ARRI 416 Manuel D’Utilisation

Use of a mains unit is recommended for filming in the studio 

and when using electronic accessories with high power 

consumption.

•  First check that the correct mains voltage is set on the 

mains unit.

•  Ensure that the camera power is turned off.

•  Set the voltage switch on the mains unit to 24/26 V.

•  Plug the battery cable KC-20-S or the coiled battery 

cable KC-29-S into the power supply socket on the 

camera and into the 24/26 V socket on the mains unit.

Note: 

The NG 12/24 R was the original design that 

provided 12 & 24 volts out – this was superseded 

by the NG 12/26 R which outputs 12 & 26 volts. 

The NG 12/24 R can easily be upgraded to 

NG 12/26 R specification at an ARRI Service 

Centre.

The OBB-2 On-Board Battery attaches directly to the camera 

body by means of a quick change mechanism that can be 

easily operated with one hand. The OBB-2 incorporates a 

built-in power meter to indicate the state of charge, while 

an extra contact in the power connector communicates this 

and other information to the camera. When an OBB-2 is 

connected, display Mode 3 offers the choice of showing 

battery voltage (as normal) or battery capacity (in percent) 

or an estimation of how many more magazines the remaining 

charge can run. The OBB-2 is an intelligent 29.6 volt 

Lithium-Ion battery with a capacity of 80 Watt/hours. A 

fully charged OBB-2 will typically run seven magazines 

and last about four hours in Standby. Although the 416 

power connector has an additional contact it remains 

compatible with standard ARRI 24 volt power cables.
