Hasselblad Winder CW
The Winder CW (3044105) is a compact, ergonomically designed unit providing not only a motor drive facility but also a comfort­able and robust grip for the 503CW and 503CXi cameras.
It features single exposure, continuous exposure, multi-exposure and remote control modes. Remote control is achieved either by an electronic cord release or by a handy infrared transmitter – the Hasselblad IR Remote control (3044113), both providing consider­able freedom. The IR Remote Control additionally oers a remote mode-choice facility.
As the winder is set close to the camera body, it produces stabil­ity and balance for optimum hand held efficiency – the perfect requirement for vertical 6x4.5 shots. A removable strap oers extra security and is adjustable to suit personal requirements.
A special feature is the SAI (Self Adjusting Interface) that senses not only whether the camera is wound but also the unique mechanical status of the camera body and attached equipment, such as a lm magazine, for example.
The figures beside the small headings refer to the relevant illus­trations.

e Winder CW is supplied with an IR Remote control (3044113) and a wrist strap (3044118).
Batteries 2
e winder uses six 1.5V pen cells of ‘AA’ (LR6) type. Under normal conditions, alkaline batteries are recommended although lithium or rechargeable batteries (preferably nickel-metal hydride for envi­ronmental reasons) may also be used. Under very cold conditions, however, lithium or rechargeable nickel-cadmium batteries are recom­mended.
Move the battery holder catch clockwise and remove the battery holder. Insert batteries ensuring they are aligned in the correct manner (see moulded symbols for orientation). Replace battery holder and rmly press it into place while moving the catch counter clockwise as far as it will go until it clicks into position, locking the holder in place.
Under normal conditions new alkaline batteries should last for ap­proximately 3,000 exposures.
Attaching the winder 3, 4
Ensure the camera is fully wound. Remove the camera strap, winding crank and lens (see camera instruction manual). To avoid accidental damage, you may want to attach the front protective cover to the cam­era body until you become used to attaching the winder. Ensure that the red indexes on the winder coupling and bayonet mount will be in alignment when mounted. If they are not, press the release button on the winder once (in any mode except ‘L’). e coupling will then revolve and stop automatically in the correctly aligned position.
Insert the strap lug on the camera body in the winder’s mounting plate and move the winder into position so that the couplings on the camera and winder match. When the winder drops into place tightly against the camera body, rotate it clockwise a little until it snaps into position.
The winder immediately senses the status of the camera and reacts accordingly. is can be faintly heard as a mechanical reaction if the
Page 7

camera is already wound. If the camera was unwound, however, it will now be automatically wound (and an attached loaded lm magazine will be advanced by one frame, see note below).
Removing the winder 5
Remove the lens. Firmly grip the winder and depress the winder catch with the thumb. Rotate the winder counter clockwise, keeping the catch depressed, and withdraw the unit from the camera body.
Operation modes 6
e mode selector has ve positions:
L = Lo c k / o f f
e winder remains in the locked mode to avoid unintentional expo­sure when the camera is not being used or is being stored. Remove the batteries if you do not intend to use the winder for several weeks.
S = Si n g L e e x p o S u r e
Aer depressing the release button, the shutter is released. e cam­era is then automatically rewound aer relaxing the pressure on the release button.
With exposures of 1/4 second and longer, retain the pressure on the re­lease button until the complete exposure cycle is complete. See relevant section in camera instruction manual for details.
c = co n t i n u o u S e x p o S u r e
After depressing the release button, the shutter is released and the camera is automatically rewound. This operation repeats at the rate of approximately 0.7 frames per second if the release button remains depressed. e longest shutter speed possible in this mode is 1/8 sec.
M = Mu L t i p L e e x p o S u r e
After depressing the release button, the shutter is released but the camera is not rewound; consequently the lm is not advanced in the magazine. Aer inserting the magazine slide and removing the maga­zine, switch to either the ‘C’ or ‘S’ mode. e camera will now rewind in preparation for the new exposure. Reattach the magazine and remove the slide. If only one more exposure is required, then the switch may
Page 8

remain at ‘C’, but if several exposures are required, the mode switch must be set at ‘M’ again so that the process can be repeated.
rc = re M o t e co n t r o L
For use with the Hasselblad IR Remote Control only. In this position the winder’s modes are selected by way of the IR Remote Control unit and the manual release button on the winder becomes inoperative. As much more current is required in the ‘RC’ mode compared to the other modes, the winder should be switched back to the ‘L’ mode when not in use to conserve the batteries.
Failure to switch back to the ‘L’ mode, preferably, or any
mode other than ‘RC’ after use can drain the batteries completely in a matter of days.
Accessories
Wrist strap 7
The wrist strap (3044118) - (supplied) - is attached to the upper and lower strap lugs in a similar manner to the camera strap (see camera instructional manual for details of securing clip attachment and removal). e slightly angled securing clip should be attached to the upper strap lug.
Hasselblad IR remote control 8
e IR Remote control (3044113) –supplied– is very compact and pro­vides not only wireless remote release but also the capability of remote mode choice. at is to say, any one of the three winder modes (S, C and M) can be both chosen and changed without having to return to the camera position.
Additionally, the IR Remote control will only activate the winder, or winders, that have been programmed together with it. erefore any other camera/winder combination will remain inactivated by that particular remote control until programmed to do so. is means that several winders can be independently remotely controlled by their own individual controls without controlling other winders unintentionally as the signal from each control is unique.
Page 9

