Teradek RT Thumbwheel X Reverse Wired Controller

Teradek RT Thumbwheel X Reverse Wired Controller is a compact left-handed control unit for Teradek RT Latitude and MK3.1 lens-control systems. From the supplied source, it can operate any focus, iris, or zoom axis and mounts directly to a gimbal tube, rosette, or rig handle through its integrated clamp.

The low-profile layout keeps lens control within reach of the operator without adding a large hand unit to the rig. A 5-pin LEMO connector handles the wired connection, while the red button can be used for motor start/stop control or for setting A/B limits on motor rotation.

Why It Helps

On a gimbal or handheld build, the operator often needs access to lens control without taking a hand away from the rig. The reverse layout places the thumbwheel in a left-handed position, making it easier to manage focus, iris, or zoom from the handle side of the setup.

The integrated clamp keeps the controller close to the operator and avoids the need for a separate mounting bracket. It can attach to gimbal tubing, a rig handle, or an ARRI rosette, which gives the camera team more freedom when laying out a compact control position.

The red button adds another useful control point. It can trigger motor start/stop or define A/B limits, so the operator can manage more than just lens movement from the same small controller.

The wired 5-pin LEMO connection is also useful in builds where a direct, fixed control path is preferred. Combined with the low-profile CNC-milled body, it keeps the control surface compact and well suited to mobile camera work.
