Fit the lens FE80 and the sensor on the camera body. Connect the battery comp. cable and the sync. cable to the camera body. Put the camera in front of the light source.

NOTE! The lens must be on

. Check that the lens does not have any part of an aperture blade visible at full aperture. Also minor shading can cause considerable errors.

Adjustment of light level for the light source

Before testing shutter speed, flash sync and C-position the light source must be set at a light level to fit the sensor. When any of these tests is selected the screen will display:

Is the lightbox adjusted ? [Y]

Press N for No (or Y for Yes if the light level has already been set). Pre-release the camera. Increase or decrease the light level until

Light level OK. Press any key to continue is displayed on the screen.

Alternatively, use the LED-indicators on the sensor:

Only red LED lit Low light level

This function is a help for trouble-shooting. The camera is in test mode, i.e. the electrical devices do not work as in normal operation. Therefore the C-position should be used for 203 and 205. For 202 curtain release is controlled from the test system. This will cause a noticeable delay compared to normal function.

Position of camera "switches" are displayed on the screen. Normal position, i.e. camera tensioned, is displayed with normal characters (blue). Opposite position is displayed with bold characters (red).

General

The Service Test System can be used to test camera status, speed ring, timer indicator, current consumption, shutter speeds, flash sync and C-position basically in the same way as for 202/203/205.

Flash metering and viewfinder signal are tested as for 503CX/553ELX.

Note however some differences as described below.

Also note that a communication error may occur when tensioning the camera very fast. This is due to the fact that the camera electronics, to extend battery lifetime, is turned off directly after each exposure. Tensioning a little bit slower will give the test system enough time to restart the camera and the error will be avoided.

HASSELBLAD 2003FCW, 2000FCW/FCM

General

The Service Test System can be used for testing shutter speeds and C-position.

Basically this can be done in the same way as for the 202/203/205. However, there are some differences, mainly due to the fact that the test system can not read camera settings from the battery compartment.

Basic set-up

Fit the lens F80 and the sensor on the camera body. Put the camera in front of the light source.

NOTE! The lens must be on ∞

Adjustment of light level for the light source

As for 202/203/205, ref. to par. 4.2.

"SHUTTER"

As for 202/203/205, ref. to par. 4.11 with the following differences:

Deviation (EV) is calculated from nearest half step. Note that this may differ from the speed ring setting. If so, the difference must be added to give correct deviation.

Example:

Speed ring setting is 1/2000 s. Measured deviation is -0.20 EV from

1/1500 s.

Deviation from 1/2000 is 0.5 EV - 0.2 EV = +0.3 EV.

When using the average function (ref. 4.16) there will not be an automatic

RESET when turning the speed ring.

"C-POSITION"

As for 203/205, ref. to par. 4.15 with the following difference:

There will be no warning on the screen if light level is low or high. Low light level will result in no response from the test system. High light level will result in a minor measure error.

NOTE! A CF-lens must be used.

NOTE! * Use an Acute-Matte focusing screen for PME3 and PME5.

* Using a 202/203/205 camera body will give an error of approx. 0.1

EV due to the partially transparent mirror and is therefore normally not recommended.

NOTE! Lens on ∞

"LIGHT METER"

Select "LIGHT METER".

Set the lens aperture at 2.8 (max.).

Set lens/camera to B (or C).

Set the light source at an optional light level.

Select an optional ISO and fmax value on the PME.

Use the arrow keys to set ISO and fmax on the screen at the same values.

Press the camera release button and keep pressed to measure the light level of the light source. Each measurement is indicated by a short beep and corresponding EV is displayed on the screen. Release the button after the first beep or keep pressed to make continuous measurements while adjusting the light level.

When the button has been released and the camera has been tensioned, the display of the PME may be read and compared with the reading on the screen.

For optimum result the two readings should be equal.

Repeat for different settings of the ISO/fmax dial. The lens, however, must always be kept on its max. aperture.