One control can be used for several winders, however, either independ­ently or together. In this case the code must be transferred to each winder individually.
To programme an IR Remote control code with a winder proceed as follows:
1. Attach winder (with batteries) to the camera.
2. Select RC mode on the winder.
3. Aim the IR Remote Control at one of the infrared sensors on the winder.
4. Depress both winder and IR Remote Control release buttons at the same time for 3–4 seconds.
A winder can be re-programmed at any time to receive a new code from another IR Remote control simply by repeating the programming pro­cedure with the new control.
Restrictions
With the winder attached, the following Hasselblad accessories cannot be used:
Cable release, Flashgun bracket 1, Quick-focusing handle
Certain studio flash units or slave units when set in the
IR trigger mode might immediately be fired by the signal from the IR Remote control and consequently will not be in synchronization with the shutter on the camera. In this case either make tests or use a conventional flash synchro­nization cable to connect the camera with the flash unit.
Release cord 9
e 3m long Release cord (3044123)—(optional extra)—is connected into the socket on the underside of the winder. It provides the same function as the manual release button. When activated, the winder car­ries out its operation according to the pre-selected mode (S, C, and M).
e socket is a conventional 3.5 mm jack plug socket (female) and so any switched cord with a conventional 3.5 mm triple-pole jack plug (male) may be used. See diagram for correct wiring conguration.

Troubleshooting
Temporary incorrect operation might be caused indirectly by a safe­guarding reaction from the SAI or directly as a result of one or more of the following:
e batteries have been inserted incorrectly e batteries are exhausted e batteries are nearly exhausted (see special note below regard-
ing batteries)
e magazine slide is still in place e lm is nished The mode selector is at RC when manual operation is being
attempted
If the problem persists, the following should also be considered:
In certain cases, the Winder CW may fail to wind the camera com-
pletely or even not at all, resulting in a locked condition where nei­ther the winder nor the lens can be removed. e situation is sim­ply corrected by depressing and immediately releasing the winder catch. is will reset the mechanism that will then slowly wind the camera to return it to normal status.
Occurrences such as a winding overload in the magazine or some-
thing falling between the release arm and the camera, for exam­ple, will cause erratic behaviour. If this happens, the winder stops automatically and aer a delay of 1.5 seconds, reattempts to slowly wind the camera. Check the condition of the magazine or camera for obvious problems. Frequent occurrence of this error without any obvious cause indicates that the camera, magazine or winder is in need of service.
If the winder operates unusually and you have checked the above
causes and remedies, try resetting the electronics by following the procedure below:
1. Set mode selector to S, C or M
2. Remove battery holder and lm magazine
3. Depress release button for 10 seconds
4. Re-insert battery holder
Page 11

If none of the above helps, or the problem recurs, then return the wind­er to a Hasselblad Authorized Service Center for service. Remember that in some cases (see above) the fault might originate in the camera or magazine mechanisms and so they too should be included in the service check.
Points to remember
The winder can neither be attached nor removed without re-
moving the lens rst.
There can be a reduction in the working range of the IR Remote
control if the winder is in direct sunlight or other extreme light­ing conditions. In these situations it is advisable to use a Release Cord (3044123) instead.
If the camera is in the unwound status (see camera manual) it
will automatically be wound by the winder when attached. This will advance the film in an attached magazine by one frame. To avoid the risk of losing a lm frame, check that the camera is wound before attaching the winder.
When the camera body and winder are separated it is possible
in some cases that their respective couplings can become ‘out of phase’ with each other. Ensure that the camera is fully wound before tting the winder and that the red indexes on the winder coupling and winder bayonet mount are aligned (see ‘Attaching the winder’).
With exposures of 1/4 second and longer, retain the pressure
on the release button (on the winder, the IR Remote control or Release cord) until the exposure is complete, before reducing the pressure and thereby allowing the auxiliary shutter in the camera body to close. See relevant section in camera instruction manual for details.
The camera is blocked automatically after the last lm frame in
the magazine has been advanced.
Camera speeds longer than 1/15 sec. should be avoided in ‘C’
mode.

Keep the mode selector set at ‘L’ when the camera is not in use or
is being stored to prevent battery drain or unintentional camera operation.
Remove the batteries if you do not intend to use the winder for
several weeks or longer.
