Menu Wheel
When 'status text' is turned on for your URSA Mini Pro's front SDI output, you can use
the menu wheel to navigate many of the head up display features usually accessed via
the LCD touchscreen.
Simply press the menu wheel as you would a button to access your URSA Mini Pro's
head up display on an external monitor such as Blackmagic SmartView, Video Assist or
URSA Viewfinder. While the menu wheel is active, turn the wheel to select features
such as LCD monitor options, frame rate, ISO, white balance and tint. Press the wheel to
confirm selections and make additional changes, and use the 'back' button next to the
wheel to cancel. You can also use the back button to move up a menu level, or exit the
menu completely if you're at the top level. On URSA Mini Pro 4.6K, the menu will
automatically close after one minute of inactivity.
For more information on setting status text and the controls available, see the
'touchscreen controls' and 'monitor settings' sections of this manual.

Lock
Toggle this switch to lock all of the controls on the forward control panel to prevent
them from being accidentally adjusted while shooting. Move this switch to the lower
position to lock, and the upper position to unlock.
TIP
When shooting in busy or uncontrolled environments, you can lock your
URSA Mini Pro's forward control panel when you leave your camera
unattended. This ensures that your settings are not changed unintentionally
by others.

ISO, Shutter and White Balance Switches
These small switches are used to adjust your ISO, white balance, and shutter settings.
They are helpful when you want to make fast adjustments without taking your eyes off
the shot. Gently push the switches up or down to make setting adjustments.
The switches are spring loaded so they always return to a neutral position.
ISO
Push this switch up or down to adjust your camera's ISO setting. Pushing up will
increase the setting one interval, and pushing down will decrease one interval.
The available settings are 200, 400, 800 and 1600 for URSA Mini and 200, 400, 800,
1600 and 3200 on the URSA Mini Pro.
Shutter
Use this switch to adjust the camera's shutter angle or shutter speed, depending on
what you have selected in the setup menu. Pushing up will increase the shutter angle
or shutter speed to the next available preset, and pushing down will decrease the
shutter angle or shutter speed to the next available preset. Holding the switch up or
down will move more quickly through available values. There are twenty shutter angle
presets between 11.2 and 360 degrees.
TIP
Your URSA Mini Pro can also suggest flicker free shutter angles or shutter
speeds based on the power frequency in your region. These must be selected
through the LCD touchscreen menu. For more information see the
'touchscreen controls' section in this manual.