Basic set-up

May 2000

Connect the battery compartment cable to the adapter 971 006. Connect the test cable and the battery connector to the PME90.

NOTE!

* Use an Acute-Matte D focusing screen. (Code No. 42204).

Split image or micro prism focusing screen must not be used.

* Use the tube 905 018 for incident light metering.

* Push the PME90 all the way in when mounting it on the camera.

* Use a 500 series camera and a CF80 or F80 lens. Using a 202/203/205 camera body will give an error of approx. 0.1 EV due to the partially transparent mirror and consequently are these cameras not recommended.

* At low light levels ambient light may cause measuring error.

Use a black cover or dark room.

* Keep the light source switched on for at least 5 minutes before calibrating.

HASSELBLAD C/CF/CB/CFE/Cfi LENSES

General

May 2000

The Service Test System can be used to measure shutter speeds on all above mentioned lenses for the Hasselblad system provided that you have the special

C-shutter sensor (option).

Preferably use a 500 camera body (the 200 and 2000 models with speed ring in

C-position will however also work in most cases). The system can also be used to measure shutter speeds on the SWC camera.

Basic set up

Connect the C-shutter sensor to the PC-board and fit to the camera body.

Fit the lens to the camera and place in front of the light source.

11.3 Light level calibration

The C-shutter sensor has 16 measuring ranges to cover lenses with different maximum apertures without changing the level of the light source.

Keep the shutter open. Press any key to confirm

When “C/CF/CB/CFE/Cfi Lenses“ is selected the screen will display:

Set the lens speed ring to B (or F) and keep the release button pressed while pressing any key. The system will now automatically select the best measuring range and “Light Calibration OK“ will be displayed. Release the button to close the shutter.

The calibration procedure can be repeated any time by pressing “F1“. This should be done when a new lens with different maximum aperture is used.

(The measuring range can also be changed manually with the arrow keys.

Note that the LED-indicators on the sensor have the same function as for the standard sensor.)

Revision 3

11.4 Shutter speed measurement

If light level calibration is done correctly the screen will display:

RELEASE the shutter closes.

May 2000

Press the release button. For long speeds be sure to keep the button pressed until

The measured speed is shown on the screen.

Note! Deviation (EV) is calculated from nearest step. This may differ from the speed ring setting. If so, the difference must be added to give correct deviation

.

Example

Encl. 3 INSTALLATION

Requirements for PC

The Hasselblad Service Test System has been designed to operate on computers like IBM/XT/AT and compatible. However, we have found that the system will not work on some computers claiming to be IBM-compatible. We therefore recommend that you check the following before buying.

Requirements: The I/O-bus read address signal has to be valid for at least 500 ns.

One free full length ISA slot.

For some PC:s this is selectable from a “set-up menu“. If so, the requirement can normally be fulfilled by selecting a lower I/O-clock frequency or selecting an additional I/O read wait state.

If you can not get this information from your PC supplier we suggest that you try the system before buying. If the requirements are not fulfilled, the system will respond with a “failed“ at the “fifo“ part of the self test.

PC-board

WARNING! The PC-board is sensitive to elctrostatic discharges. Always store it in the special wrapping. When handling it use ground connected wrist band.

Follow the PC Guide to Operations and install the PC-board accordingly. Note the following if other PC-boards are installed:

Check that the PC provides sufficient power. The max. consumption of the STS is: voltage max. current

Encl. 4 MISCELLANEOUS

Colour screen

When started the Service Test System will automatically use colour text if a colour screen is connected. However, a PC using a monochrome EGA/VGA screen may be interpreted as having a colour screen with bad readability as result.

This can be avoided by typing "VHABSTS M" to start the system.

External power for the Winder CW adapter

Normally, the Winder CW adapter will function with power from the PC. For some PC:s, however, an external adapter is required. Please contact Victor

Hasselblad AB, Technical Support Department for more information.
