Using Ronin2 with start stop remote I can sucesfully triger the Alexa Mini and other cameras.
But not Amira. Control connector on Amira is 3 pin lemo and it is different than 4 pin on Alexa mini.
Any block sheme for Amira wiring 3pin RC connector or any available cable from Mini 4 pin to Amira 3pin connector ?

best
Alex

Dear Alex,

for ALEXA Mini the Start/Stopp is triggered via the EXT. This is where you connect the "Ronin 2 ARRI Alexa Mini Start/Stopp Cable". Here's the PIN-Out for the EXT (taken from our Manual):

It is a totally analogue short on R/S vs. ground.


AMIRA uses the default ARRIFLEX film camera 3-Pin RS over a Fischer connector where you could adapt to.
Same procedure R/S vs. ground.
AMIRA does not support Mini's EXT-connector since the middle PIN (7) is missing, too bad I know.
