Pin configuration for ARRI camera 3-pin RS power and remote control port

20 years old. Gear and prices may have changed since.

What the thread found

  • The 3-pin RS connector on 24-volt ARRI cameras uses pin 1 for ground, pin 2 for +24 VDC power, and pin 3 for momentary remote start/stop control
  • Pin 3 also outputs a shutter pulse signal when the camera is running
  • The +24 VDC power on pin 2 is not regulated below 32 volts on Arricam models, making the actual voltage dependent on the battery supply feeding the camera

Depends on

  • Information applies specifically to ARRI cameras with 24-volt power systems
  • The unregulated voltage warning applies specifically to Arricam models
  • Connector type identified as FISCHER P/N S102A 052-130+ (3-pin)
