7 First Use of the Sinar Hy6 System
Before you start using your Sinar Hy6 system, make sure that it is properly assembled, and
that a charged battery is inserted.
Fig. 5 / 1 Release mode
To put the camera into operation, select a shutter release mode
using the selector switch S1, Æ chapter 8.2.1 “Shooting Mode”.
The shutting-down of the camera by setting the selector switch S1
to “Off” is only necessary when the camera is transported, or when
it will not be in use for a longer time.
To wake up the camera, press the Release Button B1 2 to the
first pressure point.
When the Release Button B1 is pressed to switch on the
camera, no image will be captured.

After a period of inactivity of about 10 seconds, the camera will be set to the sleep mode
(depending on the selected power save mode). To wake up the camera, press the Release
Button B1 again.
When working with a Sinarback eMotion, switch on the Sinarback. Press the button
“Power” at the Sinarback.
The Sinarback 54 MC can only be operated in tethered mode, and has to be switched on
from the computer. Make sure that the suitable capturing software (Sinar CaptureShop™
or Sinar eXposure™) is ready for operation.
Camera functions can be selected by using the selector switches, and by selecting the
functions from the menu. The most frequently used functions are available with the
selector switches at the camera body, and will be mentioned as Direct Functions in the
following.
To select a function from the menu, set the selector switch to the red dot 1 and press the
control button 2 in the respective operational area to open the menu. Further functions
can be selected from the menu using the Front 4 and the Rear Control Wheel 5 W1 and
W2 at the hand grip, and will be mentioned as Options in the following.
The menu structure of the Sinar Hy6 system is designed to provide easy and intuitive
access to the functions. Functions are not nested and do not include toggle key functions,
which means that the control wheel will block at the end of a selection row. In this way,
you will be able to find all functions intuitively after working with your camera for a while.
