CAUTION: Refer all service and repair to
qualified RED service personnel. To reduce
the risk of electric shock, and damage to
the camera or accessories, DO NOT attempt to perform any servicing other than
any procedures that are recommended in
the operating instructions.
CAUTION: Proper camera ventilation requires a minimum 1/2” (1.25 cm) clearance between the camera ventilation
openings and external surfaces. Verify
that objects that can block the fan intake
and exhaust ports do not impede airflow.
Failure to permit adequate airflow may result in overheating of the camera, degraded operation and in extreme situations,
damage to the camera.
DO NOT operate or store near any heat sources such as radia-
tors, heat registers, stoves, or any other apparatus that produce heat. Store in a protected, level and ventilated place.
Avoid exposure to temperature extremes, damp, severe vibration, strong magnetic fields, direct sunlight or local heat sources during storage. Remove any batteries from the camera before storage. Recommended storage and usage temperatures
for your camera, lenses and other accessories are:
‒ Operating range: 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F)
‒ Storage range: -20°C to 50°C (-4°F to 122°F)
If there are any performance issues with your camera or accessories when operating within this temperature range, please file
a support ticket on support.red.com.
The SIDE HANDLE, SIDE SSD Module, Rear Modules and Lens
Mount are NOT HOT SWAPPABLE – meaning you cannot remove or install them while the camera is powered on. Before

OVERVIEW
INTRODUCTION
RED Digital Cinema now offers the DSMC FAN 2.0 Upgrade for your Digital Still and Motion Camera (DSMC®)
BRAIN. The DSMC FAN 2.0 Upgrade is available for SCARLET, EPIC, and DRAGON DSMC BRAINS. You may
upgrade your DSMC BRAIN with one (1) or both of the following fans:
DSMC FAN 2.0 (BOTTOM): Replaces the bottom fan with a more powerful, efficient, and quieter fan that
allows you to run at a low noise level for a longer period of time. The bottom fan is specific to your corresponding camera model and is distinguished by a SCARLET®, RED EPIC®, or RED DRAGON™ coin and grill.
DSMC FAN 2.0 (TOP): Replaces the top fan with a more powerful, efficient, and quieter fan. Provides you
with a quiet, effective cooling solution that allows for extended recording sessions at a low noise level.
RED Digital Cinema will perform this installation for you, free of charge. Please contact your Bomb Squad representative for complete details.
