RCP Overview

Main View

White Balance

Path: MENU > PAINT > WHITE

Click the first row to control R/G/B with the encoders. Click the second row to switch to color temperature and tint.

You can control:

• Presets: step through preset color temperatures (2800K, 3200K, 3800K, 4500K, 5600K, 7000K, 9000K)
• Color Temp: select any color temperature based on the camera's steps
• Tint
• Action (menu): set the A and B boundaries (minimum/maximum) for the color temperature
• A/B: direct access to the A and B boundaries
• Slider / A-B encoder: move the color temperature between the A and B boundaries

Black Balance

Path: MENU > PAINT > BLACK

ISO/dB

Path: MENU > PAINT > Gain

Matrix

Path: MENU > PAINT > Matrix

You can change the presets and enable/disable the matrix with the ON/OFF button.

Gamma

Path: MENU > PAINT > Gamma

In "Gamma", you can change the R/B/M (master) gamma.

In "Tables", you can change the OETF and the tone curve.

note

The tone curve list is updated based on the color space selected in the camera. You can check it on the RCP in MENU > PAINT > Matrix > Preset (Rec709 in the official example).

Shutter

Path: MENU > PAINT > SHUTTER

You can change shutter on/off, shutter in speed or angle, and ECS.

White Clip

Path: MENU > PAINT > KNEE

Saturation

Path: MENU > PAINT > COLOR

LUT

Path: MENU > PAINT > LOOK

Once LUTs are uploaded to the RCP (see "3D LUT Import/Export in the RCP" in Integrating a 3D LUT Processor), you can browse the LUT list.

• Clear: sets the camera's LUT to None
• Set: uploads the selected LUT to the camera
• ON/OFF: toggles the LUT

REC / TC

Path: MENU > RECORD

You can see the camera's timecode and trigger recording from the RCP.

note

Select a group and toggle it with the "Group" button to trigger recording on all cameras in that group. This only applies to cameras configured/imported on the RCP, so users usually set up one RCP with all the cameras (unlimited/broadcast version) and use it as an MSU and for this recording control.

The next tab lists all cameras with their timecode and recording status.

RCP/RIO Setup

1. Connect the camera and your RCP/RIO to the same network.
2. Add the camera in the RCP Configuration UI and enter a custom number, name, etc.
3. Select the "Red" brand.
4. Select the "Komodo" or "V-Raptor" model.
5. Enter the IP address of your camera.

note

If your camera is in a different IP range from your RIO/RCP, see IP Configuration.

Once correctly connected, the block turns green.
