# LBUS Compatible Motors

Pre-requisites:

- Any LBUS compatible lens motors (cForce etc.)
- A LCUBE CUB-1
- A CinCraft Scenario LCUB-1 Cable

This configuration uses an LCUB-1 to interface between the motors and the Scenario system. To setup the system in this mode:

- Connect the LBUS compatible motors to the LCUB-1.
- Connect the CinCraft Scenario LCUB-1 Cable to the Serial port on the LCUB-1.
- Connect the other end of the CinCraft Scenario cable to the Encoders port of the Origin, or the Link if it is being used.
- Ensure that the motors are properly calibrated prior to using the lens in CinCraft Scenario.

# &#x20;Preston LCS

Pre-requisites:

- A Preston lens control system using a MDR-3 or MDR-4
- A CinCraft Scenario Preston Cable

This configuration interfaces between the MDR and the Scenario system. To setup the system in this mode:

- Connect the motors to the MDR-3 or MDR-4. Ensure that the motors are correctly calibrated
- Connect the CinCraft Scenario Preston Cable to the Serial port on the MDR unit
- Connect the other end of the CinCraft Scenario cable to the Encoders port of the Origin, or the Link if it is being used

# Tilta LCS

:::hint{type="danger"}
Never plug a Tilta Nucleus cable directly into the CinCraft Scenario equipment, only ever connect the CinCraft Scenario Tilta cable between the CinCraft hardware and the Tilta Nucleus system
:::

:::hint{type="danger"}
Ensure the CinCraft end of the cable is connected to the CinCraft equipment, connecting the cable backwards will cause damage to the CinCraft hardware
:::

Pre-requisites:

- A Tilta Nucleus-M lens control system
- A CinCraft Scenario Tilta Cable

![](https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/Qn0sdcVrDcDbwMFmH0oYn/vLuj8NE3U77mbUbGcv54F_image.png)

This configuration interfaces between the Tilta Nucleus motors and the Scenario system. To setup the system in this mode:

- Ensure that the motors are correctly calibrated.
- Connect the CinCraft Scenario Tilta Cable to the **EXT** port on the motors.
- Connect the other end of the CinCraft Scenario cable to the **Encoders** port of the Origin, or the Link if it is being used

:::hint{type="info"}
The Nucleus-Nano control system is not supported
:::

# Teradek LCS

Pre-requisites:

- A Teradek RT lens control system using a MDR.X
- The MDR.X must have Teradek RT Firmware 1.2.5 minimum
- A CinCraft Scenario Teradek Cable

![](https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/Qn0sdcVrDcDbwMFmH0oYn/WuYLKxy6AIHPQDdygBF1y_image.png)

This configuration interfaces between the Teradek MDR.X and the Scenario system. To setup the system in this mode:

- Ensure that the motors are correctly calibrated
- Connect the CinCraft Scenario Teradek Cable to the In-1 or In-2 port on the MDR.X.
- Connect the other end of the CinCraft Scenario cable to the Encoders port of the Origin, or the Link if it is being used
- For lens data to be correctly received by CinCraft Scenario, it is required to have "Feedback" enabled on the Teradek MDR device, this is activated using the following menu path:
  - Menu: Motors > Rx Config > IN1 Mode > FEEDBACK
