Phantom CineStation

The Phantom CineStation is the download station for the CineMag. This keeps the camera free for doing its job – capturing high-speed video.

A CineStation works by connecting it to a PC running the supplied PCC software via Gb or 10Gb Ethernet. The user can view each Cine stored on the CineMag, set in- and out-points to trim the Cines, and save the files to a connected hard disk drive. This process can also be fully automated.

The Phantom CineStation downloads CineMag footage, keeping the camera free for high-speed video capture.

To use a CineStation, connect it to a PC with the PCC software via Gb or 10Gb Ethernet. The user can view and trim each Cine stored on the CineMag. They can also save files to a connected hard drive. This process can be fully automated.

Phantom CineMag recording media manages large data volumes, improving high-speed imaging workflows in multiple ways:
  • Efficiency: The CineMag 5e transfers data at speeds up to 1.4 Gbps/sec, the fastest for Phantom cameras.
  • Reliability: Non-volatile memory protects data during power loss. A write-protect switch prevents accidental reformatting.
  • Hot-swappable: Swap CineMags during shoots to maximise image capture. Download later or use a dedicated workstation with CineStation IV.
  • Portability: No need to connect the camera directly to a computer workstation.
The CineMag supports two recording modes:
  • Loop Mode: Record into the camera RAM, review, and upload in seconds. Use with Multi-Cine and auto-save for full automation.
  • Direct Recording: For longer record times, use Run/Stop (R/S) mode to record directly to the CineMag at lower frame rates.
CONTROL
SOFTWARE Phantom PCC for control and download is included. During PCC installation, ensure the latest Phantom 10G Ethernet driver is selected in order to use the 10Gb network. The network setup and download process is identical to using a Phantom camera.
OPERATING SYSTEM PCC is Windows-only. 3rd-party Mac software download solutions are available separately.
WORKING WITH 10GB ETHERNET Take advantage of faster save times using a PC with a compatible 10Gbase-T PCIe card or a laptop with a Thunderbolt port. A 10Gb Ethernet to Thunderbolt adapter will make the 10Gb network connection available on the laptop for a fast, portable solution. Ensure the drives saving the data are fast enough to sustain 10Gb transfer rates – fast SSD drives are recommended.
