a physical emergency stop button like the SRH or EVO systems.
• The overcurrent message appears on the RCP when this malfunction occurs, often accompanied by vibration and uncontrolled spinning of the head.
• Multiple operators reported major power issues after updating to Firmware 3.0.
• Several operators have chosen to remain on earlier firmware versions rather than upgrade to 3.0 due to stability concerns.
• The issue reportedly occurred within the first three uses of a Trinity system after the update.

Depends on

• Affects ARRI Trinity and Trinity 2 systems running Firmware 3.0.
• The e-stop logic is problematic specifically because Trinity lacks physical emergency stop hardware.
• Stability and feature compatibility depend on firmware version.
