How To Get Help
Read the Documentation provided on the CD-ROM.
Rest the cursor over any item on the screen, and a small explanation will pop up. We call this
"Quick Help". Once you are familiar with the RPC and Quick Help starts to annoy you, disable it by
choosing Quick Help from the View menu. The Quick Help item in the View menu has a checkmark
when it is enabled, no checkmark when it is disabled.
The Camera and Compensation menus contain help information.
The Preferences and Connect to Camera windows have their own Help buttons that provide useful
tips and hints.
The Help menu contains a Ramp Tutorial and a Reverse Ramp Tutorial.
Send an email to rpc@arri.com, or contact your local ARRI representative.
How to Create a New Ramp
Start the Ramp Preview Controller (RPC).
The RPC stores a number of ramps in a file called a “Ramp Archive”. Only one Ramp Archive can
be open at a time. The open Ramp Archive will be displayed in the Ramp Editor window, and its
name will be displayed in the Ramp Editor’s title bar (see picture below).
If you do not see the Ramp Editor window, choose “Ramp Editor” from the “View” menu.
To create a new ramp to be added to this ramp archive, click the “New” button.
Enter a name for the ramp in the Ramp menu.
